January 2012-Today

Lost 45lbs

Wow! Amazing! Not even sure how I got here. 174lbs I'm honestly impressed with my follow thru only 19lbs to Medi goal.

Stretchmarks

Are marks...... that will forever remind you of how big you once were. My thighs and boobs are covered. Thank God my tummy doesn't have any from being prego (shocking) because my tummy and my booty have become some of my favorite features of my body. Another week and.its going smoothly.

Walk this way...

Walking has become an obsession. I aim to get in 10 miles a week which is typically 2 miles at a time however I walked my two tonight and I could have kept going, I told Russ maybe we have worked up to 3miles now??? Yay! On the downside my heart rate monitor broke :( guess that's what I get for buying cheap ugh!
This week I slightly fell off my plan I need to hit it hard this week and for the next 20lbs I feel really good but I am not at goal yet. Chugga chugga chug!

Inches Update

Belly button 41-32.5 (8.5 inches)
Hips 49-41.5 (7.5 inches)
Left high thigh 30-23 (7 inches)
Left mid thigh 25-20 (5 inches)
Chest 38-32 (6 inches)
Left arm 16-13 (3 inches)

Overall 37inches
I had to do this today because the scale has not been nice the past two days and honestly I have not been nice to myself. I have learned that even when not losing weight the inches keep melting off, must happen when I sleep ;) However I still need to kick my own ass! I'm over it today I have had enough "treats" this weekend, I'm not in maintenance yet soooooo back to the grind. 

10 years ago

Today I weigh what I wieghed 10 years ago. That doesn't mean i wear the same size jeans though...weight definitely has a way off coming and going and never in the same places as before.
10 years ago I wieghed 176lbs when I met Russ and wore a size 12 in jeans. Today I wear a 14 in jeans and a size Med or large in shirts. I'm so freaking proud of myself right now. I'm proud to have my curves back to where they were. My skinny-er waist line with bigger boobs and bigger butt ya know my 36/24/36 not quite those sizes but one day!  Still a 20lb(maybe 30) journey ahead of me not stopping yet.  Everyday is a struggle ...I am obsessed with my scale, clothes don't fit right and I'm overwhelmed but I keep saying I'm so worth it and that gets me through to the next day.

Me...lovin me

Having a fantastic week thus far I've walked 6 miles since Friday and even survived Easter brunch at my mom n dads. I'm just melting at this point :)

14's WHAT??????

Today I was at Target browsing the clothes and I just grabbed a pair of size 14 Capri jeans just thinking ya right but why not lets just see how close the buttons even come together and well.....they slid on and freaking buttoned!!! I could sit and breathe in them! What?????!!!!!! I think that's when the shock set in. I honestly don't feel that thin hence the fact I was certain the buttons wouldn't even reach eachother. This just confirms my hard efforts do pay off. I grabbed the jeans and a blue shirt and now want to get yellow accessories and yellow shoes for Easter! Im not gonna lie I feel amazing right now. Hubby is on his way home and we will go get our walk in. Happy Friday!
