My Weightloss Journey, then End of the Competition

By -
Well the end of the competition is upon us and the beginning of me continuing without the competition begins.  It's been a long road  the journey began May 7, 2011.
I changed my eating habits and started walking.  This is how I looked when I began.

This is where I walked sometimes.



Here's a few things I ate:

 


So that's been my plan all along and I've been taking it one day at a time.  I had so much wonderful support from everyone that it kept me going through high and lows and I am very very proud of what I managed to do.  Ready for the BEFORE/AFTER pictures???  Here they are!



It's pretty unreal!  I've lost 32.8 lbs!  That's a percentage of  12. 48% loss!!!
I plan to contiue to lose and keep it off.  Thanks all so much for your encouragement and support!!!

Love,

Leanne

Deena said it so well! You DO look FABULOUS, Leanne! I am so happy...no...thrilled for you!!! I agree with all the ladies here in saying you are an inspiration and I consider myself so lucky to be among your friends. You are ringing in the new year with a wonderful perspective and a happy attitude for the coming year and that is encouraging! Let's rock this year! I hope to eat healthier also and I definitely need to exercise more. You've sparked my interest to take up outdoor walking with your beautiful picture. :-)

Thank you so much for sharing your journey my friend! Happy New Year! I've got one more hour to go....

I'm so proud of you! You really are an inspiration. Even though the competition is done, we still have our group and I bet most of us are needing to get back on the old wagon. I'll be right there with you. Thank you for sharing your success!

Congrats! I'm down about 10%, but didn't make my goal of under 200 lbs. because of a new sedentary job and family issues. BUT, we're going to make it this year and I know you will too! Keep up the inspiring work and please continue to share your journey!

Halloween Bash!!!!!! LAST DAY!!!!!!!!!!

So this is our last day to party :(  It's too bad because it's been such a wonderful time!  I've loved having each and every one of you here celebrating All Hallows Eve! Our final destination is................ Waverly Hills Sanatorium, located in Louisville, Kentucky, opened in 1910 as a two-story hospital to accommodate 40 to 50 tuberculosis patients. It has since come to be considered one of the most haunted buildings in the Eastern United States. In the early 20th century, Jefferson County was severely stricken with an outbreak of tuberculosis. The original Waverly Hills building was soon home to over 140 patients. A larger hospital was needed for the overwhelming number of patients coming in, so construction of a five-story building that could hold more than 400 patients began in March 1924. The most common experience of visitors seems to be "moving shadows" or "shadow people". These are shadows that appear to have some substance - able to "

Welcome Back Everyone! Today we will be exploring the wondrous Town of Halloween. Halloween Town is my children's favourite Halloween Movie.  I thought it might be fun to put a little spin on this make-believe town. During the day Halloween Town looks like a lovely place to visit and play.  But!  At Night it turns into a spooky and scary place.  We are going to do like most Ghost Hunters and explore this town.  Let's see what do we need....   OK Everyone grab a piece of equipment and let's start exploring! To the right we have a graveyard, who wants to explore there?  Be sure to bring your camera and recorder to try and catch some EVPs.  You never know what ghostly voices might come about.  Down the road a little i another Haunted house, be sure to stay away from the windows, they are seriously creepy. Don't worry Ladies!  We have some wonderful men in Uniform or Halloween Costumes who will stick around to protect us!     Be careful!  You never
