Self-Shame is a great motivator for me

Just put the picture that turned me around on my Profile. I was totally disgusted from what I saw and was hesitant to put it out there for everyone to see. But I need to own what I did to myself, so I decided to share.

The GOOD news is that since this was taken, I am 30 pounds lighter and feel 100% better. And it only gets better from here!!!!65k20o3fraky.jpg

    Good job! Seeing your dog in the pictures prompts me to say though, that our pets love us unconditionally! So, be good to yourself. Enjoy the journey.

    Great job and congrats! I think this would proabbly work for me as well. Instead of pictures of the body I hope to have I'll put pictures on my wall of the body I hope to never have again!

    Keep it up! =D

    Congratulations on losing 30 pounds! I have pictures that make me cringe. I need to take your perspective and use them as motivation to improve myself.
