Bring it on 2013! (with pics)

Madam_Patrick

My journey began 10/2011. I lost 43lbs and have gained a little bit back. I'm at 36lbs lost as of today. And it's on the way DOWN!!!

I wanted to share my January 2012 to January 2013 pics with you. These are face shots. Most of you will be able to see the great difference in my face.



I have gone from size 20 (bye bye Lane Bryant) to size 14 (Target! Mossimo!)!!!

I have more to go. My goal weight is 170-175. Current weight is 206.

Struggling with belly fat... focusing on sugar and carb intake for that.

I want to encourage those of you who are looking at your small weight losses and know that EVERY LITTLE BIT COUNTS! I have to remind myself that it took me a while, but I was really afraid to lose too quick. Anyone I'd ever known who lost quickly, gained it back and then plenty more.

I wanted to just encourage everyone! It can be done! You can do it!

And I will get to my ultimate goal!

Also, ladies... if your man could use to lose few pounds himself, he may be motivated by your loss! Just keep at it! My husband is set on giving me a TROPHY husband... since he's getting a TROPHY WIFE! LOL!!!

Best wishes to all of you this year!

Also, feel free to friend me if you are an encourager or need encouragement!
