Well lately I've been really down on myself. I have gained 7 pounds over a few months and no matter what I've done, I cannot manage to get it all off. So I started taking measurements again......and progress pics.....and my was I shocked!

In 1 calendar year I've only lost 15 pounds but I've also lost 17 inches overall!!! That is due to beginning running last summer (just started up again). And very little body weight exercise. I bought the Extreme Weightloss Bootcamp DVD that Chris Powell has out out and let me tell you- I see results!!

So this post is just me getting it out there so maybe I not so hard on myself. I am making progress, just not as quick as I did before since I, so close to my goal weight.


This is when I started in June of '11 and now today:

And here is a dress I bought in March. I am 2 pound heavier now than in the first dressing room pic. Haven't worn this dress since I took that photo:

    Wow, that's really good progress.. I can't believe you weigh more in the dressing room photo @ the bottom - the inches you've lost trump everything. Don't focus on the scale #, you can definitely see the results and they look amazing! Great job!

    Thanks :-) it's been a long emotional road to health and wellness. Great job on the 13 you have lost!! Great progress :-D

    I guess that was the whole purpose of my post to begin with........I don't do a lot of strength training, I don't lift weights, and I don't run more than 30 minutes per day, but what I AM doing is obviously making a huge impact on my body. Now......I am kind of curious what heavy lifting would do and how much it would change things even more,

    I normally find them cheesy and lack motivation to do it on my own, but his has been great and it's a killer!
