I started my weightloss / fitness journey after seeing this picture! I then fell pregnant with our second child after loosing around 28lb and gained most of it back again. After two operations this year I finally got back on the wagon in April and have to date lost 46lb. I still have 17lb to go and it seems these 17 are going to be harder than the first 46!

I didnt clean eat and I had weekends of alcohol and enjoying myself. Life is just in moderation these days.

I didnt go to the gym, I went out walking (Completed the moonwalk in June!), did Jillians 30DS, and have now started running (a 10k end of september).

Dont get me wrong, I had days (and still have days!) where I slipped up and days where I just felt on top of the world and wanted to exercise until my feet fell off!

I didnt believe I could get this far, and I still dont! The days I'm pounding the pavement I think omg how did this happen.
I still sometimes wonder if my scales play tricks on me and I havent actually lost that weight, then I look at the photos and relise, nope I definatly did loose it.

I encorage everyone to do it, the way I feel now, with 17lb still to go, I cannot explain. Its amazing.

Anyway enough rambling!

I'm 5ft3 started at approx 189lbs and now I'm sittting at 143lb - so for my height I'm still classed as 'overweight' (1lb until I'm 'normal'!)

    All that since April??? Work it, girl!! Way to go! I'm doing everything the "right" way, eating clean, working out like a mega crazy person...all except one day a week when I'm just normal. In the entire month I've been doing this, I've lost all of 4 lb! I'm told it's muscle, and water retention, and yada yada yada...and I guess it must be true, cuz I've lost 18 inches and I look totally different. But I want scale results! Anytime I've just counted calories, but ate whatever I wanted, didn't work out, I lost weight fast. I envy your weight loss! WAY TO GO!!! You've obviously been commited and worked your butt off.
