Hey ladies and gents.
I have been doing this eating right and excursive thing for 8 months now and have come a long way. One thing I wish I had was before pics of myself from when i started this journey.
If ur new to this or not, you know how frustrating it can be when the scale stays the same or when you have been doing everything right and the scale says it is not working. well, it is a liar and a thief!
I just took my first set of pics and can't wait to compare it to another set in a few months. They are completely unflattering and I hate them but they are necessary. I can visualize my problem areas and the ones that I have really come a long way with. My friend has some too and it is amazing to see the transformation she has made. So when u step on that scale and its a bad day, take those pics out and mentally rejump your motivational batteries to high voltage.
If you have before and after pics I think it would be lovely to share! if i can figure out how, ill get some up too lol.
Yay It's Friday--
