2010: 170s

by Jess on June 21st, 2010 in 2010, The 170s

I finally broke past the 180s and reached the 170s! I haven’t been in the 170s since 2006, and I’m ecstatic. I know I will never see the 180s again. It’s because I no longer want to be thin. Instead, I want to be healthy.

The shift in mentality makes it easier to just keep doing what I’m doing. I feel great, every single day. I find balance. I don’t beat myself up. And I can enjoy eating out and taking a break from training.

I am also pretty close to losing 90 pounds total! Now that is just plain exciting.

End 2006: 90 Pounds Lost

by Jess on March 5th, 2010 in 2006, Lightest Weight, The 170s

I ended 2006 at 173 pounds, a total loss of 90 pounds in 6 months. It was amazing. I felt great. And, I was exercising so much that I basically ate whatever I wanted to and quit monitoring, which eventually led to my downfall. But anyway, I know that I can do it. I know I can get down to the 170s, and when I get there this time, I’m going to keep going.

The pants I’m wearing are a size 10 from Gap. And they’re the smallest size 10s I own. I intend to fit back into them one day, and then ditch them for 8s. This picture was taken in Taiwan in December 2006.

My mom and me in Taiwan. I’m about 6 inches taller than her.
