I decided back in February 2012 I was going to make changes. Changes for ME. We had plans to take son on a trip of his choice for a high school graduation gift. Plus I didn't want to be hiding behind the camera at graduation. But standing proud next to him. I knew I had to feel better about myself.

So I set out to make changes. I started out over 180 pounds. I walked. I logged in here. I stopped drinking soda. I was ready for making me feel better about me. I gave myself a goal of 50 lbs. by the last week of May 2013. Over an year. I was sure this was possible.

Though I hit close to the weight goal didn't quite make it .. but I am still VERY HAPPY with results. I did gain a little while on the graduation trip, and I have been slow at getting back on the healthy choices since returning. I am still very happy. So here is a small peek at that journey.

Plus you know what? I didn't hide behind any camera's. Not at graduation. Not on vacation. :heart:
