Hard to believe that in 10 months I have lost 40lbs! Today an old coworker came into my office and was blown away how much weight I have lost. She left my company about 2 months ago and I apparently I look very different now! To date I have gone from 49.5% Body Fat to 28.5% Body Fat. A total loss of 21%. I have lost 6 inches off my waist, 7 inches off my hips and 4 inches off my chest. For a total of 17 inches off the main body areas. I went from a size 22/24 to a size 16/18 & a 2X/3X to a XL

I work out twice a day, 5 days a week doing 45 minutes of weight training & 60 minutes of cardio. I am use Beachbody Shakeology Chocolate Flavor every day for my breakfast.

Here I am at 38lbs lost from last weekend!:

Last but not least here is a picture of me in the same jean capris from last year!

I should add that I am also 5'10..so the weight is put on and sits differently. As of today I am 220.3lbs. My goal weight is 165/165.5. Alot of my family haven't seen me since last Christmas so seeing them in December will be a shock for them. I am a completely different person now!

    Pammy!!! Fantastic! Now (and I seriously mean no offense here :smile: ) update your profile pic to a smiling face, showing how proud you are of all you have accomplished! You are truly doing this the right way - there is not a quick fix, and you are steadily losing at a wonderful rate. You look great! I especially love the picture of how big your old capris are!!! Keep it up girl, you are inspiring me to keep on going! I am at 37, and feel like I am taking forever to hit 40 lbs. Thanks for the motivation!!
