Before Pics (7 lbs down)

Since, I'm new to this, my posting of "Before Pics" didn't work out so well and weren't current, so here goes my 2nd effort

Since you guys are being so brave and posting your before pictures, I built up the courage to show mine.

February 2012, I started working out with my boyfriend, because my clothes were getting tighter. In 7 weeks, I had gained 12 pounds in muscle from only lifting weights with him without any cardio. Needless to say, I wasn't happy, because my clothes definitely didn't fit. I had bulked up with the existing 10 extra pounds that I started with.

We were getting ready to move in May and stopped working out in April. Since we moved into the new house, we were busy unpacking, organizing, entertaining, relaxing, etc. and didn't hit the gym until August and I only went for a week.

I started at 150 lbs, gained 12 lbs in muscle and without the gym since April, I gained another 15 lbs, which leaves me at 177 lbs on January 7th. Luckily, I carry my weight well and suck in all/every day (as my mom taught me...it builds stomach muscles), so no one has noticed I've even gained. My body looks good at 140-145 pounds, which is my goal. I'm not a size 4 and 130 lbs...I never want to be, because it looks bad on me.

I'm on the third week the C2k program and my BMR is 1200 calories a day. I've lost 7 pounds as of today, but I can't see it or feel it. I'm impatient, but determined not to quit this time. I can do it and so can you!

Wishing everyone good luck, congrats and great job!!

Oh and this is the best app that I've had so far; I'm officially obsessed lol!
