  • 17lbs and 2 sizes in 1 1/2 months.



    those big jeans i'm posing in are my starting jeans. size 19.
    I've been swimming in my 18s lately, and decided i'd try a 17 just to see how close I was. I had this idea in my head that as long as the 18s arent literally falling off my butt, then they still 'fit'. Those other pics are me in my 17s, in a belt that also never used to fit, on the -second- notch. they fit wonderfully, and i'm officially retiring those 19s and 18s! And i'm still 13 days shy of being on this WOE for 2 months (started march 12th)

      thanks sally! my losses have been sporatic and weird. i hit a low, then gain a few, then spend the next week or two getting back down to it, repeat. That can be frustrating, but even with all that weirdless, i'm down 10.8lbs for the month of april, and I have to remind myself to stop worrying about every single weigh in and look at the overall monthly or weekly numbers. they may not be as fast as some people, but c'mon. almost 11lbs in 4 weeks? thats over 2.5lbs a week average. Who could argue with that?

        It is so much fun slimming down into a smaller size. Are you exercising regularly? If not, get going with that because it will certainly help you lose on a more consistent basis. I wish you continued success

                  thanks guys! i'm officially down another pound since posting this 2 days ago and sittin' pretty at -18! yay! i'm wearing a t shirt today i got last... june i think? that i've only worn once because it was too tight at an XL. clinging to my sides and showing all my icky jiggly parts. today, it fits like a t shirt should and i dont have to tug on it or feel like its too tight anywhere at all! even my chest, which is a huge change lol
