A long and winding road
Its been a while, ups and downs, forks in the road. What matters is when you get back on the horse after falling off. 91lbs so far, a bazillion inches I'm sure. Size 24 to 14... 13 weeks until my wedding. Pretty proud today :) Now, how do I post a pic ;P

Pain (once weight is lost)

It really is amazing!
So, I hit this weird plateau..... wasn't losing, wasn't gaining. Wasn't particularly bloated. I couldn't figure it out. After almost two weeks of being stuck there I decided to jack up my calories (reduce my deficit). So, I added 500 calories per day. Its amazing how hard it is to eat SO MUCH! Now, before I started this…

I can't believe how sweet it is! Does…

She is eating healthy every day and even though she bummed her knee out right at the beginning is doing what she can to get whatever…
