So, sorry for the underwear pics, but to celebrate the winding down of my weight specific goals, I thought I would post my before and afters:

    Great job! It is on the verge of flat!!!

    What have you been doing workout wise and eating wise?

    I started at 163/164 and am now down to 155.2 (as of this A.M.) and am always open to suggestions to fix what I'm doing wrong.

    Wowsah! That's an amazing figure you've got there!

    And it's not "on the verge" of flat. It's flat. And you know it! :smile:

    Thank you all! :blushing: And the Ab pic first posted a LOT bigger and it made my belly look a smidge bump-like, but yea, I'm gonna say flat. YAY :happy:


    Debby:

    Eating wise I started out using a meal plan from women's health magazine, VERY loosely basing my meals and portions on it for anything that wasn't hanging out with my BF or friends- to give me an idea of readjusting portion sizes and things I could eat on a regular basis that are healthy and to try out new recipes. I did that for about 8 months without really focusing on what my weight was, just kind of reteaching myself how to eat, getting on a schedule, relearing what to buy and resetting what I reach for on auto pilot. When I found MFP (on my birthday this year, actually :smile:) adjusting my portions so they fit to calorie goals just came so easily. I've been at about 1300 cal goal (sometimes as low as 1250, sometimes as high at 1400) pretty much since day 1, and I eat my exercise cals- if I eat them with junk, I only eat half, and if I eat them with healthy food I try to eat them all(if that makes sense). I'm not always perfect eating wise, but I like eating junk sometimes, and I love the social aspect of food (hanging out, going out, parties etc) so I just do my best to stay within my calorie goals, plan splurges as best I can and keep my run of the mill meals as healthy as possible.

    Workout wise- I started with a similar Couch to 5k (c25k) Program (also from women's health) and ever since conquering 5K's I've been running 2-4 times a week, and mixing up my other workouts (which honestly I only get in 1-3 times a week- these are usually the workouts that take a back seat to my life). Once I was done with C25k, I just began googling different race training programs and adjusting them to suit my needs. 5k, 10k even thinking about a half marathon- Craziest thing EVER.

    Best of luck to you- feel free to friend me, or check out the awesomest most supportive group ever KICKIN *kitten* IN OUR TWENTIES Our April Challenge is up now- great group!
