28.6kg/62.92lbs down... work in progress.

8th October 2011 - 23rd June 2012


I actually have some muscle!


I have seen other people post their progress photos and I thought I should do that too

I started my journey on the 8th October 2011 and after having 3 babies in four years with now weight loss in between I had ballooned up to 93.5kg or 205.7lbs. At only 5.1" tall, I was disgusted with the way I looked and finally decided that now was the time to do something about it. I had tried countless times to lose weight but had failed everytime as I was always on a "diet" (Just using that word gives me the chils).
I started with portion control and limiting processed carbs and sugar and eating lots of lean meat, fruit and vege. My workouts consisted of 30 Day Shred and Jazzercise 5 days a week. I have now broadened my workout selection to include weight training, Zumba, Ripped in 30, and many other different videos, as I'm at home all day with the kids and unable to get to a gym.
I have been using MFP for the last 7 months and it has been great as it has helped to keep me accountable by tracking my food and workouts.
I now currently weigh 64.9kg or 142.78lbs. I am hoping to lose approximately 10kg or 22lbs more to reach my goal weight, but I intend to shift my focus slightly to increasing muscle tone and definition and decreasing my body fat percentage.

Thanks for taking the time to read
