25 pounds GONE

Wow!!!!!! So this is what 25 pounds looks like!

I'd take more pictures (side view, face shot, etc) but once again, my camera ran out of batteries! Gotta juice that baby up!

Today, I hit my 25 pound weight loss and I've lost 10% of my total body weight (plus a pound)! I got a magnet for my fridge for the 25 pounds, and a key chain for my 10% lost! I am on top of the world!

Who hoooo!!!!!!!!1

Diana

soon will finish my 16th week

1st taken in January, this one take today. Can you tell any difference?

here i am, on track, exercising, eating right, staying positive! I wanted to try taking these pictures to show my 20 pound weight loss. When I reach 24 pounds lost, I will have lost 10% of my weight! Hooray! I think I get a magnet or something.

I am feeling so healthy moving so much easier. I can't wait to be at my goal weight 135-140 and really understand what it is like to be healthy and not fear furthur health problems dying young.

Oh, and I have started a program with the Berkeley HeartLab and they are monitoring my cholesterol (which wasn't too bad, though my good cholesterol was low and my bad cholesterol was high, AND, worst, my insulin was elevated). The dietician who is following me is holding a weight loss challenge and whoever looses the most weight in a certain period of time will win a prize AND be highlighted in a flier to help motivate other HeartLab patients! I totally want to win. So far, the average weight loss for those participates ws only 4 pounds - I can totally BEAT that!
