I didn't realized how much I had gone down until I looked at this picture. I am really inspired. | You know what I love about most of the after pictures that I've seen on this thread is the sassiness that is displayed in your posing. I LOVE IT! NENE, girl you got your swag on in your after picture.

I WAY overdid my leg workout two days ago and I can't walk/sit/get up without it HURTING REALLY BAD and darnit as a result the scale jumped a pound yesterday morning, but i'll drink alot of water today and try to stretch maybe this is just temporary water weight.

I was in 30-32 when I started this journey! And I had to chuckle about your 4 yr old taking the photo! One of our grandsons, now 5 yrs, needed a serious distraction about 3 yrs ago when I was trying to hold him one day so I made the mistake of showing him pictures I had in my camera. He very quickly picked up which buttons to push. Stupid Grandma then showed him how to take pictures with the camera. I created a monster!! :) He would steal my camera every chance he could get. He chased the family cat in to his Mom & Dad's room once, chronicling his journey with my camera all the way right to under the bed! At 5, he now does quite a nice job of taking pictures! |
