Down 12.6!! (pictures)
 

Holy Crud!!! I knew I was going to lose the weight, but I didn't realize it was going to be so fast!!! :carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot: And unless I plateau for 7 weeks... it looks like I'm going to be fitting back into my Irish Dance Costume in time for St. Patrick's Day! (that pic will come at 10%...)

I feel like I'm losing weight like a guy.... lol -- I started all of this on 12/31/07-- Is that too fast to have lost 12.6? I'm seeing other people who are losing 10 in 2 weeks... *eyebrow raise*

Anyways-- Let me know what you all think! I see a difference in the mirror--not so much in these pictures... But hey- my tank tops are finally staying on my belt line instead of popping up over my bellybutton!! :D

Thanks, Everyone, for all of your support!!! I KNOW I would have given up without all of your help!!!

10% by St. Patrick's Day! I want to fit into my Dress!! Aiee!!!

Great job.. I notice a difference. How have you dropped it so fast?

I'm doing Weight Watchers (the old plan--I went from the 24-29 point range to the 22-27 point range this week). And I teach Irish Dance as well as have practice in an Irish Dance Show Company 2 times a week.

Then on my "days off" from teaching and dancing, I do aerobics (Richard Simmons tapes.. I know... But I'm not ashamed!! It works for me!) And I have one more day off where I try not to be a bump on a log... as much as I love sitting around and watching tv ;)

It's pretty easy for me, though, because everything but the aerobics is my Job-- so I don't feel like I have to psyche myself up to exercise! (Except on my two days off... lol)

You look awesome! Keep up the good work!!

Congrats sweetie!!! You can do it!! :)

You look awesome! Especially in your top half, that looks where it dropped off the most!

Thanks! lol yeah.. I'm a "pear". I'm VERY envious of all these beautiful ladies that can lose weight and go to single digits-- But I don't see it happening! I think I was an 8 in elementary school.... But I don't mind ;)

Congrats!! I'm with ya on never getting to the single digits...i literally think they'd have to shave bone off of my hips..lol...but i'm certainly happy with the lower double digits!

YAY!!! keep up the good work girl!!!

Your off to a great start, no doubt you can make this happen. :)

You look wonderful. Keep it up.:)

great job. this if anything inspires me more to keep working it out. again.. good job

Nothing wrong with a nice high hip-to-waist ratio! I think that shape looks great on women. Of course, it CAN make it a bit hard to shop... I checked my bust, waist, and hip measurements on a sizing chart lately, and they were M, S, and L(bordering on XL) respectively. It's like my body belongs to three different people!

lol No kidding! I have the same problem.... If I EVER find a dress that fits, I have to take in the bust and waist a couple inches!
But yes, I love my shape-- and so does my boyfriend ;) So I've got no complaints about a few alterations for clothing here and there.
