10 Week Update...

Hey all...

 

Wow time has really flown by!

I can't believe how long it has been since i have updated my little blog here. I am sorry I have been so busy and distracted.

 

Well for my numbers! I am 10 weeks out and have lost 62lb! I have gone from a 47BMI to a 37BMI. I am very happy with my results. I don't think I would call my self a supper fast looser, but I am keeping it steady. Other thank a 3 weeks stall somewhere in the middle, I have been loosing about 3lb a week. That I can live with :)

I have gone from a size 22/2X to a size 18/XL I am so happy! And everyone is really starting to notice the changes. I think that is one of the most encouraging things...

 

I have also begun to really like exercise! I have started going to Zumba once or twice a week depending on my schedule... I just love it! For all of you girls out there who hate exercise but love to dance, this is for you! The friends you make at these classes are supper awesome! They keep you motivated, and wanting to come back. Its like a little support group all its own. At least that is how mine is, I really hope they are all like that...

 

I know My Fitness Pall is my life saver and best friend lately... All of my friends who are on there supporting me every day are just wonderful! Thanks so much! You keep me going! If any of you want to follow me or need a little extra support of your own you can friend me on MFP my screen name is the same. amberlydw8

 

I have some new NSV's over the past few weeks...

  • I can cross my legs!!! It has been forever since I have been able to cross my legs! Awesome!
  • I can run for and not feel like I am going to die! (not very far, but its so much better than before!)
  • My knees, feet and back don't hurt anymore!
  • I don't feel like the "fat girl" in the room anymore! I know I have a ways to go yet, but its amazing the change in my confidence levels...
  • I can walk miles with out getting tired!
  • I have a waist line! Its awesome!

Well, That is what I got so far... Everyone keep up the good work...

Let me know if you have any questions I am an open book :)

or if any NSV's of your own you want to share!
