I joined the ChristmasChallenge thread back in October. At that time i'd just come back from a cycling trip in cambodia and felt fit (see 'before pics') but was horrified to see the photos when i got back from holiday as i didn't realise how much weight i'd put on during the year! It really is amazing how you can mis-see yourself in the mirror, but see yourself properly in a photo.
Now i'm still similar fitness, but have lost 15lb and a couple of dress sizes.
This is me at maintenance now. I did dip to my 'goal' weight of 119 a week or so ago but have put on a couple of lbs when i took these 'after' pics this morning. My goal for 2012 and new years resolution and lifetime resolution (!!) is to stay in the 119-126 range.
Doesn't sound much of a lost to everyone else on here!!! But i feel a lot different now and am much happier with my shape, which (being shallow!) means i'm a lot happier with myself in general.
Thanks heaps to 3FC and everyone here. What a great place!
