13.8 GONE! — 85 More To Go!

As promised, I’m posting my before and after for month one below.  I’m not completely confident in my own skin yet and this is taking a huge amount of strength to post this to the world!  I can definitely see a difference, but it scares me.  Will I be happy with my “look” once I finally meet my goal weight?  I surely hope so!  So please, be kind to the “skinny girl in the making” below.  She’s on the right path and hopes this picture helps others in her shoes.  ((HUGS)) to all you trying to melt along with me!  We are well on our way!  Month ONE — DOWN!

Since January 2nd, I have lost 13.8 pounds.  It wasn’t easy, but I definitely have learned a LOT and gained a whole NEW lifestyle in just a short month’s time.  I’m so proud of myself for the strides I have made in “Making Marcia Melt”.

To prepare for February, I’ve already prepared my workout plan and have started on my meal plan.  I’ll post it in another posting later today.  Stay tuned!

In the meantime, enjoy my new bod!  Ha!!  =)  Can’t wait to see what this is going to look like in May when I reach my 1/2 way goal!!  Oh ya!!

Month 1 Loss_Feb 2 13

FYI, No Breakdown posting this week.  Instead, I’m going to go enjoy the Super Bowl with my hubby and pupster!  =)  I’ll post my calendar and my Healthy Super Bowl Spread later today though via Twitter & Facebook.

Who do you want to win the Super Bowl?  I’m in it for the commercials?  Let me know which was your favorite!

    I am so proud of you! The biggest difference I notice is in your expressions. Your steps toward your goal are already evident in your aura. I know how hippy-ish that sounds but it’s true :). There’s an extra sparkle already shining through! Keep up the great work!

    Congrats on the new found confidence. Oh, and 9ers all the way.

    Marcia. I am so proud of you. I know it sucks to be forced into a position like this where you have to push yourself so hard, but I truly believe this has happened to us for a reason. We are learning something about ourselves that will help us the rest of our lives. We are learning to take care of ourselves and someday, our families. Push Marcia. When you feel like you can’t go any longer go for five more minutes, five more reps, five more steps, five more.
    You are inspiring. Keep inspiring yourself and others. I will see you in May!
