My Weight Loss Story
In August I moved back to Montana from Texas and was heavier than I had ever been! Not realizing how much I weighed or how big I had gotten, only that my pant size was climbing and I could no longer fit into many of my favorite clothes. Moving home made me come to a realization that I let my weight get out of control! My mom and I decided to go on a major wieght loss journey on August 11th. We both had about the same amount to loose and had a goal to loose it by her wedding date which was September 27th. When I started taking Phentermine I weighed 156.8 and the goal I set for myself was to be 128 by that date. I knew it was going to be hard, as I have tried many diets in the past and loosing weight isn't easy. This time I knew I was going to loose it, I could see myself at my goal wieght, which I could only imagine and wonder about before. This time I was excited to loose it, and I knew I could! And I did! By September 27th I weighed 130! Two pounds shy of my goal, but I was ok with it because I knew I had done my best , and I could continue to do so. My mom and I kind of worked as a team, I believe that was main reason for our success. We both were tired of dieting and being over weight.. so we deticated two months to loosing it and making life a changing decision as to what we wanted in life rather than worry about weight anymore! I met my goal weight of 128 by early October and have set a new goal for myself, which is 122 by Thanksgiving! Go to my Photo page to see before and after pictures!
