Yeah, it certainly is a little discouraging. When you see on the scale that you have lost 50 lbs but you still have so long to go. Thats me, and I know that is the same for a lot of people. It's hard to imagine yourself at your goal weight when you have been big for so long. In just a few short months I have done something I never thought was possible. I have lost 50 lbs! I look in the mirror every day and I don't see it. Its only when I put side by side photos next to each other to see the actual difference. 50 down.. 150 or so to go!

    ...and I know that I will have the BeachBody that I am so looking for! It looks like more then 40 lbs to me but, I also know that under the rest of that insulation, I am building muscle because of Chalene!!!

    WE GOT THIS!!! We just have to keep trudging!!! Extra work now means less work later!! :-)

    I can definitely see that you have lost a lot of weight! 50 lbs is an incredible amount and you should be so very proud of yourself. Don't give up. You are an inspiration to me and I'm sure to so many other people. Don't focus on how much you have to lose in total. I hope you have smaller goals set for yourself. You really do look amazing!!! Congratulations! and Keep it up!!!!!

    That is a huge difference! Keep those pictures! It seems like it takes a year to see yourself in the mirror. The old pictures will still look crazy! Even if you feel like you've backtracked some, those pictures can keep your head level. So, store them away so you remember how far you came and don't go back!

    It takes a very brave spirit to see a job that seems impossible and tackle it anyway. You've done just that, though, which is a testament to your strength of character. You got this far by taking it in small pieces and you'll get to the end the same way. Hang in there! I admire your courage!
