34 pounds down! So happy :D

Actually, 36 pounds down, whoops

It's been tough, but I'm finally starting to appreciate all of the work that I've put into changing my lifestyle. I feel great! I may still have some ways to go, but I am so proud of how far I've come and how much I've changed.

The first picture was from Thanksgiving 2012. I didn't start eating healthy and exercising until December 2012. The second picture is from about an hour ago

I changed so many of my habits:
- I started walking multiple times per week and doing home workouts.
- I started 30 Day Shred last month: I only have 5 days left and it is amazing! I'm moving on to Ripped in 30 next.
- I'm eating a lot healthier now. I used to binge a lot and eat junk food on a daily basis. Now I eat relatively clean with the occasional splurge.
- I started waking up in the early morning rather than sleeping in.
- I cut out soda altogether and only drink water throughout the day.

With all of these changes I have come to appreciate each day and my life so much more than I used to I can only imagine this increasing as I continue on this journey. Of course, I owe a lot of my success to MFP or else I wouldn't be posting this here! Good luck to all on our journeys!
