1/2 point of weight loss!!

Hello!
The last time we "spoke
I was just beginning my weight loss journey in January as a sort of extended New Year's Resolution.  After 8.5 months of Weight Watchers and 2 months of the Couch to 5 K program I am feeling tons better about myself, I know I am looking better and I am in much better shape!! I have lost 43 lbs, and am about halfway to my weight loss goal!  As a part of my quest, I've decided to take pictures at significant landmarks wearing the same swimsuit so people/me can see the differences more significantly.  So...Here are the first half!
September 2011: approx. 228.6 lbs
May 2012: Approx. 205 lbs

and finally, today (8/17/12) at approx. 185 lbs

 It feels REALLY exciting to be able to see such significant progress. Obviously I look diva-riffic in that first picture...not really sure why i look like a limp noodle in the second, and am molto STOKED in the third.

Let me tell you, it is HARD work. Every day is a struggle. But I'm growing to love healthy food and exercise (although I still love me some tasty treats!!)

I've pretty much decided that I am aiming for to lose a full 100lbs.  After which we are going to have the biggest, most awesomest party ever.  Maybe a build-your-own salad high-five fest!

Just thought I would let everyone know about my progress!

Exclamation point!

  1. Kaylie, you're looking great! I had a pretty big weight loss journey back when I first went to WWU, but over the years I've fallen off track and lost most of that progress. I've been trying to get myself motivated enough to stick to it, and seeing what you've achieved will definitely inspire me. Keep it up!
