Pictures

Here's some time for some motivation.  I figured I would post before and current pictures (I'm not to the after yet, as I haven't hit my goal weight yet). 

This is my boyfriend and I on my birthday in 2009.  I'm guessing I was about 170 or so here.

This was about 2 weeks before I joined Weight Watchers.  I was about 189 here.
 
 This was March, 19, 2011.  This was the first picture where I could see a change in myself.  I was 177.6 here.

This was about a month ago for a friend's wedding.  Weight was 161.4.
 
 This is my favorite picture of myself at the moment.  I don't remember when this was taken, but it was definitely after I joined Weight Watchers.  My face looks a lot thinner and my skin is pretty clear. :-)

I don't any current pictures uploaded, but I will post them next time.  I haven't lost a whole lot of weight since the last picture.  I'm down to 156.8 and I have very few clothes that fit, and NO bras that really fit.  That's exciting.  We joined the gym that's right next to our apartment complex, and we are working out in the morning 4-5 times a week.  I do more cardio than anything, while my boyfriend, Venkata, balances his time equally between cardio and weights.  The awesome thing is that I have lost EVERY week since we've joined.  The not-so-awesome thing is that my weight loss has slowed down since I hit about 25 pounds lost.  I am thinking about going back to running in a week or two to up the intensity of my workout.  Lately, I've been reading up about celebrity work-out plans.  I'm real interested to see how they keep their bodies looking good.  I'm sure it's easier for them because they have personal trainers and many times personal chefs, but I enjoy cooking and working out.  

Until next time,

Shannon
