One Year Out

As of 3/14/2012 it has now been one year since I joined the losers bench. It has been such a joy. I love being able to run a mile without dying over. Shopping in the juniors section again and ordering from ebay without fear of not being able to wear the items.

I've gone from a size 18/20 didn't want to admit it 22. To a size four I even bought a size 1/2 and was able to wear it. I can feel my bone structure in my ribs and it feels weird. The only thing I would change is not exercising regularly. I have alot of loose skin in my inner thighs which is not appealing for bathing suit action.

I have lost a total of 93lbs I went from 230lbs o 137. For those of you on the fence do it.

Here's my before and afters enjoy....

Man I can't wait to be there! I'm a very slow loser and and a year and a half out and am still 40 lbs away from my goal of 128 lbs. You look BEAUTIFUL!!!! Cracks me up though, total proof of vanity sizing - as bad ass as 137 pounds is, there is no WAY it should be a size 2! 130 lbs in high school (mid-late 90's) had me in a size 8! I'm currently 167 lbs and I wriggled into a size 6 pencil skirt, whaaaa?! =P

I can't wait to be able to buy me a pencil skirt sut, a black one with a peplum jacket. A size 10 one.

I buy from ebay too, and you are right, I worried at times, will it fit? I am an ebay seller too, and when I lost weight with the lapband, I kept some of my vintage clothes instead of selling them. However, i can't wait to buy vintage off of ebay too, without worrying.

Wow you look fabulous!
