My before picture was taken in February 2006. I STILL feel guilty because I yelled at my daughter for taking it (I am a master at posing for fat pictures to skillfully hide extra baggage - this picture was not posed) but it was a sad wake up call for me. It took me another 2 months to actually start on a new WOE but this was the moment. I was a TIGHT size 20 (stretch jeans at that)
My after picture is about 1 month old. I am wearing size 12 jeans! My weight loss has stalled since then but I'm not giving up.
I have been exercising -- I found that the elliptical machine was most effective or else doing WATP when I was too lazy to haul my tail to the gym (which is pretty sad considering it's in my apartment building). With a toddler in the house, I can honestly say that she has been a very effective workout tool as well. I do a little weight training - mostly free weights here at home while the baby watches Teletubbies or I'm watching TV.
And yes -- that IS Camp Snoopy! I don't care what stupid thing they call it now...it will always be Camp Snoopy to me too!!!!
I appreciate everyone's compliments SO much -- but the comment about my arms almost made me cry! Thank you for saying that...I have worked very hard to tone up there & I really appreciate the notice!!!!!
