Hi my fellow MFPers. I debated on posting this as regrettably I do not have before and after pictures. I avoided cameras as much as humanly possible in the before stage. And for the fact that I don’t like to brag, but I wanted to celebrate my success. And what better way than with my MFP family. And for the fact that I am not done as of yet...got another little bit to go.
It’s been 4 months as of yesterday since I decided to lose the extra junk in my trunk (and everywhere else) and become a healthier person. To date I have lost almost 41 pounds and a total of 17.5 inches from my body (5 inches from my chest, 4 inches from my waist (which is now a “never before in my adult life” 27 inches..sorry had to brag just a little..lol), 5.5 inches from my hips and 3 inches from my thighs. When I started this journey, being only 5 foot 3.5 inches tall, I was almost as broad as I was tall…lolol. Now I feel better and I look better. I actually feel comfortable in my own skin, feel more confident and dare I say sexier.
I want to say a personal thank you to all my MFP friends. Without your support and encouragement, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Thank you for being there. You made all the difference to this Irish lass.
