No Line on the Horizon

My journey to become a United States Sailor.

Its Not a Hill its a Mountain, When you Start out the Climb

20100708



So I figured that I need to get this bad-boy kicked off the right way. So, of course, I'm going to have to post some before and after pics.

Now, that being said, I didn't do this the right way. I realized when I did a lifestyle overhaul that I should take some before pics for comparisons sake. The problem was that I didn't want to look at them afterwards. LOL

So what I have instead are pictures from around the time that I started training and pictures now.


BEFORE







AFTER (So far.....)





As you can see I looked like the Goodyear Blimp in the before pic. I didn't realize just how big I had gotten. I got up to a size 20 at that point. In the "After" pic its still not so pretty, but damn..I've come a LONG way!I'm now down to a size 14, but my current weight is 195.

I started at 240, which means that I've lost 145 Hooyah!! The strange thing is that 14 is the lowest size I ever got to (this was back in HS!) and at that point I weighed like 145-150. So the only thing that I can figure out is that I've toned more than ever and put on a good deal of muscle weight. But Hey! I'll take it! Nothing burns fat like muscle!

So I've now done the prerequisite "Before" and "After" shots and now I'm free to delve into some other topics. Some of the things that I would like to address are: nutrition, exercise routines, Navy Fears, Navy Questions, Navy Hopes/Dreams, and things of this sort.

If you want to contribute or have a question for me, please post it in the comments and if you don't have a livejournal account just leave your first name. A BIG shout out to my girls on the Women (Re)Defined Facebook page. We all stalk that page like crazy!

TTFN!
