My Motivation-[pictures]

Sometimes motivation is hard to come by. Some days you wake up, look at yourself in the mirror and wonder if it's worth it. I'm here to tell you that if you are exercising, and eating healthier then YES IT IS WORTH IT!
I keep telling my friends that if you are going to start this journey you need to have a before picture and during pictures because you see yourself more than anyone else and it's hard to see those slow changes. I've lost over 50lbs and I still see the old me when I look in the mirror. I've lost over 40"s total all over my body - 8 1/2 Inches on my waist alone. But I still cant see it in my reflection. Taking the progress photos and comparing them side by side will give you the motivation you need to carry on. No one else can give you the motivation you have to be your own motivation. Others can inspire you and light a fire but you are the one ultimately that will be the motivating force behind this change.
I wish you all the best on your journey - you are worth this effort !!!
As always feel free to add me if you'd like!

Congratulations on your progress! I wish I'd taken proper full-body before pictures (or at least measurements) but now I'm down 35ish pounds (not that I'm complaining lol). Your post reminded me that I should just take pictures now because in another 35 pounds I'll wish I had them too0
