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!

Good for you, Girl!! For 1: being brave enough to post your stats. That really takes confidence, humility (well, maybe not for you, 'cause you already have a bod others are jeal of :) ), and guts. 2: already being the size you are. I'm pretty sure those were probably my stats for a few years (except of course the bust) before I even started thinking about getting pregnant, let alone after having TWO kids! For 3: starting a blog to motivate yourself and others to feel and be better! You are very inspiring. I love you!!

Here is my goal: exercise four times a week to get toned, be in better shape, and be more flexible. This may seem weak sauce, but I've got to start with something practical. I've been exercising somewhat regularly for a few weeks/month (not really keeping very good track, obviously) or so now and that goal seems like something I can do. I'll explain myself if you want me to. Also, if you really want me to post my stats so you are not alone feeling vulnerable, I will, but I have my own reasons for not really wanting to. Good luck in your endeavors!!
