Before I explain... I want to say that I don't care what anyone thinks, my 80's hair was SPECTACULAR!!! LOL!
In the photo below, the picture on the left was taken in 1989 when I was 22 years old and weighed 122.0 lbs. The picture on the right was taken today. I'm only 1 lb away from 122.0 which will be the same weight I was 22 years ago!!! I know, if you are seeing a #22 theme too... I've already purchased a lottery ticket. HA!
My journey started in January 2010 (edit to add that my starting weight was 157.0 lbs) and I never gave up. My goal was to fit in to my old clothes again... but as you can see, they are terribly out of style. After I reach my goal of 122.0, I'm rewarding myself with a brand new wardrobe!
Never give up! If you stall, just take a little time to regroup and jump right back in. The end result is so rewarding!!! Good luck to everyone and never lose sight of your dreams.
