This is after Day 2 of the 30DS (keeping in mind I alternate with my gym activities)...I'll post again after day 30! I don't look slimmer than before, but I do look tighter! At least I find...:)

You're doing wonderful!!!

You are so pretty even with the weight you have a beautiful face but losing the weight makes your features really stand out!!!

silken555

Wow...thank you so much jess...I'm actually blushing...:)

silken555

Woohoo...visible results!

At least I think so...:D

My tummy is showing definition and the waist is definitely smaller, the arms are smaller as are the thighs. Gonna be trying some skin firming lotion to help with the skin on the thighs. Thankfully the rest of my skin is looking nice and tight so far...:D

Haven't taken a bikini shot in a while so here are some more!

Age: 36
Height: 5'2.75"
Weight: 178.2lbs -> 173.6lbs (-4.6) I was at 170.6 but I went food crazy the last two weeks...emotional eating.
Arms: 11.25" -> same
Bust: 37.75" -> 37" (-0.75)
Underbust: 33.25" -> 32.25" (-1)
Waist: 32" -> 31" (-1)
Hips: 40" -> 39" (-1)
Thighs: 24" -> 23.25" (-0.75)
Calves: 15.25" -> 15" (-0.25)

Total weight since August is 4.6lbs lost
Total inches since August is 4.75" lost







The front and side show some small changes, but I'm shocked at the back! I had to adjust the halter too seeing as the cups of the bikini top are a little too big now. I'd DEFINITELY lose my top if I dived with it...lol!

lighteningjeanne855

Keep doing what you're doing! It shows!
Going from 178 to 173 made a real improvement in your bikini shots.

It's been a while since I've posted anything. This winter was very, very difficult for me but I still managed to mostly maintain the loss I have achieved. I only gained back 6 lbs which is awesome seeing as I was pretty much out for nearly 4 months with various illnesses, AKA no gym time at all.

I went back to the gym in January but it's been very sporadic. Finally I chose to take 2 more months off the gym. I'll be seeing as potential family doctor for myself end of April and he may send me off for a bunch of tests so I figured waiting til after all that would be best to continue with activity.

Anyway, I still managed to hit a milestone...169lbs! I haven't been under 170lbs in at LEAST 10 years...if not more!

I don't yet have swimsuit pics, but I do have my high school reunion pic...:D I think I looked gorgeous that night!


What I rocked, er...I mean wore...;)


A closeup of my makeup. I was going for a 1950's pinup look...:)


A comparison between the reunion I attended in 2010 and now. You can definitely see a size difference! I got MUCH heavier than that afterwards too.
