A few years ago (before kids) I "did" Michael Thurmond's Six Week Body Makeover. It did not take six weeks, it took a couple years. But at the end I was jogging 8 miles per day. I lost over 100 pounds. I wore a six 6. And I had absolutely no waist (as seen below). When Reed was sealed to us in 2004, I weighed 155 pounds. That lasted about 2 days!. Focus shifted and in July of 2008 I was at my highest weight ever.

With this weight loss I can see a many differences (besides the rate of loss). One of the glaring differences is this time I have a waist. With PCOS which is related to insulin levels and distantly related to diabetes, I could not trim my waistline. Growing up I don't remember having a waist either. But after surgery, with this weight loss, I know the hormones are different. I actually have a waist! So I know I will look even HOTTER than my first temporary weight loss. AND this one is here to stay!!!!
