 Well my first question would be has she seen a picture of you yet? If she has then she will at least know what you look like and what to expect. If she hasnt then maybe send her a pic so if she does change her mind at least it wont be as bad as if she had let you down after you had met each other.
I guess honesty might be the best option here - maybe when you are emailing/texting etc drop into conversation how you have lost xxxx and are wanting to lose xxx more over the next months/years. Talk about how you have been for a run/been to the gym etc. This will give her the idea that you are trying to lose weight and she should get the picture that you are not the skinniest guy around!
If you really like each other and she is a decent person then it shouldnt be a problem to her, but physical attraction does play a big part in a relationship so you might have to be prepared for her not to be interested. You will only really find out how you feel about each other once you have met, so if you are not feeling brave enough to tell her about your weight issue then just go ahead and arrange to meet up. That way she might be a little surprised at first but you could have such an amazing time together that she wont even care!
I hope this helps and good luck!
