I was supposed to have a fill on Friday, I didn't end up getting one. I like being able to eat without worrying about getting sick. I had brunch with friends at 11am this morning and I could eat without anyone questioning why I didn't eat more. It was great. Also, I have an international flight ahead of me so I will likely be super tight when I land. I'm going to Paris for work next Saturday and then spending the following weekend there with a friend. Any bandsters in Paris??
What I need to do to get off this 10 pounds isn't get a fill, it's to step up the exercise! That's where I'm going to get the pounds off, which I would still like to do by my 38th birthday on December 22nd. Totally doable!
For now, I feel really amazing at what I've accomplished and am so happy about my band!
Some comparison pictures from this weekend:
Granted, I have never really known you heavy, but those befores don't even look like you! You have come so far, and you are such an inspiration to me. I hope you have a wonderful time in Paris...France. My mom's hometown.
ReplyDeleteWow! Amazing pics. How awesome , Paris!
ReplyDeleteAnd I would LOVE to be 10 pounds overweight! Celebrate!
You look amazing!!! I love comparison shots. Have fun in Paris!
ReplyDeleteLook at how your eyes have opened up! how wonderful!
ReplyDeleteYou are so pretty! I was looking at your pics on FB this weekend and you look amazing! Have fun in Paris! Can't wait to see you in December! We will be back from MI on the 26th!
ReplyDeleteOh and what's a measly 10lbs when you've already lost a bazillion!! XOXO
You can do it Jen!! You know, I so often go back and read your blog posts when you were at the same point as me (and doing awesome/kicking my ass!)...you look so amazing and are truly shining in those pics!! I hope you have an awesome time in Paris and at Thanksgiving..i know you can get those 10 pounds!
ReplyDeleteYou look so incredible... so proud of you!
ReplyDeleteWow! Fantastic transformation! Just beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing progress!
ReplyDeleteYou do look GREAT!
ReplyDeleteYou don't even look like you in the bigger picture....and 10 pounds overweight...you can knock it off...and yes I can see how it can make you feel better knowing that it is just 10 pounds....have an awesome time in Paris, it's one of my favourite cities!
ReplyDeleteAmazing pix!!! I didn't realize we were 3 weeks apart - my 38th is 11-30!! Happy early bday friend! And enjoy yourself in Paris - probably a great plan to not get a fill before you go! Enjoy your holidays... and again, the pictures are amazing!
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! The comparison photos are incredible!! You look AMAZING!! Only 10 pounds to go is an enviable state to be in -- congratulations to getting there! When you lose one more pound (or a fraction of one), you can celebrate having only a single digit to lose. Woah, right?? Amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt's like looking at 2 completely different people!!! You look gorgeous and your progress speaks for itself. The 10 lbs will come off eventually...gets harder the closer you get. You've done so well!
ReplyDeleteYou look incredible and you totally have this!
ReplyDeleteHave a grea trip!
WOW! You look AMAZING! I don't see 10 extra pounds. And PARIS this weekend? Have a wonderful trip. I've never been, but I hope to someday!
ReplyDeleteOMG...you're gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThat top picture on the right is my favorite.
You have accomplished so much Jenny! You look gorgeous and whether or not you get to goal by your birthday doesn't matter! You'll get there Chica!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! God, remember when we first started? It's hard to believe how much has changed. 10 lbs is NOTHING. You'll get to goal very soon :-)
ReplyDeleteYou were beautiful then but now you are polished. LOVE your gorgeous hair!! I have a hair obsession going on right now - sigh.
ReplyDelete10 pounds is NOTHING. I also remember writing a blog on the this - those times when someone would grumble - oh I need to lose a couple of kilos and I would think .. oh pah. A couple - try a couple of hundred (ok that was an exaggeration but you know what I mean!) Looking good, girl. xxx
looking WONDERFUL!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely stunning!
ReplyDeleteAmazing. You are what the band's about.
ReplyDeleteJen-- you are GORGEOUS! I am so proud for you and of you. You're right to focus on what you've accomplished.
ReplyDeleteChanging up your exercise is a wonderful idea, and staying mindful of that last 10 pounds that you can take off when you're ready. At this point: it is not about what you look like-- you're perfect. It is about finishing what you started and making the point to yourself. But you have your WHOLE LIFE to get there. And you will.
xoxo
Jen - You look amazing and have done such a good job. You are inspirational.
ReplyDeleteI recently read your blog start to finish (no I am not a stalker!). It's interesting to see what your journey has been like. I am going to be banded on December 1st. It's so good to hear that you would do it again.
Thanks so much!
Tracy
