Wow. What a difference. Today I wanted to give up, like I have other times..... but now I know why I have not done so.....when I looked at this photo I cried again, this was the reason I went & did all this..... because I was fat. Because I was FAT. No denial any longer......

This was me in Feb this year (2012) take a look at the fat face...... that was me ALL over. 95kg & a size 22. Unfit & very fat.

This is me TODAY.....no fat face, a size 14 or 12 depending on the clothing brand....running 10km a day & fit as I can get at this point. I workout EVERY SINGLE DAY with no rest, I push hard & scold myself if I dare slip up or don't work out hard enough.

I'm no longer going to want to quit, I'm not going back to that 1st photo.... I'm not going back to anything near that person. I'm a better person than before, no longer shy & reserved. I've done well, I'm proud of myself because I did it for ME.

Now I'm about to kick everyone elses *kitten* into gear. If I can do it..... anyone can.

    I am very proud, so is my husband :) He actually LOOKS at me now. I love it. I used to shy away from any attention, used to hide behind fat clothes. Now I wear skinny jeans, even a sexy short little number yesterday & love it when I get tooted at :)

    Woah. There is a giggly saying "under all this fat I am supermodel" . In your case , just the difference in face...there was really beautifull face hidden under that fat. Super proud of your progress and your post shows it's never worth to give up.

    BTW I should point out that I am 37. I got asked the other day how old I was, when I said how old I was then called a liar. I then had to point out my 19yo son & told them I had him at 18. :) Got to love looking younger :)

    Wow, you really inspire me. I just started here in MFP and working out again. I can't wait to loose the extra 40 pounds and kick our HR manager's *kitten*. She called me fat today when everybody knows that she just lost weight through her addiction to diet pills. heh-heh

    you've made me want to push myself harder - i'm doing it all but too slowly - 7months that must be so satisfying. Keep kicking everyone's butt please. That's the attitude that gets you somewhere as you've shown.

    You should be proud! You've had an amazing journey and done a great job. You are a beautiful woman and I am not surprised you are getting 'tooted' at!!

    Well done, lady!
