S/C/G: 137/130.2/118

Height: 5'6

Default The Work IS Paying Off!

I have been trying to get in shape for a long time and lose the last stubborn pounds! Last year I hit my high point at 160 and then through counting calories and doing Pilates, I was down to 135. I have maintained between 135-138, but I didn’t like that I kept going back up and bouncing around!

So when my husband left for Afghanistan I said to myself “Lindsey it is time to get your butt in motion”. To make a long story short he is coming home in October for my birthday and even though I was doing 4 ½ miles a couple times a week I wasn’t doing much more than that.

But over the last two weeks I have really stuck to working out and to watching what I am putting in my mouth and this morning I got on the scale and it said 129.2!!! I am out of the 130s range! And I am so very excited! I just needed someone to share the good news with!
