This is one of my fave picture sets of myself. In 2007 I lost over 70 pounds using Phentermine. I didn’t exercise or anything. My only concern was with the number on the scale. My diet was terrible. There were days when the only thing I ate was a bagel. The pills took my appetite. They also caused severe mood swings, my hair started falling out, I was super jittery, and they made my heart race. I had no real muscle on my body and I became skinny fat. _____________________________________ Once I stopped taking the pills, I slowly started to gain weight. While I was pregnant it started to pile on and after my grandmother’s death, I reached my all time high of 261 pounds on my 5’ 4.75” (official height from the doctor 😄) frame. _____________________________________ This summer I developed a healthy relationship with food and learned the benefits of regular exercise. I fell in love with the idea of losing fat, building muscle, and getting stronger. Strength training and cardio are a regular part of my life and I am in the best shape of my life. I am so glad it finally clicked for me and I am seeing results. My lifestyle changed and because of that, I am OK with calling this a transformation.
