LoseItKacy 347 Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) HW: 257 Surgery Weight: 235 (September 30th) Today: 202!!! So close to Onederland! I've lost 55 pounds! I've gone from a size 22/24 to a 13/14. From a 3x on top to a large! I work out 5 days a week and I've ran my fastest mile (12:59) ever! I survived an intense yoga session yesterday! Before I was too big to even attempt it! I no longer have to shop plus size! I'm off all of my acid reducers for acid reflux! The last picture is a dress I bought thinking as I skimmed down would still look cute and be wearable. The picture shows when I first bought it in the top left. The next two are what it looked like yesterday. And the bottom right is the exact same dress just different color, in a size large. I'm finally getting my life back. I couldn't be happier. I fly to Colorado to visit my boyfriend for the first time since surgery and I'm so excited to see him AND to fit on an airplane for once!

IncredibleShrinkingMan 437 Posted November 16, 2015 This is a very impressive pace. Don't get upset if in a couple pounds (in Onederland), the numbers get a little sticky. It's normal, and it's for the better, and will make your weight loss better quality in the long run. My current stall is about two weeks old and I am learning to love and embrace it for what it means. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

songsmith 334 Posted November 17, 2015 That sounds terrific! Have you shared pics with your boyfriend or is he in for a not so "big" surprise? (Also, I love that you're doing squats. Compounds were my fave before I put on too much weight that they started hurting my knees. Too many women think they'll get "huge" if they lift weights.)

LoseItKacy 347 Posted November 17, 2015 I have showed him. I get too excited lol but I think he will still be pleasantly surprised. I look pretty different. The first pic is the last time he saw me at my heaviest. I love lifting. I'm really strong. I've put a lot of research into my exercise and studies show that muscle helps burn a lot more fat. So for me lifting is a must. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
