Progress pics: 12 weeks out

Ok, 12 weeks out.  Now the fun really begins!  I'm still only seeing slight changes in my body week-to-week, but I'm getting more comments/compliments from people (at the gym mostly) than usual, so I take that to mean I'm progressing.  

August 8th, 12 weeks out, 125 lbs.

Booya, look at that smooth booty! 


I have to admit that losing weight is kind of bittersweet.  On the one hand, I love being leaner and more cut, having all my clothes fit again, and like seeing that cellulite slowly melt away. On the other hand, I hate losing some of my "curves".  I really do love my booty when it's a bit bigger.  And it's totally unfair that I lose weight in my chest too.  I mean come on, I'm already a AA for cryin' out loud!  How is it possible to get even smaller than that??  Well, I'm not sure how it happens, but it does.  So that sucks too.

Random story: I had the worst dream last night that I was two weeks away from the competition and still hadn't organized my posing suits!  I was happy to wake up and realize I in fact still have 12 weeks, but it did make me think that I should probably get on that ASAP.

  3. T you look fabulous! I dropped A LOT of wieght in the chest area...went from a D to a small B...though happy to say I am now a large C. lol
    It sucks like crazy and I feel you need to have 3 or 4 different wardrobes for all the stages in between.

    I refuse to wear pants...Ive learned dresses and skirts work best for me...I have a pretty big booty too....my hips and far larger than my waist.

    Gah Im loving this I love the progress pics and If only my booty looked like that 12 weeks out : P
