Thank you ladies of Elite for your inspiration! I'm wearing jeans again!

[Puddles]

A huge THANK YOU to the ladies of Elite for inspiring me the past few months. I don't contribute much to the board here, but I spend a fair amount of time reading and learning from everyone's posts.

I'm more fit now than I was when I was 18 years old, I'm 36 now. Last week, for the first time in about 15 years, I bought jeans (3 pairs of funky jeans...love em!), and then to top that off, today I fit back into my size 9 prom dress that was actually too small to wear to my prom 18 yrs. ago (well...it fits in the waist, but my boobs are a little crushed but I can't complain about that, hehehe)!!! I just packed up all of my "fat clothes" and they're heading over to be donated to Salvation Army. Damn it feels good!

A year ago I started loosing fat...I'm down over 60 lbs. now and still have a good amount of work to do, I'm planning on a tummy-tuck and breast aug. in Feb. I started lifting about 2 months ago (5 days a week) with my husband who's trained since he was a teenager. My greatest thanks goes to him because of his love for me and dedication to making me feel so good, both physically and emotionally.

I just wanted to share my happiness with you all.



THANK YOU LADIES!

Thanks again, ladies!

Bikini...I bought stretch jeans so they'll fit me for a while! LOL

I've still got a lot of work to do and knocking off these last 15 lbs of bf seems to be the toughest, but I'll get there by Feb. and then I'll post some before and after pics. My weight loss slows down in the summer here in FL and picks back up as the weather cools off, no wonder autumn is my favorite season! Since I started lifting 2 months ago I've only lost about 2 lbs. but I've seen major differences in my clothes and now have a completely new wardrobe! I haven't been as strict with my diet as I should be due to some recent trips and parties and hubby's been bulking. I figure I've given my metabolism a little boost and now it's time to really get back to it and start cutting.
