Julie76 251 Posted September 8, 2011 So today I am 5 weeks out. I have lost 42 lbs. Had a week stall when TOM came to visit but all is well now. Some of the NSV's I have encountered: Going from a size 18 to a size 12 pants and XXL shirts to L. All of my clothes are way too big now except for the ones I held on to and thank goodness I did. Not getting out of breath to do anything.... and I do mean anything. My boyfriend putting his arms around my waist and being able to grab his elbows with his hands...and commenting on it. Ex-boyfriends seeing me and telling me how great I look. I have a ton but I have saved the best for last........ And sex is so worth it now!!!! Ok, ok. I know TMI .... but it is so true.lol I hope everyone else is doing great as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JenniLee0628 3 Posted September 9, 2011 Congrats! Can't wait to be there! What types of workouts are you doing to keep the weight/inches shredding? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julie76 251 Posted September 9, 2011 Congrats! Can't wait to be there! What types of workouts are you doing to keep the weight/inches shredding? I walk and ride my horses right now. Well for the last two weeks anyway. I haven't had much weight come off in the past two weeks either but I have lost many inches. Went from a size 16 to a 12 in a week. I really want to get in the gym and start working out but I work 2 jobs and it's hard for me to find time. I just keep walking about and hour a day and increase when I have a little more time to.

KellyL 173 Posted September 9, 2011 Wow, that's amazing in 5 wks girl, congrats!! How many calories/carbs/protein do you get in a day you think? You are getting sexercise haha, good for you!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julie76 251 Posted September 9, 2011 I get in between 500-700 calories a day. I am high on the carbs...at least higher than I'd like, but I am very active .LOL! I don't get all of my Protein but staying right around 50 grams. I may try to up the protein and lower the carbs because I have stalled only losing 2 lbs in the last two weeks. That's my goal anyway. Hard to get in everything while working so much. 1 Ruby reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
