Maintenance and Strength Training Progress Pics
So, this is a bit of a nerdy comparison, but I've been maintaining since April 2012 and have been continuing to strength train and trying to just become more fit.

Seeing Progress in Pictures - 80 lbs lost
I've been maintaining for about 6 months and occasionally just have those days where I don't see the weight loss. If I'm feeling a little discouraged, I find it helps to look at old pictures.

Tri-State Tough Mudder - Oct 2012 (New Jersey)

NSV - Lost Almost 60 Inches in 1 Year
I decided to look at my progress in measurements, since I've been exercising and doing strength training and sometimes the progress on the scale is slow (throughout the year, there were weeks on end when the scale didn't budge at all!). The total? 59.5 inches lost! So, when you're feeling discouraged, measure and take…

50 lbs lost!!
Ok, so the photos are embarassing, but in my "before" photo I had dressed up to go see Rocky Horror Picture Show (yes, I went out in public like this!!) and looking back at the photos I was horrified at how I looked. So I decided to take a new picture wearing the same corset and see what the difference was after 50 lbs…
