Not putting 110% effort into it, I gave up.<br /><br /><br />My cousin Melissa had asked me to be a bridesmaid in her Wedding which was August 2<span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">ND</span> 2003, of course i was totally thrilled. When i saw pics of me @ the wedding, I couldn't believe how heavy I looked.<br /><br /><br />My other cousin Jenn was on the program and has lost an amazing amount of weight. Seeing the results she got, i started the program right away...<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/SChhMgHPxTI/AAAAAAAAACw/XnLU_aNv1Og/s1600-h/HeatherIn2003.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5199512637205890354" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/SChhMgHPxTI/AAAAAAAAACw/XnLU_aNv1Og/s400/HeatherIn2003.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/SChhkwHPxUI/AAAAAAAAAC4/4jHnqjE2I4k/s1600-h/2003.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5199513053817718082" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 615px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 379px" height="270" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/SChhkwHPxUI/AAAAAAAAAC4/4jHnqjE2I4k/s400/2003.bmp" width="10" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>This First picture was taken in 2003, second/third pic was taken in 2004.<br /><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213616052532712066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/SFp8LUZ8koI/AAAAAAAAADA/1TQ5fz9j0iQ/s320/me%402003.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176978422620238514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R9hSclIkMrI/AAAAAAAAABY/lBcFyD9U34Q/s400/Fall2004.JPG" border="0" /> <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R9hTIVIkMsI/AAAAAAAAABg/3WMv-o2tr6c/s1600-h/Mein2004.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176979174239515330" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R9hTIVIkMsI/AAAAAAAAABg/3WMv-o2tr6c/s400/Mein2004.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><p><br /><br />This last one, i believe was taken in 2004/2005 </p><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><p><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R9hUMVIkMuI/AAAAAAAAABw/P9YfruPRoI8/s1600-h/Yuck2005.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176980342470619874" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R9hUMVIkMuI/AAAAAAAAABw/P9YfruPRoI8/s400/Yuck2005.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />When I rejoined WW it was summer 2005, I started the program on my own, losing 20-30 pounds on my own. I did <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">exercise</span> video's @ home, went for <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">walks</span> &amp; went to <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Aqua</span> Sizes. May 2006 I Had joined Curves For Women &amp; the WW meeting's in the same week for an extra push. Reaching 150 lbs, I decided I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">didn't</span> want to stop yet. After attending meetings for 8 week's I decided to continue on my own.<br /><br /></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176987824303649522" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R9ha_1IkMvI/AAAAAAAAAB4/iGcwrse27sQ/s320/Summer.JPG" border="0" /><br />I had hit a Plateau with my weight around 145 lbs. After moving in Summer 2007, I had joined a gym close to my work which I felt gave me <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">alot</span> more variety of machines to work out on, and I could concentrate on the area's I felt <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">needed</span> to be worked on more.<br /><br /><br />I am now a member of WW online &amp; enjoy I <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">alot</span>. I find it more motivating, If I feel like I am falling off track, I am able to log into one of the chat room's and get idea's to get myself motivated again + you learn <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">alot</span> from other people <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">experience's</span> along the way. It is also a great way to find recipies for all sorts of food's/drinks. I have learned a major key to weight loss, drink Lots of water &amp; watch your portion sizes &amp; eat slow so your body has time to let you know it's had enough.<br /><br /><br />As of my March 17th 2008 WI, I currently weight 133.8 Lbs. </p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p>For a total of 51.2 Lbs lost in total (Pic below was taken on Feb 15th, 2008) Showing off my new hair style<br /><br /><br /></p><br /><br /><p></p><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R96SaFIkMyI/AAAAAAAAACQ/Zfwe5A9M_SQ/s1600-h/March15,2008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178737598275007266" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R96SaFIkMyI/AAAAAAAAACQ/Zfwe5A9M_SQ/s400/March15,2008.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5184040715607193618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kZNe-xKnkcg/R_FpkIrtuBI/AAAAAAAAACY/BXLxlrk5YwY/s320/275---Oct-1---7,2006,-exerc.bmp" border="0" /><br /></p><br /><br /><div>April 3, 2008:</div><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><div>I have joined a "Walking Club" at my work.
