77 lbs GONE forever!!! Pic comparison....and BATHING SUIT photo!!

Monday, March 07, 2011

ok so My starting weight was 248 after I had My second daughter. Over the past few months the scale has dropped and dropped....NOW IT IS 171!!! I am done 77 lbs in 8 months. I am beyond proud of how far I have come...I have NOT BEEN THIS SMALL in at least 6 years...I am smaller now then when I met my husband! ...smaller then my wedding...and smaller now after 2 children!!! PROUD IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT!!

My routine has been running occasionally....MAINLY DVD home workouts 3-4x a week....nutrisystem (have had 3 months of food over the past 7 months) or 1600 calories daily ....also Breastfeeding

First time in YEARS I tried a bathing suit on purpose...and did not cry or want to vomit at my looks!




postpartum belly shots...how it has changed over 8 months...My BEFORE belly shot was never taken...it started at 4 months.




Me the day I delivered my 2nd daughter and then me yesterday at my daughters baptism!



again a photo of just born...and then 8 month at her baptism



MOTIVATION AT its finest!

    You look awesome. I am past proud of you. I am so wishing to see those figures on the scale. When and if I get to 100 anything there will be a problem keeping myself still.

Keep up the excellent work. You are an inspiration.

    Wow, congrats on your progress!!!

I've heard differing opinions on Jillian's Yoga DVD; what is your general impression of it? Is it a good yoga workout, or would you put it more into strength training?

    emoticon emoticon How exciting for your weight loss. It is so much fun to buy smaller pants. I'm at the point where things are getting quite baggy. It is so different than going to my closet and finding things tight.

Have a great weekend and enjoy yourself looking and feeling GREAT!

DAY 6/3O DONE! DVD a day challenge!

Monday, February 28, 2011

Well today marked 6 out of 30 days in a row I have worked out! The scale went up some...But Hubby says it is muscle ...we shall see! :) I feel like super woman/ super mom at this point! I am worth this and I am going to succeed! I started this journey 8 months ago...OBESE! Now I am soooooo close to "healthy BMI" it is insane! I am 174 10 lbs away from healthy....164 is the TIP of the BMI range for my height...I CAN DO THIS!

8 months ago 248
Now 174

Goal 164! ....then maybe lower :)


OH yeah today's video was 30 DAY SHRED LEVEL......3 wow one hell of a workout!!
