MC - Final Stats

I have been weaning myself off the lemonade for the past 3 days. It's really not been bad at all. The first day I had fresh squeezed OJ for breakfast and it was such a sweet treat! It felt really thick and heavy though and it was hard for me to drink all of it. Even when I 50/50 with water.

Yesterday I had the most delicious peach ever! I've always enjoyed fresh produce, but I've never really been a big peach eater. I bought several more! I'm looking forward to more of those juicy Georgia peaches!



So, as far as final stats on my body and the physical changes I have lost 8 pounds and inches all around. Although, I measured myself with a standard measuring tape (dumb, I know) because I didn't have anything else. It's been hard to figure out what exact measurements are, but I know I've lost inches cause my clothes are fitting better. My BMI started at 23.09 and is now at 21.68. That's pretty great! I'm no longer at the higher end of average, I'm right in the middle which is a good cushion!

I think a lot of that also has to do with my increase in exercising. I've only missed 2 days since starting the cleanse and I've been getting in more miles. Gotta prep for that 1/2 marathon. It's only 3 months away (Ann). :)

Anyway, I've decided to go ahead and put the pictures on here. Might as well. I may end up taking them off in about a week or so, though. They are pretty scary. Lucky for you all I spray tan!

I'll do each body shot before and after so it'll be easier to see the difference instead of just doing all befores and all afters together.

Here's pre-MC front. (JD took all these, I'm not sure why he chopped off limbs and heads, but I'm grateful you can't see my face now).



Post-MC front. Soon maybe I'll see some abs!



This side shot makes me look like I'm pregnant or I've got a beer gut. Since I'm not pregnant and drink about 10 beers a year, take your choice!



No more gut! On my way to a flat belly! Post-MC.

I DID IT! Dang! You look good! Haha



So, again. No shame. But those will probably be coming down soon. So get your laughs while you can! I chose that swimsuit because I love it and I bought it last summer and have only been able to wear it a few times because my arse has just outgrown it. It was a goal of mine to get back in it this summer. I'm still not confident in it, but it's an improvement.

I also have some of my face over the few days. I noticed I was getting Jessica Simpson cheeks. Hey, we all love her and she's beautiful! But she's gotten some chipmunk cheeks lately.

Here's me on Day 1. This was my first lemonade drink. I'm actually kinda missing those. I miss the cayenne so much I sprinkle it on my lettuce and carrots!



Day 5. Looking a little orange here. I think I had just spray tanned.



This morning - I literally rolled outta bed, brushed my teeth and took this. Sorry. It's the shame thing, remember?



So there you have it. My journey in pictures. If you stuck with me for the past 10 days to read my complaints and ramblings with no phots, KISS YOUR BRAIN! It's all worth it now. You know I wouldn't let you down! :)
