Hey everyone :)

How I lost it.....
1.) I listened to my body
2.) I started eating clean
3.) I didn't really count calories, I fed my body when I felt like I needed it and ate until I was satisfied, not full
4.) I fell in love with the gym
5.) Plenty of water


My story: long story short, I caught my husband having an affair, it ruined me. I started eating a lot because I thought " well if he can't love me, I'm sure no one will, there must be something wrong with me" I was in a horrible place, mentally and physically. At some point I realized I needed to snap out of it for my 2 year old son. I made a plan for where I wanted to be in the next few years. I wanted to finish college, get healthy, and build a new life for my child and I. Another goal of mine is to join the National Guard, that is a big goal, but in order to do that I need to be at military standard in weight. I will kick some *kitten*. :) I'm also going to add that it feels good to have confidence , and I actually love myself again. I feel sexy, and its such a great feeling!

( Also losing the weight was never about my ex, but its nice when his buddies tell tell me he was crazy to leave an awesome hott woman, for the girl he is with now)

This is a face shot of before and after.... The before was taken on November 6, 2012... And my after was taken about a week ago. 48lbs lost so far, about another 40 to go and then I will post a before/after of my body.

I'm feeling great, and love watching my body change. That's the best part of all, I feel proud of MYSELF.

  • I commend you for having the courage and strength to take control of your life. I am sure it wasn't easy but it seems like you have the hang of it now! You look great! Kudos and Girl Power!!!! :smile:
  • Yummy Mummy alert, whoop whoop, congrats to you not on your weight loss, because you were just as beautiful before, but for realising you can do all this without a donut like the ex.

    Congrats to you, you look amazing! I have also been through a partner having an affair, and it almost destroyed me. But like you, I picked myself up and came out much stronger on the other side!
