Well first off today I went shopping and am now a size 4!! This is at American Eagle but I know sizes run different so for reference my waist is 26 inches and by hips are 36 inches. I started out barely fitting into size eights in the same style from the same store. I've only lost 18 pounds but must have lost a lot of inches! I wish I would have measured at the beginning. Anyway I know its not that major of a thing but this was my first 'holy crap I'm tiny!' moment. I can't remember the last time I was this small.

As for my progress pictures I didn't actually take specific 'before' pictures when I started cause I was too embarrassed but I do have some regular pictures from around that time. I'm 5'6" and weight 156 pounds when I started. Now I'm down to 138! I eat around 1200 calories a day, but some days went way over but most importantly I have logged my calories every single day using this site for around 80 days. Alright here goes..

the picture that started it all. Here I am at my heaviest, washing dishes when my brother decided to take a picture of me on my phone. Looking at that picture I decided I needed to do something

Me just a few seconds ago in my brand new size four jeans! :)

I still have a lot of toning to do and some more weight to loose but I'm proud of my progress so far!
