Size MEDIUM.

edited December 2024 in Success Stories
I have not worn a size medium anything (besides like a men's t-shirt) since before my son was born...and he's 5 now. So as I went to assess the bathing suit situation for the summer, I realized the bottoms to one of my swimsuits were TOO BIG. I ordered a new one, and the bottoms are a size MEDIUM. I can't believe it! I didn't even think they were going to fit, I thought "No way, they'll be too small, there's no way I can fit into a medium bikini bottom." But I tried it on, and BOOM it fits!

The first pic is from this past January trying on a size medium swim suit (the bottoms, top is a large and prob always will be with these boobs)---NOT a good look (sorry such crappy photo quality), and the one on the bottom is me this past weekend---also in a size medium (bottoms)...WHAT a difference a few months can make!!

    I still have the white one too :) It's a little tighter than the pink one, but I think I'm just about there!

    I do a good mix of both, and I've been following the NROWL lifting plan for about 6 weeks :)

    Awesome! I have been studying the book and plan to start it tonight! Do you follow the diet or just eat similar to it?

    I kinda follow my own plan, diet wise. I feel like the book recommends a bit high, calorie wise, so I keep my cals around 1400 (if not exercising that day) and between 1500-1600 if exercising (sometimes more, depending on how hard I've worked out) and keep my macros at 40% protein, 30% carbs, 30% fats. I go over maybe once a week, but I make up for it on other days. I've really started challenging myself with the workouts, and it's definitely paying off!
  • Wow! Good job Mer! You look fantastic!
