finally back to me . . .


Every year getting healthy and loosing weight is one of my New Years Resolution, I think this is the first year that I can say I was successful. As some of you may know I have been doing a rather crazy diet for the past 5 month. I have be eating beyond clean, working out like crazy, and have been doing a supervised diet with my doctor. It has been a crazy few months that have taught me an incredible amount about myself. I went in to my doctor last week for a final weigh in, even though I can see the results in the mirror hearing the numbers were another story all together. Here are the stats . . .

Overall Lost:
  • Total Weight Loss: - 42.2 pounds
  • Body Fat: 10% lost
  • Dress Sizes Change: - 6 sizes
  • Jean Size Change:  - 5 sizes 
Total Inches Lost:
  • Waist: - 6 inches
  • Hip: - 4 inches
  • Chest:  - 3.75 inches
  • Arms: - 3.25 inches
  • Thighs: - 3.75 inches
  • Knees: - .75 inches
  • Neck: - 1 inches
Looking at these images  I still can not believe the difference. I still have a little ways to go to get to where I want to be but I think I have already gotten through the hardest part. I started a healthy journey and I am determined to stay on it.
