Weight Loss Success

[cheese_diva]

Hi Girls.. just wanted to share my weight loss success!!!

 

Before....

 

 

 

30 lbs later!!!!

 

 

No real "diet" just didn't eat rice, pasta, or potatoes for one month as a kick-start just after getting engaged.. I started to exercise regularly and we've cut out alot of the junk we used to eat. He still has the cookies and stuff, but he's kind enough to hide them in the cabinet they aren't tempting.

 

Don't get me wrong, I haven't felt really deprived at all. We're both just eating better and feeling better for it. The one thing I didn't stop that probably would have helped alot is alcohol. All my friends said they lost weight right after getting pregnant. I couldn't do it! I need my red wine and beer on poker nights!

 

It's really about making time for yourself and hanging my "puffy" picture on me mirror helped alot too!

 

I'm not at the size I was hoping to be, but the dress fits and that's all that matters! I'm actually looking forward to shopping for new clothes.

 

Thanks to everyone for the "did you work out today threads".. the motivation is increased by all the online support!
