So, I am slowly overcoming my battle with the scales, and starting to see results beyond the sometimes meagre difference the scale tells me. A year ago i was 105kg. Now i am 80. My pants were au size 22 a year ago, now i am a 16 nearing towards a 14. Before i couldn't even run for 30 seconds, now I can 5kms! But most of all, I hated going shopping, I hated the way I looked, i was ashamed of myself and believed i was an embarrassment/failure. Now i wake up everyday so proud of myself for what I have done, and acknowledge that I am strong and smart, and I respect myself more than I ever have! These are my results:

The left side was taken 2 months ago, 6kgs heavier. The second today.

This photo was taken a year ago, with my sisters. I always felt like the fat embarrassment to the family, compared to the rest of my siblings. Not anymore :D

A year ago i resigned myself to the fact that I could never wear or fit into jeans (or pants). No more!
