NSV--pictures/videos :-)

Last night I got to perform at the fair with the country band I sing with at church. I had a great time, but the best part was looking at the pictures and videos that were taken of our performance. (One of those pics is my profile pic.)

I started with MFP on January 1st and have lost 50 pounds. Looking at these pictures and videos, I realized that for the first time in a lonnnnnnng time, I did not feel sick when looking at these images of myself. I felt like I actually looked like a normal person. I still have 35 pounds to go, but I am so proud of how far I have come. And it feels really good to be proud of myself. :blushing:

I totally agree with you on this. I am the same way. I used to hate seeing pictures of myself. But now most of them are not too bad. I also have lost 50 to 52 lbs. since January of this year and still have about 30 or more to go.
