So...I started working for this company on July 1st of this year, and on September 6, we had a company picnic...much to my chagrin, they did manage to get me in a photo, and caught me in the background of several others as I tried to hide from the camera lens...of course, the photos were posted on the company share drive for all to see...W-O-W, what an eye opener!!! Like some of you, it doesn't really hit me (good or bad) until I see photos.
After years of failure and excuses, I decided right then and there that now was the time to get serious...a week later, I joined MFP and began my journey...

17.3 lbs down and 4.4% body fat lost, here I am today, celebrating my one month anniversary. :-) SOOOOO many of you have been motivational and inspirational - and I continue to read and research and share in all of your successes and challenges!!! Thanks to you all for helping me along the way...a long way to go, but every baby step counts and I couldn't have come this far without you all!!!

WOW Amazing transformation and weight loss in only one month!! Great job!! Keep up the good work!! I can see a big difference in your face! You should be proud of yourself!!! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:0

@dbanks80 Oh, I totally get that!!! I just thought, ya know, it's INCREDIBLY motivating to see/read about all those people who have dropped huge amounts of weight...but for folks just starting out, they need to know that changes can be made right from the get go!!!
It's funny, because I feel the difference; for instance, today I am wearing a dress that I have owned for months and never put on because it was just too clingy to all the bumps and bulges!!! But I really don't "see" it until I see it in photos, ya know?
BTW, sent you a friend request. :-)0
