When I Started:
Feb, 2006
How I Started:
I needed to lose weight, started working out at home then Hubby bought me a gym membership and i have been hooked ever since.
Why I Love It:
I KNOW 1st hand now what working out can do for ones mind and body. I started out at 220lbs,41% BF and a size 18. Now i am 140,19%BF and size 4, and hoping to still be going down.
Update: I am now 131 size 2 and getting Body fat tested today!!!! body fat was tested and according to that I am 14.3%, so I am happy! It's only a number but I just wanted to make sure its still dropping!
Update: still 1lbs away from losing 95lbs, weight 126lbs size 2 (sometimes 0) and body fat tested this AM at 9.1%, again not to into the # but just making sure its going down.
Weight and Body fat are up a tad, but I am happy. I hit my goal of 95lbs gone but like the "fuller" look on me so I am up just a few lbs and 2% in Body fat. Like this much better!
How I Stay Motivated:
Seeing my body change, and knowing that it's me that's making that happen!!!!

I love the saying..."nothing tastes as good as skinny feels!" Sometimes I have to disagree though, cause Peanut M&M's taste pretty darn good!!!!!

This is embarassing! Not sure of my exact weight here, this was taken a few months before i made the choice to change. I would guess i am close to 220 as 3 months later in January thats what i weighed in at.
Body fat is pretty low...finally! I still have trouble beleiving this is me! My transformation has amazed myself, LOL!!
Changed my mind in competing, I admire competitors dedication and am envious of their physics but I am realizing thats not a path I am ready to go down at least not right now. My goal is to have killer, defined arms! Ok...I will settle for arms that look like they belong with my legs..lol! Seriously, I genetically and through hard work have great legs but the arms are far from it!!! Stepping up my game and working hard on my goal, I will get the arms I want!
I often wonder about this...Now that I have lost almost 95lbs, am I supposed to feel diffrent? I know I look diffrent infact people that once knew me will have a conversation with me and not even realize that its me the once 220lbs mom of their kids friend. Or I love this one... some guy at the...
