4 pounds

When this picture was taken it was May 1994. I weighed 119lbs. And I was estatic!! This was taken on my honeymoon - and I, like many brides, had trained hard and starved myself to be certain that I was in the "teens" again when I got married.

I'm not proud to say I was taking ephedra for energy. I'd stay up half the night partying and eat popcorn the next day - to keep my total calories "in check".

I wore a size 6 jeans. Pretty sure about that - may have been a 4. But I know the weight because I would check everyday to be certain I did NOT cross 120. I thought I looked GREAT!! The best EVER!!!

This morning I got on the scale. I weigh 123.6 pounds - after breakfast. My a.m. meal was 4oz. of chicken, and a HUGE salad - with a 24oz. tumber of water that was refilled and empitied twice.

The pants I have on are right now are a comfortable size 1. I eat more than I did then, I am healthier than I was then, I am 1000 times fitter than I was then.

I look at this picture and think - I had no idea what I am capable of.
