So lately I have been feeling a little less than motivated. I don't know what's happened but I have been forcing myself..it didn't feel this hard in the beginning. I thought I'd post a blog to remind myself that even though it's "only" 30 pounds and I've got about 40 more to lose to get to my goal that I have made alot of progress. I can tell a difference.

I knew I needed to make a change when I took these pictures during New Years Eve...no matter what "angle" I was at, I felt disgusted with myself! Oh well, I am working on it now :)

Before:

So far:

It's taken since January to lose 30 pounds..but slow and steady wins the race!!

    I would just like to say that I would KILL to lose 30 pounds...or *ONLY* be 40 away from my goal.

    You are doing GREAT!! If you could travel back in time, and talk to yourself around new years...How much would your past self be proud of what you have accomplished? And how much will your FUTURE self be glad you kept on slogging it through??? Think what you'll look like in 6 month's time--it's really not that long, you know--and you look FANTASTIC now!

    KEEP GOING!
