Whew. It took me all day to get the courage to actually post PICTURES, then another 2 hours to learn how to do it, :smile: but here goes:

This was me on Memorial Day last year. I thought I looked totally cute that day. Seeing this picture is what made me realize I had to do something about my weight. I was around 160-165 pounds at this point.

9/18/11 (2 weeks after starting with a trainer)
164 pounds
32% body fat
Waist 33″
Hips 40″

1/22/11 145 pounds. This is about when I hit an 11 minute mile.

TODAY:

25.5% body fat
Waist 28
Hips 37

Look at that leg muscle! I can't believe that's me.

I still have a little ways to go, I want to lose the lower belly and love handles and work on some more definition on my arms and abs, but there's no way I would have make it this far without my MFP family! Thanks friends!

    Thanks everyone for the kind words and encouragement! Some days it's SO HARD to stick with it the plan, but all of our goals are attainable. Thanks for giving me the extra motivation to say yes to the extra cardio and say NO to dessert or a glass of wine, and knock out these last few pounds. xoxo.
