Hola chicas!~~~

If you haven't already taken your measurements and "before" pictures, you should consider doing so now!! ❤️🦋

MFP has a tab that suggests which measurements to take and lets you keep track of your stats. I think they suggest you update your measurements once every month or so. 💫

Before pictures might seem really hard and intimidating, but imagine how amazing it will feel to compare pix from November to May!! 🏵️💛

Okay that's my PSA for the day 😆😆

Vamos adelante amigas! 🌈

    That's a great idea!
    My profile pic is my before pic that I took about 2 weeks ago. I would normally NEVER post a pic of me in a swimsuit, but I just wanted to put it out there to acknowledge my weight gain head on. Plus, every time I log on, I see it and it reminds me to keep working towards my goals. Can't wait to have success pics!

    That's great! Whatever helps motivate! 🦋

    My profile pic is still from like 4-5 years ago back when I successfully used MFP to get fit before 😬 I just didn't think of changing it this time around cos I don't have any new pix... Now it inspires me to remember not THAT long ago I could spontaneously take an 8 hour hike up and down a volcano 😆🌈❤️

    Hiking a volcano? It sounds like you live a pretty amazing life!

    I do have pictures up in my "inspiration/yoga room". It's full of ribbons from horse shows, medals from running races and a motivational board with images to inspire me. Unfortunately, I don't go in there often enough!

    If anyone is feeling brave and would like to share your before pics here, you're welcome to do so. This should feel like a safe place for you to use however will be the most helpful to you.

    Actually, I plan to post pics on Monday and then every few weeks. It'll be fun to see the difference between now and May!
