Minigoal--I didn't gain it all back!

  • I was posting pics, to encourage myself. Well, I was doing really well, and then I backslid a little, but hah! i caught myself. And i have been working my way back down from the 180s again, but I didn't gain it all back! i mean the weight seems TO BE MORE of course, but my body composition didn't revert back to what I was!

    starting pic of 196 (on the right). Pic on the left is 190



    196-190


    185-180



    180-176



    1 week on PLAN AFTER my 307 day SLACK OFF--yes it was really that long!

    183.4(YESTERDAY)July 8th 2010



    So i am actually very encouraged, even though i did gain 10 lbs back, i totally owned the new shape I made for myself. This is a time, I FINALLY caught myself before I backslid too much.
    ************************************************** **********well, it didn't last for long lol!!!! i got pregnant! and packed it on to 222! here I go again!

    Me on the way UP


    IT WAS SO WORTH IT!!!![

    Me on the way back down again. post c-section. (MORE PICS TO COME)

    5 weeks postpartum-letting it all hang. 201 lbs.


    omg, is that my back?

    5wks to 8 wks--slimming down.


    One month progress:











    KICKING THE 190S AGAIN! Reached 180s, bounced up again and now am fighting through the 180s October 2011. One POSITIVE note, I am almost at that prepregnancy weight of 183! So excited.

    This is from August to late September.






    Didn't feel like posting any pics with all the turmoil I've been through, but I'm ready to get back at this
    here's 2011-2012. yes, I see some digression, BUT, not too bad. My stomach looks really bloated probably from eating ALOT of fiber.

    Hopefully, I can start looking hot again! This is kind of what I want to look like when I reach my goal.
    I believe hot is curvy and muscular at the same time.
  • You look great
  • thanks, Chic. I hope I can continue looking greater as I shrink down! You look good too. You are always an inspiration to me! i bet you would look good in some hot skivvies now! do take some pics!
  • Good catch!!! You look great!!!
  • Thanks so much. I don't know why...but the fact that i slacked off so much, and I didn't go back to what I was dealing with before--really encourages me that I can do this--all the way!
  • No doubt you can do it ... Your pictures show some dramatic changes in your body. Just think what the next 20 pounds off will do for you!! Good job!
  • You still look great! Way to go on stopping yourself and getting back on plan!
  • legs- wow, you have some great legs! you're so right- you've kept your new shape. thanks for the inspiration!
  • Cglass- i am hoping the dramatic results continue! thanks for the encouragement.

    kaelah- yes, i am glad i caught myself before I was 20 up or just didn't care again!

    puce- thanks for the compliments. I have nice shaped legs, but there are so many things about them i don't like--so thanks for the compliments!

    oh I think jogging on the rebounder really tones those babies up!
  • Good for you for getting back on track. You look great!
  • thank you peace. I appreciate everyone's support!
  • you look amazing! You have a wonderful figure and you should be so proud of yourself! Congrats!!
