I took these pictures today and am *thrilled* with my progress .... it's sometimes so difficult for me to see my progress, but today it was really clear in my photos.

Almost a year of calorie restriction (macros conscious) and heavy lifting... I have another year or so to go before I reach my end goal size (slow and steady is my story).

I will post a more detailed year's summary in 2-3 weeks, but I loved these pictures so much that I had to share...

comparison of my beginning me and my current me:

    Awesome! How much weight have you lost so far?

    Not that it matters. You look amazing!

    I wish I had an hourglass figure like that!!

    ok... this is the CRAZY part. I've only lost 35 lbs, all of which was in the first 6 months, but have slowly gained 10 of it back in the past 6 months (suspecting hormonal bc issues for this, but not entirely sure just yet)... so my net loss is only 25 lbs.

    it. blows. my. mind... how much lifting heavy reshapes me so drastically with minimal weight loss.

    I've dropped 3.5 dress sizes, looking to drop 2 more... I'm not looking to be super-duper fit, I'm more the type that will happily hold on to a bit of fat to have the curves that I want. I lift heavy because strong is sexy... and I'm a goddess-in-training :p

    thanks... you should really look into it. Lifting heavy has done wonders for me-physically and mentally. I am stronger in body and mind. seriously.
