edited September 21 in Success Stories
I hit, what I consider, a milestone of sorts. I gave my bf my camera and told him to go nuts on my birthday and uploaded every picture he took, to facebook. It's the first time that I've felt confident enough in who I am, to not care how I look in photos. Those who will be looking at the pictures know and love me, and don't care what I look like. Hell they already know anyway! I realized that I am the only one judging my appearance and analyzing every flaw.......and I'm done!!! I am more than a number on a scale or a pants size. I'm no longer going to judge myself on appearance and will only strive to live a healthy life.

My goal is to be around 150 though to be out of the 'overweight' category I'd have to be under 140! I think I'd like to keep my curves though. :wink:

    You look fabulous. Great job!
  • You Look awesome!!! I am bouncing around the 27 pounds lost mark and am trying to enjoy this and not be focused on the last ten pounds! Seeing your pictures reminds me that i have accomplished so much and I should enjoy it!!! I remember so badly wanting to be in the 140s as I was stuck in the 150s for a long long time. Now its insane to think that I can actually be in the 130s in less than five pounds (which for me is out of the overweight category). I love your idea to accept all the compliments and celebrate. I found I was overtraining and obsessing with my diet and then being depressed about no more progress but even if I stay here for a while I feel great and its about health not just a number!!! I shoud see if I can find some pictures and then take some now :)

    Lookin' GOOOOOD!!!! I agree...there's nothing wrong with a few great curves! You'll have to see how you look and feel as you continue to go down and adjust your goal when you get closer! :happy:
  • You look awesome!!! You look tall and I think you look great at your current weight! I've lost 30 pounds after my second pregnancy and i am hoping to lose 10 more lbs. Great inspiration!

    I just found some old measurements of mine!! Along with the last 25lbs, I've lost 3in in my waist and 2.5in in my hips! Wow!!!

    (Luckily I haven't lost any in my boobs yet...thank goodness! I've got just enough :laugh: )
