I finally managed to kick that 1lb hump, and now I have 8 more to halfway point!! I plan on getting as close to 116lbs lost by October 31st. I started this on the same day of 2009 so I have given myself a year. 4 months in and I'm SO happy with the results thusfar!!

So here are my Before and Inprogress images for you :)

IN PROGRESS! (50lbs gone!)
This morning (don't mind the hair, i decided this was a good activity while waiting for the flatiron to heat up :P)

and check out these old pants!

Now you can all die saying you've seen me at my chunkiest and with no makeup on and bad hair in a TERRIBLY self timed picture. (yes, only /shame for that since I'm a photographer and makeup artist lol. Im used to behind the lens!!! I can't focus pictures when I'm not there lolol!)

So, I am SUPER excited. I can't believe jacking my calories up through the roof for a couple of days got me over that hump. 2000/day was Bebhinn consuming food every waking second! But it worked.

I can't wait to call my fiancee and tell her :D

Thank you all so much for your support and knowledge, and thanks to MFP for just being super awesome. What a great tool.
