As of late...

I'm super pleased to say that I have dropped 16 pounds since August!

I've worked hard, but can work harder.

I still have a long way to go before I'm back to where I was a few years ago.

I'm so happy that I took a before and after picture!

It has upped my motivation by 100x!

I finally realized that I can change and I'm sticking to it!

 

Here is a picture of me before at 172 and after at 156.

My goal has always been to be around 140 but my body just hits a stand still at 150.

So I'll aim for 6 more pounds and then I will dedicate myself to muscle tone, and body fat %.

 

 

 

 

 

I find it funny that I stopped working out... I know how much I love it.

I thrive on challenging myself in this regard.

It's nice to see your hard work stare you down in the mirror.

But, this time I dont want to let it happen again.

 

I love that my clothes fit! 

It's nice to have buttons not popping :)

 

 

 

And on a side note.. because I've dropped a few pounds, I can now wear all my clothes!!

Which means my outfits have been rocking.
