Okay, here is the long awaited before and after pics and results of my 2011 weight loss journey. I have been promising the results for a while now and here they are, finally. I must say I am still very embarrassed to reveal these before pictures and stats. I know I had a pretty good excuse of just having a baby to blame my weight on but is that really a good excuse for letting yourself go? Enough talk here is the beginning...
July 2010:July 2011:Here are the before and after stats to go along with the pictures:
Before: July 2010
Weight 169, Chest 40, Waist 39, Hips 44, Right thigh 23.5, Left thigh 24, Right arm 13, Left arm 13.25
After: July 2011
Weight 124, Chest 27, Waist 30, Hips 37.5, Right thigh 18.5, Left thigh 19, Right arm 11, Left arm 11.25
The difference:
Weight -45lbs, Chest -13", Waist -9", Hips -6.5", Right thigh -5", Left thigh -5", Right arm -2", Left arm -2"
There it is, all out in the open, no more hiding and no more being ashamed of my weight. My goal was to get to my wedding weight and I am still 5lbs from my goal but hope to get there soon. My favorite result of my weight loss is getting back to my 9 1/2 minute mile average. A year ago I was struggling to average a 15 minute mile. I enjoy running again and that makes everything I went through worth it.

Jamie - I have been talking to you through this whole experience but I gasped when I saw your after! You are so so sooooo beautiful! I just want to keep looking at your picture! What a bummer that I couldn't have taken some of you while you were in Texas! Awesome perseverance! You deserve to be as beautiful on the outside as you are on the inside!
That was me, not Mike, by the way! ;)
Megan, I could not of done this without first seeing you do it and that gave me my strength. I have to admit I got a little teary eyed with your response. Validation that I actually did it, there are no words, just an overwhelming flow of emotions. Thanks again for everything.
