Finally a normal BMI!!!

  • Last July I was 215 pounds (the day I gave birth to my baby girl). I lost some weight, got lazy, and started back up again Jan 4, 2011 at 183, making me obese. This morning, I FINALLY hit 149.5 putting me into the NORMAL BMI RANGE (and 26 pounds UNDER my pre pregnancy weight that I had lost weight to get to before ttc)!!!! I have been pushing for this mini goal for what feels like forever and I finally did it! I am treating myself to a new bathing suit today! Here's my before at 183 (size 17 jeans in this pic) and me today at 149.5 (size 9!!!!!!!!!!!!! skirt).

    after





    14 more pounds till my BIG goal and then I'll make up my mind if I keep going or maintain. I am in the best mood today!!

    I don't think I have EVER worn a jean skirt in my adult life (or even past elementary school... I was not a girly girl lol)! I'm sure if you keep doing what you're doing you'll get into those skirts in no time!!!
