I can't believe I have lost 18 pounds in six weeks!! What a lifestyle change.
During the past six weeks I have been sucessful because:
-Losing the baby weight was a big goal - done!
-Wanting to get out of maternity pants was so motivating - done!
-Getting under 200...so close I could smell it - done!
-I am exercising at least 5 days a week
-I have only been 'bad' food-wise 4 times and each time I have continued with my weight loss journey the next day and not given up
-I have been making sure that my husband and I are eating home cooked meals as often as possible and if we don't we'll have Subway or something a little healthier than fast food
-I have been drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day 90% of the time
Here are a few before and after pics because I love seeing other ones:
Before: 215 pounds - right before Christmas

After: 198 pounds - two days ago (17 pounds down)

Can't wait to get to my first real goal of 190 pounds! 7 more to go!
Thanks for looking
