For example, there is only a three pound difference in these pictures, taken exactly two weeks apart:
I know the pictures are blurry if you try to make them big - I don't know exactly what I did but I messed them up in the collage-making process! - but there's definitely a difference in my waist and hips. It has been a little nerve-wracking to watch the scale-weight-progress slow down, but at this point I am just trusting the process.
...And thinking way too much about Microbiology to waste much time worrying.
I can tell my body fat levels are dropping anyway because I am walking around in these all the time:
And I am in Florida. And it's August.
On that note, I cannot believe it's been over a year since Max and I moved here. And today is our three year anniversary! :) I may not gush about Max much on the ol' blog, but I am absolutely blessed to have this incredible marriage and relationship and am forever grateful for the honesty, love and support we share. :)
Happy Monday! :)
Congrats to you and Max! And you look great. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much!! =)
DeleteThe comment box doesn't show on my computer! :( so i hope you don't mind me commenting on a comment! Haha! Happy Anniversary to you guys! Your progress is definitely noticeable in such a short time, keep it up!!
DeleteAhh Sable you are looking fantastic! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Britt! <3 I appreciated your Tweet this AM too!
DeleteAww happy anniversary! You're looking awesome :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Tara!!!! <3 <3
DeleteHappy Anniversary!
ReplyDeleteYou look fantastic. Even in the small pic, you can tell your wait is totally cutting in. Did you get your suit?
I did!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited. I can barely squeeze my BUTT into it though. LOL
DeleteI can see a big difference in your legs too! This is really exciting to watch, haha.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kate! <3
DeleteHehe, I have a huge collection of fuzzy sucks. They're the way to go. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love them!!!!!!
DeleteThat's a great difference and progress! Congrats! Something I'm hoping to see once I start lifting heavy properly- and learning to take less notice of the scale which I think I can see a bit of difference with already. And- you just gotta love socks lol.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Ashleigh! Yes, definitely ignore the scale, especially when you're starting lifting! =)
DeleteStill looking amazing :)
ReplyDeleteI think your love and appreciation for Max actually does come through very strongly on the blog - and the pic of you two together in the header never fails to make me smile because it's so genuine and heart-warming.
Really? Thank you so much =) I feel like I should gush about him more - like I see other bloggers do - but it just doesn't fit in with the theme of the blog ya know?
DeleteYou look awesome. I wear fuzzy socks and drink hot cocoa year round in Southern VA when it's 90 so I feel you on that one!
ReplyDeletehahaha!!!! I am the same way! It was 100 today & I'm wearing a sweatshirt. =( Old lady. haha!
DeleteCongratulations to you both :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Maria! <3
Delete1) You looking amazing...love these progress pics
ReplyDelete2) Happy Anniversary to you and Max....the fact that he supports you during contest prep as well as your overall goals speaks volumes about him
3) I need those socks...it might be hot all year round in Mumbai but they're worth blasting the AC for :)!
Thank youuuuuu! =) He is an amazing guy & I am lucky to have him!
DeleteThere is definitely a noticeable difference between those two pictures, even though it's only 3 lbs on the scale! Good work! And Happy Anniversary, congrats to you two!
ReplyDeleteThank you Steph! <3 I emailed you! Sorry it took forever!
DeleteCongrats to you and Max!
ReplyDeleteThank you S! <3
DeleteHappy anniversary to you and Max!! I can't believe you've been in Florida for over a year now either! Awesome stuff :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Allie! =)
DeleteGreat progress! Love the socks. I've always got cold feet so I wear socks like these every day around the house. Not so sexy but oh so cosy :-)Congrats on your anniversary!
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog. Congratulations on all your progress. I train CrossFit but just for fun, although there is some healthy competition. Good luck with the rest of your training! Oh, and I posted a great recipe idea you might like on my blog today.
ReplyDeleteYou look great!...but then again, you always do! And yeah, I'm a fuzzy socks kinda girl too. I get it!
ReplyDeleteYou are just teasing us with those tiny photos woman!
ReplyDeleteGotta make 'm come back for more? ;)
Can not wait to see you rock that stage! Decided on the bikini yet?
Congrats on your 3 years with your man <3
Congrats on 3 years!!! And i'm rocking my compression socks all the time! cold feet and sore quads - two problems solved!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing! And I hope you have a wonderful anniversary celebration!!
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary! You are looking great!!
