2 years ago if you had told me I’d rock a look this tight and bare I’d have laughed (or maybe cried)
But I consider it a mini-success! And it was snug enough to make me want to avoid the candy. Ha ha

Hope you all had a great Halloween!
P.S. I was happy in pic 2 also but couldn’t figure out how to change the face.

    Yeah ... lol. I got fitted for new bras recently and she said “Wow, you do a good job hiding those” — wasn’t quite sure how to take that so I said “um, thanks?” :D:D:D

    You're my age, and we share similar, um, assets. Lol You're just several inches taller, but you have my goal look. Do you mind sharing what your routine looks like?

    Nice costume and you rocked it! Congrats! ( wishing I had some of your height, when I get to my goal weight I’ll likely look more like Wonder-tot than Wonder Woman) lol.

    Thank you for the nice words! Being taller definitely helps “hide” some weight, which I appreciate! Lol

    Eating-wise, it is all CICO ... I eat anything I want ... just within my calories. Processed foods, carbs, takeout, alcohol, etc. I am not a “cut things out” person. Once I learned the “math” of weight loss, it clicked as I am a numbers person. I haven’t paid much attention to macros other than trying to make sure I get more protein in. But I don’t eat out nearly as much anymore and my appetite is much less. I usually stick to the same breakfast/lunch each day at work because I am lazy (Greek yogurt with PB2 powder and cinnamon or maybe a little fruit added). I’ll have a fiber/protein bar mid morning and lunch is usually a tuna or turkey sandwich, maybe veggies. Dinners are usually some grilled protein and rice/potatoes/veggies ... or burgers, tacos or pasta. Just portion control ... and I am not big on sweets. I’d rather have wine than dessert!

    Working out - I hit the gym 5-6 days a week for an hour or so. I do group classes 4-5 times a week (varies but some cardio,weights, body weight stuff). And I’ll do some extra cardio (only about 20-30 min) before 2-3 of those. Before or after the other two days I lift (deads, squats, etc). I worked with a trainer for about 8 mos. twice a week who taught me form and helped set me on the right path but now I do what I enjoy and just keep trying to get stronger and drop the last few lbs.

    It hasn’t been fast for me but I know I can stick with this for life!
