When I looked at the comparison photo (in profile) vs the one taken in June, I was completely floored. I started my program 8 weeks ago (July 12th) and am now down 19 lbs and counting! And tonight I made cookies for the kids and I didn't even have just one lick ;) Yay me!

I have been working out 3x per week plus moving a whole lot more. I'm still not as consistent with recording food all day as I'd like to be, but I'll get there.

Thank you, thank you, thank MFP! What an awesome program! And thanks, all, for letting me share my little bit of success!

Marci

    Wow!! Congrats you look great. I know how you feel about making things for the kids and then resisting. I use to be really bad about snacking while I was cooking dinner and then eating dinner with the family. I've made myself record everything that I put in my mouth so that has really helped with me not snacking anymore. I'm loving the program to. Two days before I started here I had started doing WW but this is so much easier and I love it.

    Good luck with your continued journey!!

    hey, thanks everyone! I bit the bullet and bought myself a personal training package.. I have no plans to stop. My trainer keeps me accountable. I am amazed at how strong I am getting.. he has to keep increasing reps and weights almost every week to keep up with me ;)

    I added one more face pic.. I can definitely see a difference in my face, I've started to lose inches around my waist and stomach and my clothes fit much better. I've set a goal for myself to get to 100 lbs in a year. If I keep at that 2lb per week loss rate, I'll get there.


    Onward!
