dear fitspiring community of myfitnesspal!

i am here to share my accomplishment so far and gather more motivation to keep going strong (already skimming through these pages since joining&i feel so PUMPED up with inspiration!)

i am 22, 5' 4'' and in december 2011. i started eating clean - which was not only a nourishment to my body but to my soul as well. with each day i was becoming a happier, fitter and healthier version of myself &pounds off were just another of the side effects that along; but recently, as i have dealt with a two week plateau, i was finding it hard to stay on track and fell off the wagon for a full week and a half, gaining +4.4lbs back -- so i decided to make myself further accountable and join you in sharing my journey... i hope the outer results reflect my inner changes:-)... i will also try to post more pictures and clean recipes on my blog as soon as i find my way around the site:-)

    thank you beautiful ladies:-)

    in terms of quick weight loss, i think my unadjusted body reacted to the clean regimen by dropping a lot of weight in shock but than forcing me into a plateau, when i worked very very hard and ate extra extra well but nothing was happening. in the beginning i was also super motivated, so next to eating clean and working out i also ate little (around 800-900kcal per day...)

    Hi you did awesome! I need to lose about 25lbs too and may I ask by eating clean, u mean no fast/unhealthy food but only healthy low calorie food?

    and do you do exercise as well?

    I am 26 so i guess it is harder to lose that much as quickly :cry:

    You're doing great! Don't let plateau's get you down. That just means you need to change up your workout routine or diet a lil to shock the body back into action. YOU are in control, keep it up cuz you look AHHHHH-MAZING!!!
