My Success So Far! (Pics Included)

  • Popular Post

I don't get to come on to VST very often, but I thought I'd stop by and share my success thus far.

My name is Britnee. I'm 23 and have an almost 3 year old daughter. Her and school are my priorities. While making my daughter my main priority, I realized that something had to be done about my weight. I wanted to stick around for her. I've been her only constant since the day she was born, so I want her to have me around for many many years into the future. :)

Anyways, I started the process in Aug '12. I had surgery on Oct. 10th, 2012. I have one of those special insurances that doesn't expect 6 months of weigh-ins.

My HW was 316.

My GW is 175 (then 130).

My CW is 252.

I have lost 63 lbs in the last three months. That is amazing! I work out daily. Doing a number of things that include: walking, Zumba, Wii Fit, and recently took up running.

This is the best decison I've ever made!

I have more energy to keep up with my daughter, I am happier, and last but certainly NOT least, I am HEALTHIER! I love life. <3

Here are some progression pictures. :)

Update on my current stats!

I've lost 100.2 lbs and just entered my 7th month post op on the 10th. Feeling fantastic! I'm part of the glorious century club now!

My goal has been adjusted to 150. Then possibly 130, depending on how I feel. :))

I absolutely swear by low carb and lots of water! All of these things plus Protein have been my saving grace!
