PRE PREGNANCY JEANS!!!

3/18 Weight: 143lbs total pounds lost: 18lbs, 13 more to go
Body fat %: 21.8% total body fat % lost: 6.2%


WOO HOO!! This was a big deal for me. I actually fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans last Saturday, but I am just now getting around to taking a pic. Ever since I started my "fitness journey" on Jan 1, I have been trying on these jeans--about every week. When I first started, I couldn't even get my legs into them. Then it was "I can get my booty in", then it was "okay now I can pull them all the way up" then "ok now I can button them....now I can zip....now I can zip and button, but man they're tight...now I can actually walk in them..." and NOW I can actually wear them with a tight shirt. Sweet!! I'm very excited as this means that I'm basically back to where I started pre-pregnancy, so I can fit into about 75% of my wardrobe now, THANK GOODNESS! Now from here on out will be getting back to "pre-wedding" and then some!!
I was kind of bummed last Saturday, as I didn't meet my goal. But that just gives me more motivation to work even harder. I can't believe I'm already down to 143... I feel a lot bigger than I did before I was pregnant, and maybe that's just because I'm in "fitness" mode and I want to be in really good shape--which I was definitely NOT in shape before I was pregnant. In fact, I was just looking at some of my past body fat percentages, and even back in 2006, I was at 23%. So I am at a lower body fat % than I was when I got married, that is AWESOME! That just means that when I do hit the low 130's I will be even more toned than I was at my wedding.
I'm really excited to get to my goal. I'll be taking more pics in a little bit when I hit 141 so that I can do another "comparison" pic after losing yet another 10 pounds!
