In my quest to keep up with my "Moment of Truth" friends, I have posted a few workout pics. There are no flexed muscles (I'm not sure they would pop if I flexed anyway!) and no butt shot! Weak, I know.:p These have become my "before" pictures. Body for Life works - IF you don't modify it. I finally lost a couple of pounds and figured if I cut out a bunch of calories I would lose more lbs. quicker in my quest to look good in that bikini next week in Mexico. WRONG! I actually started eating a lot less and was always hungry and GAINED a couple of pounds (the old body starvation thing is true!). I should have stayed on BFL b/c I already know it works like a charm. Oh well. I'm back on track and will continue when I get back from Mexico.

Also, I've found that at 43 years old it's hard to get rid of those love handles that I never even had before this past year! Boo hoo.

You look great Susan. If you have "some work to be done", then I'm needing a major overhall. x( :p ;-)

Keep up the good work.
 
Susan, you look beautiful! I kept thinking that there must be some mistake. These can't possibly be your BEFORE pictures. What love handles? Put on your bikini with confidence and have a great time on your vacation. You look fabulous!

OK, this should make you happy: My BF walked by while I was looking at your workout pics and asked, "Is that Cathe? It looks like her."

You look FANTASTIC Susan! I can't believe you were ever even worried about looking good in a bikini for your upcoming vacation!!!!
 
SUSAN YOU LOOK TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTERRIFIC!!!!!!!!!! I guess that you aren't brave enough for a butt shot, huh? :p And I don't see any love handles, girlie! I think you are so crazy!

You have the best before pictures I have ever seen!!!! :7

Thanks to you all for such wonderful comments. I'm VERY self-conscious about my body and I always get freaked out this time of year when I'll be half naked around our friends. The girls are 10 years younger than I am! But they're all very sweet.

I should have mentioned that I'm getting a spray tan on Monday (I'm pretty white, I know). Usually I do the tanning booth thing before Mexico, but I think I might finally be getting wiser. I'll use enough SPF to be protected in Mexico but not so much that I won't get a little color. I do enough damage to my skin in the summers with cycling and gardening that I figured I'd give it a break in the winter! My doctor will be so pleased that I'm taking her advice a bit. :)
