JUDDD Before and During

Piccina · 04-16-2012, 12:28 PM

I wanted to share some pictures of my progress. I have lost 20 pounds. I'm not sure how much more I want to lose. I started JUDDD in November, lost eight pounds, then fell off the wagon, got back on six weeks ago and have lost the rest since.

Please excuse my ill fitting bra in the first picture and unmade bed in the second.

Didn't intend to share these but hey, why not. :P

sterlinggirl · 04-16-2012, 12:31 PM

Wow. i CAN see the change!

.. by the way.. I would kill to have your before picture at some point in my life!

Beeb · 04-16-2012, 12:33 PM

Yes, I see the changes and they look wonderful!! WTG!

Piccina · 04-16-2012, 12:34 PM

I did/do not have a lot to lose and I'm young, but being skinny growing up and then having two babies I was the heaviest I had ever been in my life, so, it felt like time for a change!

Thank you. <3

sterlinggirl · 04-16-2012, 12:37 PM

Sorry i went in and edited my post lol i meant i CANi CAN see wow wow !!

Kissa · 04-16-2012, 12:38 PM

You look wonderful. Great work.

Hazelsmrf · 04-16-2012, 12:39 PM

OMG you've had two babies?! Wow! You would never, ever, ever be able to tell.

GingerAnn · 04-16-2012, 12:50 PM

I can really tell a difference in your upper thighs and (lack of) love handles. You look great! I'm petite, too.. need to lose 15 lbs to get down to 115.

Showcats · 04-16-2012, 12:55 PM

You look great! Congratulations.

Stitch · 04-16-2012, 12:59 PM

Wow! You look amazing! Are you actually 122 lbs? I ask because I'm 5'2" and even when I was 114 lbs I didn't look nearly that good!

Piccina · 04-16-2012, 01:00 PM

Thank you everyone! Makes me feel good. I have a 4 1/2 year old and a 20 month old.

Oh, and I actually I updated that a bit ago, now I don't remember how... I'm 111 now.

And 5'2".

Stitch · 04-16-2012, 01:13 PM

Wow, well done to you!

sunday · 04-16-2012, 01:39 PM

sophiethecat · 04-16-2012, 03:11 PM

WTG! You've done a marvelous job, Piccina!

Beautiful!

JanetTN · 04-16-2012, 03:39 PM

your knees even lost weight!!! WTG! you look great and are very smart to take care of it when you have 20 to lose instead of 70 to 80 like me.

gotitnow · 04-16-2012, 04:08 PM

Piccina...you look wonderful....OOOOhh to be young again!!!

krow134 · 04-16-2012, 04:39 PM

Lianora Mosswood · 04-16-2012, 04:52 PM

Low Carb Librarian · 04-16-2012, 04:53 PM

ellgee · 04-16-2012, 04:57 PM

I'm pretty positive if I looked like you in EITHER picture, I'd walk around naked all day long. Preferably in a place with lots of mirrors so I could admire myself. LOL!

gotsomeold · 04-17-2012, 03:25 AM

Skinny shapely lady, you look great!

MintQ8 · 04-17-2012, 03:32 AM

Fantastic - gives me some idea of what I may look like at goal (I hope!! LOL!!)

I'm also 5'2", and my goal is 120lbs!! Only 105ish to go!!

Piccina You look great!

northandcold23 · 04-17-2012, 04:28 AM

Your stomach and hips look great! You look wonderful!

KathyL · 04-17-2012, 07:18 AM

Laura! LOL!

You do look fantastic! I wish I had taken the weight off after each child instead of letting it go as I did.

Piccina · 04-17-2012, 07:33 AM

Thank you sooo much everyone. I was feeling discouraged as NO ONE in my real life has even so much as asked if I've lost weight and it's hard when you see yourself everyday! I have stretch marks, too! Only I didn't get them on my stomach, but I got them on my hips, and boobs, and small ones on my thighs... and they're MORE noticable with weight loss, stupid things. I'm unsure if I should lose more. My goal was originally 100 lbs, because I have a small bone structure (I'm talking like 5 inch wrists, haha) and I've been that weight before and thought I looked better, but I'm unsure. WDYT? Again thanks so so so much for the kind words everyone!!

adillenal · 04-17-2012, 08:24 AM

Piccina - I have been dry skin brushing for many years and I had faint stretch marks that disappeared over time with brushing. I use the ttapp method but you can google dry skin brushing and get a lot of info. Just be sure to use a natural bristle brush.

Piccina · 04-17-2012, 09:02 AM

Hmm I've never heard of that and had no idea they could ever go away! Thanks for the info, I will definitely look into it for the little ones especially.

I always thought they were permanent too but I have zero stretch marks now. Mine weren't bad to begin with but I obviously had some. Not sure what it will do for really bad ones.
