10 lbs Down *pics*

About to post some pretty revealing pics so you're being warned... Before getting pregnant, I was 130 (5'4). Got to 170 during pregnancy, went down to 140 fairly easily. After some months of light exercise & diet, I got down to 130 again. Then 125, then 120, then 115. I stayed at that weight for over a year, maybe close to 2 yrs. But like the end of 2010, beginning of 2011 I started gaining weight. Idk if it's because I started up birth control again, or cos I started taking anti-anxiety meds, or a combo of both. It's like, one day I was fine, then I felt like a fat ass. I got up to 150 at some point, & weighed 150 the beginning of this year.

Finally from mid-May to mid-June I lost 10 lbs. So I'm now 140. It's a very slow ass process. My lowest so far is 138. I still wear the same size pants. My measurements are 36-31-38. Sorry for the essay   I'm really trying to stay motivated & eat right, it's hard. Some days I think I look fairly skinny, well 'normal,' other times I feel 4 months pregnant. I feel like all my fat is just right on my stomach & hips. I re-started 30DS, I'm on day 5. I don't think that is enough exercise though. Any comments or suggestions are definitely welcome.

thank you. I'm sitting here telling myself that even though I only half believe it... sometimes I look in the mirror & feel exactly the same as I did months ago. do you ever get like that ?

I wish I had your body! Im jealous...good job!

I can for sure see a difference. I finished my 30DS, now i am using my fitness pal to keep track of my calories. I just got a bike so i plan on riding everyday after work. The pool is also open to i go swimming every weekend. I also try and walk a lot. My main habit is over eating. Its so hard not to cave in and do it. I have my moments but i try and control myself. But smurf me controlling my self around food is a joke. You're doing a good job from what i am seeing in your pics.

did you lose any weight or inches after completing the 30DS ? I started using myfitnesspal a few days ago too. I like it. I know how you feel, sometimes I just want to eat everything, & by everything I mean smurf food, not even healthy food. I also used to drink a lot more often but I cut that out since I only like mixed drinks   a lot of sugar & empty calories... are you gonna do another workout video too ?

Quoting MommyToABella:" I feel like that everyday  "

yea it's the worst feeling... losing weight is seriously the suckiest smurf in the world.

I lost about 20 pounds with dieting and the 30DS. I wanted to do insanity but now i am just thinking about joining the gym.

Yeah i wish is was just as easy to loose it all like it is to gain.

oh wow, that's great ! good job

damn I should've put a poll... grr

You look great and are doing a fantastic job. I lost 25 lbs in about 4 months. Went from 130 to 105. Technically it took me like 6 months bc I took a break but if I didn't take a break, it would've only been 4 months lol. I calorie counted, ate super healthy and did p90x as well as jogging 7 days a week. If you don't feel a change now, you will soon. Good luck and good job!
