Just so you all know, I HATE having my picture taken! I have ALWAYS hated having my picture taken since I was married at 18! Now here I am at 45 and for the first time in 27 years I asked to have my picture taken. Last week was our family vacation. A cruise out of Baltimore. I have lost 70 pounds, my husband is hot as heck and my son is 12 years old. I figured, 'This is it'. If I dont do family pictures now, when will I? So I had the shots taken and for the first time since I can remember, I liked myself in the pics. I mean I actually LIKED the pictures...this is worth every cookie I said no to at work, every celery snack, every minute on the elliptical!
