Meet my body

This is a blog dedicated to my weight loss and yours too, if you want to join me! My plan is to take before and after pics to chart my progress, post stats and goals, exchange healthy recipes, and discuss workout tips and success stories. My hope is that by having to report to readers about my weight loss, I will stick to it because of the pressure! Anyway, we're starting at the very beginning (a very good place to start).

Please note: I do realize that I am blessed to have lost so much weight already, so shortly after the birth of my second child. I do not take it for granted, nor am I complaining about the body I have. It's fine for now. I just want to gradually take off those last few pounds, and definitely tone the flab that's left behind.

So here we go!



Here are my stats (as of Sept. 1):

Current

145 pounds

waist - 32"

hips - 41"

bust - 39 1/2"

(yikes!!!!)



Goal

135 pounds

waist - 28"

hips - 39"

bust - who am I kidding? Let's leave that one where it is!



Okay, now that I've just laid it all out there (I feel really vulnerable now, by the way), let's get to it! If you want to join me feel free to post your stats - or start your own blog and link it to mine!
