I have not been around here too much lately...and apologize to anyone who has come to visit!!! :) ...For a quick little update, I am now down SEVENTY pounds....getting very close to my smallest adult weight ever...AND also have been able to maintain the positive trend in my weight loss of KEEPING it off and GOING the right direction... trully a lifestyle change! Not 100 percent sure at the moment of the exact inches but at last tally it was getting close to 80 total inches lost!!!

When I started this journey... I was wearing size 26/28's.... and those were sometimes tight! Now in some things I am down to a 0X~14/16!!!!! Gaining muscle as I lose, so a lot more * fit* then I think I was even when I was my smallest physical weight number wise years ago... :) Here is a recent pic from a week ago.... after a crazy, but fun concert I attended...Fun eyelashes  ( that fell off during the end of the concert... too sweaty of a turbobear! LOL! ...this was the first time in years I have worn my hair swept to the side like that... because for once, I actually wasn't mortified by the view of my face from the side! Getting there, slowly but surely!!!! :)

NEVER give up on who you know you are inside!!!!!! 

It's been awhile.... up to 62 total inches of flubber lost! ;)

And so it's been some time since I've posted....Had some trouble with my back and trying to type while sitting on the edge of my bed was making things worse.;) (TINY room....so no computer chair! LOL! )... in any case...finally found an app on my android phone ( ohh android..I love thee and thy free apps galore!.;) so here I am! ;)


Have an exciting new tally of inches lost.....62 TOTAL! As many inches as a 5 foot 2 person! I need a second measuring tape to attach to the first one!.;) ELEVEN of those inches are off my hips alone....!!!


Expecting even MORE goodness soon as I am now doing a combo of TurboFire and ChaLEAN extreme ( muscle burns FAT baby! ) also have decided to cut out pasta/rice etc after 3 pm ( and eat the whole grain ones as I have been already anyway before 3p.m.) and see how that effects the scale... I am DETERMINED to lose another huge chunk o' poundage (and inches!) this year! Excited and honestly loving being a bit of a workout junkie! LOL! It makes me feel accomplished...keeps me sane and motivated and sooooo much healthier....


If you're reading this...and think you can't do this...and ESPECIALLY if some snousy naysayer is tryin' to TELL you can't..... stand up...cover your ears ( preferabally with some killer workout tunes in your earbuds) and SHOW em' what your're made of!!!! No one can stop YOU except yourself. Fear of failure can seem imobilizing....I know! But you can only fail if you never try!!


An awesome thing I've seen is FEAR...False Evidence Appearing Real! FALSE my loverlies! A lie straight from the deciever of your souls who longs to see you unhappy and afraid...That's NO way to live! Get up and work your way into the life you've either been afraid to live...or havn't seemed to find beneath the guise of these flubber suits...and that's all they are! Outward manifestations of insecurities...lack of disciple etc....but the good news is those suits are flammable and will incinerated in the fires of determination and hard work ;) !


Okies...tangent over for the time being....please let me know if you read this and am inspired to either start or REstart your journey and I can help you in any way! I believe in you! Let's rock this year!!
