Love and Success (in progress)

Just about an hour ago, I was trying to get to sleep. Somehow, lately I just am not sleepy anytime before midnight and it doesn't help that my shoulder is currently bothering me (again! sigh!). Anyway, I looked over to my left and I see my fiance just sleeping. Suddenly I remembered a really sweet couple moment we had not too long ago. He was showing me pictures from his cell phone which dated from very recently to quite a long time ago (even up to the earlier points of our relationships). We would stumble upon pictures of the "old" (fatter) me, and before I could say anything, he would say, "so beautiful" each time.

I have never been self conscious (at least not in front of him) very earlier on in the relationship but every now and then I'd ask how he'd fall in love with such a big person. He held my hands and told me that he fell for who I am within. Of course, in my attempts to not cry at that point, I let out a laugh-snort. Lol. Oh wells.

He has always been so supportive of everything I do, and especially my weight loss journey. In fact, I don't set any deadline for my losses because he sincerely sees me as beautiful. He did say that he loves how I am much happier now in my own skin

These pictures were taken a year or so before I embarked on my weight loss journey. Read about what pushed me to begin this awesome journey here ---> http://mfpmiadhail.blogspot.ca/2012/11/how-it-all-began-and-my-progress-since.html

These are some recent pictures (taken sometime early June 2013) -- and I have since lost more since then!! :)

I am so in love with him, and I hope as you read this, you take a mini break and hug/kiss/smooch your greatest supporter right now

I am doing this weight loss for myself, but boy is the journey a lot sweeter with such a dedicated supporter. My tummy's filled with butterflies right now and I can't stop smiling.

And speaking of supporters, I would like to thank every single one of my dear MFP friends who have been with me from the beginning, the middle, and recently, for all your support, each of you are my motivation and I am so grateful for all of you :)

I still have quite a ways more to go and I can't wait to move on to July!!! hehe

P.S. HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!

xoxo

    That is so very sweet and I feel the same way about my boyfriend, he is so supportive and met me at my heaviest which was over 200 lbs and has helped keep me motivated to continue to lose the weight. He is concern that I am not only on high blood pressure medicine but was at one point border line diabetic...fortunately I am losing weight and feeling really good....take care and thanks for the success story:)
