PICTURE: Struggling to Find My Own Inspiration

I started my weight loss journey long ago. To be honest, I do not think there has ever been conscious time in my life that I have NOT been on a "weight loss journey". I have been finding it difficult to stay consistent. So, today I decided I would compare 3 photos of myself. After looking at them, I am starting to regain some confidence. I told myself I would never share pictures like this-- but here I am. Hoping that I will become more motivated. The pics are bad quality.

Thank you! It is appreciated. I need to continue to celebrate the successes, rather than the harp on the bad.0 -

Don't sell yourself short and lose ground. You are doing a great job! And by the way, if you are going to keep the weight off, you will always be on a weight loss journey. This is for life. You can either keep it off, or put it back on. You are looking fantastic!!0

Definitely gaining some serious ground! Keep on keeping on, you're getting there!0

Thank you to everyone! This is exactly what I needed to feel inspired again. Just went to gym and kicked some major butt! I just kept reminding myself of the picture in the white shirt and how far I have come. Today I have learned that being my own motivation is key! And that having wonderful people, who are in similar situations cheer me on is essential! Thanks again!0
