Battling the BACK FAT BEAST (Pix - Not for the squeamish)

Finding yourself over 100 pounds overweight isn't pretty. What's worse that that? Finally taking a camera to your backside and seeing the view of those who stand behind you in line! I knew I was big, but I never, ever was prepared to see what I did when I finally snapped some rear view pix in the mirror this past February. And with that, a new way of eating was born - March 7th, 2011. I was (and still am) a woman on a mission.
A little more than four months have passed, and I'm happy to report there is hope, even for big gals with big goals. I'm seeing results in a relatively short amount of time. I'm no where near finished, but I'm glad to see that inflatable ham on my back is shrinking! Granted, it seemed like it was being replaced by an inflatable shar pei puppy, but I'm hopeful he's on the way out too!
I'm especially surprised to see the big difference between last month & this month. That was the point that I befriended the elliptical and put in an hour a day, 5 or 6 days a week.
