Before and After

Well, my friends this week has been crazy.

I would wake in the morning have oatmeal, toast, fruit and a glass of milk about 7:30 and by 10:30 I would be starving! I thought that there was something wrong with me. So I mentioned it to my trainer and he laughed at me! Apparently my metabolism has sped up (NICE!) so I have to eat more frequently. It is the hardest thing to get used to! Six meals a day sounds way more fun than it is.

Having spent hours at the gym each week (between 7-8) and changing my diet I have really done a lot. In fact this week I hit the 60 pound mark. Yeah, that is right friends, 60 pounds down! I can hardly believe it.

So I thought I would share a little before and after. I am shocked myself at the difference. I can hardly believe it. Down 2 cup sizes, a whole shoe size, am now wearing Large shirts in instead of XXL and am down 3 jeans sizes!

Here are some horrible before's. I can't believe it when I look at the pictures.

I cringe when I look at those pictures. What was I thinking? I have no idea. I am just so happy that I finally woke up and decided that it was time to just do something. So my friends, after months of hard work, a stress fracture in my tibia and lots of ill fitting clothes, this is how I looked as of Monday evening...

Now I know that I am not done and that I still have work to do...but wow. The change is surprising! I will always have a large chest, it is something I think I will always have to deal with until the day comes when I can justify a reduction, and believe me I am always looking for a way. But wow. I am working on getting some better shots of me but this is what I have. Still, considering where I was, this is awesome.
