The So sometimes I need a little more motivation to keep myself going with weight loss. I follow "Our Best Bites" for food ideas , etc. Recently they started a diet bet. Buy in $35. If you lost 4% of your body weight in 4 weeks you split winnings!! So I bought in!! I really don't use the scale as a measure of health or success. But it helped keep me motivated for 4 weeks!! I didn't "diet" or change any habits. I just didn't stray. I pushed a little harder. Guess what!?! I won!! Turns out most people won so the pot was not as big as I hoped. But I won' $47.19!! I'm gonna leave it in the program and do another one for November.
Here is my before and after. Which happened to be almost exactly a year apart!! (Within a week of each other)
Don't mind my messy hair. I literally rolled out of bed and weighed! I've lost 41.5 lbs!! The pants on right are a 2x in plus size, and top is a 4x!! I'm now in a 12/14 or size large!!
My hugest accomplishment so far is two fold.
I now weigh 197.5 lbs!! I am under 200!! I haven't been that for almost 15 years!!!
And...I bought lulu lemon pants!! Size freaking 12!!
I squealed when they fit. And damn sure bought them!! The nice gals working gave me high fives!! And they were so worth the effort!!
