Hello,

July 18th of Last year, my Husband and I started our weight loss journey together. The first three months we played games on our Wii, like Wii fit and Wii fit plus. We also got the Biggest Looser, and Ea Active Sports. I did Not allow anyone to take my measurements, I wish I had. I lost 26 pounds doing that. Around this time, in late September, My Husband found this site, and it has been so very helpful! Three months in, My Husband got Tony Horton's Power 90. (Beach Body Puts it out.) We did the three months of that next. I lost a total of exactly 25 pounds, and 18.5 overall inches. (Now you can see why it is important to take measurements!) Then My husband got us P90X, and we are on our second week of that. I am very thankful and grateful My Husband got us Power 90 First! Neither of us could have passed the fit test for P90X at the three month point. As of Yesterday, I have lost a total of 55.1 pounds!!! I started out wearing a size 16, all though I was probably more like an overflowing size 18. I refused to buy any jeans bigger than a 16, so I mostly just wore loose skirts. I am currently wearing Lee riveted carpenter pants, (so no stretch in the denim) and I am a very nice, trim size 6!!!

I hope I am doing the pictures correctly?

My original goal was 60 pounds lost, by February 25th of this year, (I am 4.9 pounds away.) and also to fit into my size 5 juniors jeans form when I was a teenager. (I can get them on, up over my hips, however am no where near close to getting them buttoned, but I will get there in time.) I have them washed and waiting for me in my dresser drawer. It looks like I am about 14.1 pounds away from them though, so I am revising my weight loss goal to 70 pounds lost. My Husband is just a hair away from if Not already at 50 pounds lost! (He has yet to weigh himself this week.) I am super proud of his accomplishment! Two days ago, he put on size 34x32 Relaxed fit jeans w/ a size medium sweater! He is looking so good! :love: Anyway, that is my story of my first 6.5 months.

  • Congrats on the weight loss. I as well started out at a size 16. I am currently a 12/14 and have just found this site and lost 5 lbs since starting about 2 weeks ago.

    The photos are not working for me though. Good luck with P90X, heard it was killer.

    Your photos don't show up (be sure to use the Photobucket code for message boards - starts with ) but I was able to copy and paste the code into another browser window and take a look. You're doing a great job.  I was going to post the pictures here so everyone could see them but it looks like you've deleted them. Too bad.

    for the future, when you post pics, you used the right code, but the only change you have to make is the IMG has to be img (lower case) in the bginning and the end of the code.

    Great job with your losses!!!!
  • That's so amazing... and inspiring! You guys did wonderful!!
