52 Pound Loss! w/Pictures
Lannister80
Posts: 50
I've posted before about my loss and had amazing feedback from everyone. Just hit another milestone- 50 lb loss on Friday! And this morning I woke up to a 52 lb loss, meaning I've lost my second 10% (I've broken my 4 major goals into 10% goals). Before you think this is a crazy fast loss, I have been plateaued between the same couple pounds for a good 2 months now. Post TOM and starting to add veggies to every single meal helped break this plateau!
I am 4 lbs away from my lowest number during Weight Watchers in '09. I have never lost more than 50 lbs before, and it feels amazing. I am also 18 lbs away from Onederland, and I haven't been there since around 2000. For once, I finally feel like I can do this. I'm 5'4' and 33 yrs old. I've been using MFP faithfully and working out with a trainer once a week and trying to implement cardio into my schedule. This weight loss journey began in Jan '13, and I've been happy with my pace since I want to make sure my body is adjusting properly to this lifestyle change.
I've been keeping a weight loss blog since January at http://sweatersandsmoothies.blogspot.com Tons of pictures, goal numbers, reflections and opinions if you're interested in reading!
Wedding day, 4/12
6/12. I will get a skinny picture with James Marsters in the future. Joker is my husband. :-)
8/12. My heaviest peak. No, I wasn't pregnant!
3/13 and 8/13
10/13 (Cersei Lannister for Halloween) vs 10/12 (Harley Quinn for NYC Comic Con), That was 40 lbs down.
11/13. Birthday '12 vs Birthday '13.
1/13. 41 lbs of weight loss in the form of potatoes.
2/13. My friends wedding in 7/12 vs finally wearing a ladies fitted tee (Twin Peaks shoutout) in 2/14.
Trying on that same bridesmaid dress a few weeks ago...I have a whole blog post about my life in the form of "27 Dresses" then and now.
2/13. Finally getting to be fabulous at a reunion concert in NYC.
3/13-4/13. Finally getting to wear adorable dresses.
Big face and collarbone changes.
Going retro
4/13 (20 lbs down) vs 4/14 (just shy of 50 lbs down)
Today at a 52 lb loss and finally able to wear cute shirts with my fave skirt from '09. The day I can fit into my Liz Lemon shirt will be the most glorious day....
