Today I reached a 60 lbs loss. started last august and sometimes i feel like this is taking sooo long... but.. i can say the best thing is this...
I am no longer ashamed to have real pictures taken of myself... before my fb was filled with face shots.. now i can say there are atleast 5 pics of me.. that show ME! It feels good.
My body no longer hurts.
And I haven't had a real candy bar since April... (except part of a hersheys for a smore... and i ate maybe half) this is HUGE for me.. i used to eat 2 + snickers a day while at work.. (vending machines are evil)
I've got 42 lbs to go and I am super confident that I will get there...
and eventually I'll have abs...

    You have made amazing progress. Congratulations! I know what you mean about the candy bar thing. For me it's donuts and cookies. Curses on you sugary baked goods! But you look fabulous! Seriously, be proud. Good luck on your continued success!

    This is a big goal of mine... I HATE pictures of myself! I even go as far as to make my kids gather around me to hide what I don't want on film. It's a dream of mine to be able to just get in a pic & not think about the angle & trying to make sure someone is hiding my gut! I'm so ashamed to admit it, but I am scared that my kids won't remember what I looked like after I die because there will be no photos of me!
