Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Annlouise - Your changes were dramatic and substantial and noticeable and fabulous. If you are a " bit down " because you hoped for a more dramatic change, then perhaps it's time to re-evaluate your expectations. The belly fat did not arrive in 12 weeks; it will not leave in 12 weeks. From everything I've read, belly fat is usually the last to be removed, and takes a long time, and is more about nutrition than exercise. Do you really hope to have " better results " during the next 12 weeks? Or are you looking to " continue the excellent results that you've had? " I remember that when I initially lost some weight in 2003, I had some unrealized expectations of what would change in my life because of the weight change. When that didn't happen, I was disappointed. Then I realized that my change had been wonderful - it was my expectations of external circumstances beyond my control that needed adjustment. And, it's like what Dr. Phil says in his book - it's one thing to shoot for the stars, but quite another to be shooting for something unrealistic. I'm 5'5; no matter how much weight I lose, I will not be 5'8 " . I have an hourglass shape; no matter how much I lose, this will not change. my 2 cents n At 07:33 AM 3/25/2006, you wrote: >Alright, week 12 ended yesterday and I took new photos this morning. >I am a bit down because I had hoped for a more dramatic change, plus I >woke up retaining water and I just don't think I look as good as I >could.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 GREAT googly moogly!!! You did an incredible job and it shows in every picture. Are you having vision difficulties?? You went sailing waay under 200, dropped all those sizes, lost your back fat, flattened your belly, shrunk your thighs. The changes are really, really dramatic and you're soooo close! Don't you dare start your second challenge discouraged and mopey. You did a fantastic job. If you keep doing exactly what you're doing, you'll be totally floored by what happens next! Even you will be able to see it! LOL I was wearing size 12 jeans when I started my first BFL challenge and I ended it at a size 6. You are RIGHT THERE and you can do it too!

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 AnnLouise, how can you say you didn't have the results that you were looking for when you went from an 18 to a 12!! That means you now have to shop in an entierly different part of the store than you used to. That is FANTASTIC! And 19 pounds in 12 weeks is great too. You have to see the possitive, because to do anthing else will be cheating yourself of a well deserved pat on the back. Barbara who has NEVER purchased a size 12 in her life and is extremely envious > > Alright, week 12 ended yesterday and I took new photos this morning. > I am a bit down because I had hoped for a more dramatic change, plus I > woke up retaining water and I just don't think I look as good as I > could.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Yeah, what she said. I think you look incredible. You should be very proud of yourself!!!!!!! Good to know you were a 12 once . Maybe I will be a 6 someday too. Of course, you are probably a 2 now, right? sigh. Diane At 12:29 PM 3/25/2006, you wrote: >GREAT googly moogly!!!

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 If you have missed seeing flowers through the winter, you really should go to the photo album and take a look at Zavie's pictures. He is using his bragging rights to show off his brilliant, colorful photography, just one of his hobbies. LOL Keep them coming Zavie.
