[Weight]


Many people do not believe that I lost 30lbs.  There was a weightloss contest at my old work, and somehow I was winning.  After I was done losing, lots of people who didn't see me for a couple months, suddenly thought that I was anorexic.  Believe it or not, I was eating McDonalds every other day.

**POST EDIT*** I guess i need to rephrase.  Somehow i was winning was in regards to the fact that i didn't have that much to lose.  I dropped from a 140 to a 110 in a month due to stress.. and pure stress alone.   Everyone who looks at me can't believe i was bigger as I'm so skinny.


Ready?  Here's some before pictures:







In the middle of it all:






And the after pictures:





And there you have it.  30 lbs.  Gone.  While eating Mcdonalds.

Ta-DA

I should point out it was all completely due to stress.  From the breakup.  And watching my best friend walk away.

And I should also point out, I'm back to a healthy weight now.

Yikes! I can see why friends would be scared for you, that's quite a change! Did you find yourself liking the 30lbs lighter version of you?

Good. You look much better with some of that weight. Why is weight such a big deal? Silly society...

I know about stress weight loss. I just lost 40 pounds in 4 months for the same reason! In my case, it just brought me back to what's healthy for me though. :)

You're super pretty though, in all stages.

The picture in the blue shirt scares me :(

If you lose more than 2 pounds a week, you're losing muscle. Liposuction excluded, your body CANNOT lose fat faster than that.
