it’s been a year.
on january 4th, 2011, i decided to finally do something with myself and begin my journey of losing weight. i’ve started and ended many “diets” before, so i honestly didn’t have high expectations for myself. i don’t know what made this time different, but somewhere along the way it changed from a diet to a lifestyle change.
SW: 265
CW: 195total loss: 70 pounds
starting shirt size: XXL
current shirt size: Mstarting jeans size: 20
current jeans size: 12everything has shrunk. even my ring size has gone from a 10 to an 8. i haven’t been this small since elementary school. i have a confidence that i’ve never had before. i’m happier than i’ve ever been. more than anything, though, i think i’ve finally found the person i was always meant to be.
Ahh this is so interesting! I love finding before/afters that are the same weight as me. Seriously, we have the same starting (well sorta, mine’s 270) AND current weight. Crazy. And inspirational! Amazing job :)
