I never really realized how big I have gotten. I mean, I knew I was well over weight because that's what the scale said...but this big? No I didn't realize how big I have gotten. Everything in my life became so complicated..i never had time to do anything..it was all work work work..bills bills bills..kids kids kids...so gym time was definitely not at all on my mind. I finally got so tired of being FAT..and clothes...oh my! Don't even get me started on that. I had little interest in buying new clothes because I was so disgusted at the way I looked. So just one random day I decided to go back and get signed back up at the gym and it has been uphill from there. It was a Thursday(not a Monday) and from that day forward my life has changed drastically. Going to the gym and working out regularly had become a big part of my life. My family has definitely been my big motivators. Especially my HUSBAND. Not only does he support me 110% he gives me all my space and all the time in the world to workout. I now have so much time on my hands and can juggle everything I thought was so hard all in one. My energy level is unreal. Sorry to bore you guys..but here's my pictures..feedback is definitely welcomed:-)

    I am so happy for you! You look great! Keep up the good work! And, this has a lot to do with Les Mills Pump, right? :love:

    Yes Les Mills Pump has been a BIG part of it...I've been slacking the past week because I started doing Insanity(for cardio) and I still do my other workouts as well..but yes...weight lifting is a big part of my weight loss..

    Good Luck with that. You'll definitely enjoy it. I try to start things at the spur of the moment..you know. Studies show that you should start something in the beginning of the week..but I've found that picking something up and starting it right there and then..whether it be a Monday,Tuesday or even Thursday...Just start it.

    I KNOW RIGHT! I didn't realize that I didn't have too much full body pictures...I love pictures..but seems like I've been hiding my body from the camera..that's why it's so small..that's a cropped picture....lol Definitely get what you mean.

    :happy: :bigsmile: :blushing:
