February. Blegh SNOW

Shall we do a recap?

                                  Yes, LETS!

After three pregnancies and 80lbs of weight gain (my pre-first baby weight was 180), I started my third pregnancy at 260lbs. With my first two pregnancies, I had no morning sickness. This last time around though? It was so bad that I lost 15lbs. It lasted up until around 16 weeks too. Thankfully I only gained back a healthy 20lbs (making it 265 on the day baby 3 was born), which within the first month of post-partum I had lost. I walked every day, and limited my sugar and really watched what I ate and drank.

          Then my husband went back to work. I had managed 40lbs of weight loss by this point (225), but with not being able to walk as much as I wanted to and some added stress, I gained back 20lbs through the summer.

I kicked myself back into gear in October. I only just fit into my size 22 work pants, which were my original pants when I started working over 2 years ago. Starting back to work was good, I felt good and people commented on my energy levels (you have a 6mo and you're back to work?! How do you have so much energy?!)

From Thrive, to TruVision, to Keto pills, these all helped my energy levels. I'm still taking the Keto pills, and I walk 4km every morning before work.

This was me within the first two weeks of my new workout and pill regime.

And NOW----->

My weight flucuated up and down a few pounds throughout the month. A couple stressful days at work led to a few low-carb beers here and there, but I am happy to say that through the month I lost enough inches to go from that 22 size pants to a 20, and almost down to an 18 (it was slightly snug, but I need a belt to keep my 20 size jeans up now). I also had to buy smaller underwear because my others kept falling down on me. I also bought size Large pajamas.

In total I've gone from a 2/3X to a L/XL. I've lost 9 pounds in the last month, and countless inches.

I feel great most days. The cold weather still gets to me though, but I am trucking through winter. 

I want to thank everyone for their encouragement! It really means a lot.
