Insanity Before & After Pics

Admission: I'm obsessed with the scale. I probably weigh myself at least 5 times a day...and that's not just stepping on the scale, that's stripping down completely and stepping on the scale. It really is an unhealthy relationship because the scale has the power to make or break my day. I gained some weight after double bunion surgery in March and exercised for a few months before starting Insanity. At first, the Insanity program was awful and the thought of making it through a 63 day program was daunting. I dry heeved during most of the workouts the first week but by the next week, I was able to make it through without getting sick. My starting weight was 138.6 and I ended at 134.6 (I'm 5'2"). I was pretty discouraged about that. So much work (an hour a day) plus logging calories, prepping food, etc...I felt like I should have lost at least double that. But then I compared my before, during and after pictures. What a difference! It was eye opening to me and if I had to choose, I'd rather see progress in pictures and measurements than on the scale. I lost a total of 11.5" and 4lbs. So for those of you discouraged with the scale, stick with it and take pictures!
