10+ Loss Comparison

I was officially 10 lb down last week! 6 weeks and down 10 lb is pretty awesome for me. Since I am nursing miss M and trying not too lose too quickly this has been so great.

I was planning for 1.5 lb a week...but hoping for at least 1. 10 in 6 weeks is one lb more than 1.5 lb a week would have been! I'll take it!

 

I was actually a little frustrated last week because I only lost .2 on my weigh in day. Then later that day I decided to take my measurements all again since I had passed 10 lbs. I was pleasantly surprised that even though I hadn't lost much weight that week I had lost another couple inches! Woohoo! I decided since it was 10 lbs I would do a new set of pics to compare.

 

Looking at the comparisons I feel great. I know I have a lot of work to do...but it's great to see that I really am making progress...even in the small amount of weight I have lost thus far! I am feeling much better in my clothes than I did. A lot of my jeans are way too loose in the thigh (which was almost the case already....they were just too tight in the gut) but they also fall off as I walk because they are too loose at the waist too. :)

 

I have a couple goal goal jeans that are a size smaller that I can put on and zip but I have a pretty wicked muffin top. Hoping to have them fit nicely soon. It's nice to see the progress changing the way my clothes fit. I was wearing maternity jeans still sometimes before I started this journey!!! What?!?! Ya my baby was 7 months old and I was still rocking them. Ha...not! I guess it was fitting considering how pregnant I still looked. At least now I look at least a month less pregnant right?!  

 

 

 

I actually took all my Measurements again this morning too.

Holy Moly!!!  24 1/2 Inches lost over all! In Just 7 weeks and 11 lbs! Amazing Motivation!!!! I can't wait to see my body keep transforming and to keep feeling better! I am off to reward myself with a new bike :) (I needed a new one anyway...but it will be great exercise too! Two birds one stone!)

 

Thank you all for your encouragement and motivating words! You will never know how much I appreciate that you all believe in me :)
