Quote  |  Reply

So today, I have officially passed the halfway mark for my weight loss.  I am 24.2 pounds down with 23.8 left to go!!!

I started out in December at 178 pounds, this morning I weighed 153.8!  I can't even explain the feeling, just so proud and excited...and more determined than ever.

It's amazing how counting calories has become simply part of my routine...I don't even think about it anymore, just natural to do.  I am hoping to reach my goal in October/ November.

Unfortunately I don't have my beginning stats but here's what I can show you:

 2/16
Weight    168.4
Chest    40
Below Chest    35
Bicep Left    12
Bicep Right    12.5
Waist    30.5
Belly Button    33
Hips    41
Thigh Left    25.5
Thigh Right    25.5
Calf Left    17
Calf Right    17


5/19
Weight  153.8
Chest  39  (-1)
Below Chest 33   (-2)
Bicep Left  11.5  (-.5)
Bicep Right  11.5 (-1)
Waist  28  (-2.5)
Belly Button 30 (-3)
Hips  39  (-2)
Thigh Left 24 (-1.5)
Thigh Right 24 (-1.5)
Calf Left  15 (-2)
Calf Right  15 (-2)

 

I believe that's 19 inches lost in 14.6 pounds :)

congratts!!!

 

I had a good day today too

I weighed in at 147 on the digital scale and 145 WITH SHOES on the non-digital scale

this means that I am officially right on the line of normal weight and overweight on my BMI index

I still have a ways to go.. i'd like to lose 25-30lbs because i'm pretty short

but whenever I get a weight loss like this it just makes me feel like it actually IS possible and there isnt something wrong with me that I just can't lose weight and that I should give up

 

:):)

I have some money in a savings account, and I keep adding money that i'm not spending on new clohtes right now into it

and  the first thing i'm going to do when i hit my goal weight is hit up some really high end stores and just spend like crazy on some amazing new clothes

yeah i can't wait to get clothes either...that's a really good idea to put money aside for it now.  If only I could save...hahaha just got a full time job so I'll be able to put some away pretty soon.

 

Thanks for the idea!!
