The 4th of july was a very big deal for me. Most of the 40 people that were at the bbq had not seen me in 6 months, meaning they last saw me at a size 16 and 200lbs. Im 5'4 and now weigh in at 147, size 7.

My biggest goal, while incredibly conceited, was to be the hot wife. Having been obese my entire life, never dating in college or high school, and being the heaviest wife in the family, I really wanted to be the cutie in the room for once.

Well to try to make this short, most close friends and family didnt recognize me. And all night long all I kept getting "you look amazing".

But the biggest nsv that I could hope for, was our buddy telling me that im a little hottie. Never in my life have I heard that!!

Self centered and conceited I know, but it meant more tham the scale could ever tell me!

    Congrats!! I am anxiously awaiting my hot wife moment. Oct 1 will be the first time my family has seen me in 2yrs and with any luck I will be at my goal weight by then. I don't think it is conceited at all. You earned your moment and I will have earned mine.

    I wish I could say I did it right and healthy when I started. But it started as losing 10 for a family function, so I went to gnc and bought liporush. It took off the first 25, but I dont recomend it. I felt like I was on crack, really shaky and the withdrws were horrible. After I finished the bottle, I switched to a very low cal diet, mostly fruits and veggies lean protein, and I dont eat after 6pm. Lots of water, and I started jillians last chance workout about two months ago. Also after the horrible liporush (do not take them), I switched to natural green tea supplements.

    the green tea has been amazing and im averaging about 2.5 lb loss per week. I really wish I did it right from the beginning tho. But im on the right track now. 18 more to go!

    NOT AT ALL CONCEITED!!! I can't wait to be the hot wife. I managed it for a year once, but like you, I've been fat virtually my whole life, and I want to kick that persona to the curb!

    Don't know about the green tea supplements but nsv = non-scale victory: positive changes realized through lifestyle changes that are not related to how much you weigh. ex: measurements lower, fitting old pair of jeans, friends noticing how much you have changed....
