This Is My Year!
I plan to shed 125 lbs. in the next 56 weeks. This is my journey...
End of 12th Week, Getting Over Strep Throat
So today marks the end of 12 weeks, 3 months into my journey. It's the second week of Body For Life and I have a late start. I am only one more day away from finishing my antibiotics from having a bad case of strep throat. I think I caught it at the gym. I didn't clean off the equipment BEFORE using it and so.....I caught strep and have had a 10 day lay-off to get well. I hit the gym hard tomorrow, though.
Here are my pic comparisons, the first was at 275 lbs. when I started, the next is today at 253 1/2 lbs. Over the week, I shed 2 lbs.
My measurements for the week compared to last week:
neck: 14 1/2" (no change)
upper arm: 14 1/2" (no change)
chest: 42 1/4" (down 1/4")
waist: 34 1/2" (down 1/4")
hips: 50 3/4" (down 1/4")
thigh: 32" (down 1/4")
calf: 18 1/2" (no change)
Now, I like to do this occasionally...compare my very first measurements from Feb. 9, 2011, to now, April 17, 2011:
neck: 15" now: 14 1/2" (down 1/2")
upper arm: 15" now: 14 1/2" (down 1/2")
chest: 45 1/2" now: 42 1/4" (down 3 1/4")
waist: 37" now: 34 1/2" (down 2 1/2")
hips: 53 1/2" now: 50 3/4" (down 2 3/4")
thigh: 34" now: 32" (down 2")
calf: 19 now: 18 1/4" (down 3/4")
So, if you add up all the inches dropped, it equals 12 1/4"...now that's what I call progress.

About Me
- Kat
- I have fluctuated over the years with my weight. Every time I have had a baby, I gained a lot of weight.
I have three wonderful boys to show for it!
Each time, I hit the gym and shed most of it.
This time I cannot blame pregnancy.
I am a stress and comfort eater and I admit it. Through two divorces (to and with the same man), I have finally come out on the good end of things.
I am blessed to be re-married to the first boy I ever had a crush on.
Now, we have a 1 year old baby and I have never been heavier.
I am starting this journey at 5'9" and 275 lbs. and 46.7% body fat.
