41 Pounds Gone... 1 Husband Gained!

On 11th August 2016, I married my best friend.

209 days since my journey began and I have lost 41 pounds to date, two dress sizes (three in some places), going from a UK 14 to a UK 8/10.

I have never been happier, healthier or fitter and can finally claim I am at a healthy BMI for once in my adult life of 23 years. I am not exactly where I want to be yet, but I am closer than ever before.

I am 5'3 and started at 178. Currently floating at 136.3, with a revised aim to get to 130. I've gone from a sedentary, grazing fiend to a gym loving, active individual who last year would have laughed out loud at the prospect of going to the gym upwards of six days a week, for up to 2 hours a time! I've tried to lose weight on multiple occasions, but this time I succeeded and will continue to do so! Not just for my own desires, but to ensure that i am fit and healthy to embark upon my new married life

Anyway, on to pictures! The dress fittings one are a repost, but unfortunately they are the best comparative pictures I have as I didn't take progress pictures.
