progress report: 3 months in (39+ lbs. lost)
You know what time it is!
(THAT'S RIGHT, REGIMEN UPDATE PICTURE TIME, AW YEAHHHH.)
There are an ass-ton of pictures of me looking crazy after the link. Enter at your own risk.
Please disregard my dirty bathroom mirror--it seemed cleaner when the pictures were smaller. ;)
Okay, so...one from the front:
That skirt used to be way too tight, and I just got that sweater this Christmas. Both are already uncomfortably loose on me, and may have to eventually take a seat next to all of the nice shoes, pants, hoodies, and undergarments that I can now swim around in. Methinks it may be time for a donation drop soon.
Side view:
Keeping the butt, losing the gut. I like it.
Stuff I Can Now Wear #4:
I haven't been able to wear this dress in years--the last time it left the house was for a wedding in November 2005. HOLY CRAP WHAT WAS I DOING?
I was going to rock it for New Year's Eve this year, but ended up staying home sick in bed instead. Yes, boring.
Stuff I Can Now Wear #5:
Aw yeah, smaller jeans! The benefits to pack-rattery is that I totally have smaller tops and jeans in my closet that I can now wear again:
(I didn't bother taking pictures of a #6 item, since there are so many in this update already. Suffice to say, I can now fit back into some hot-ass boobalicious tops.)
Besides losing all of that ridiculous weight in my ankles (which--YAY!), it also seems like the double chin has decreased like crazy. The hair, however, is getting pretty wild:
So there you go--three months, 39 lbs. lost. I'm officially back on track, after a lovely holiday season of pasta and sugared goodness, and have ceased taking the appetite suppressant altogether. I'm doing surprisingly okay without it. I have my third follow-up appointment with the doctor on Friday. We'll see how it goes, but I'm feeling pretty positive about it.
See? :)
ETA, for reference: An explanation of what's going on here, links to pictures from when I started (October 2008 - front/back), and at the last picture update (at 1.5 months in).
