So, today is the 1 year anniversary of a loss in the family. Adding that to being away from my home and my husband deployed and a bunch of other excuses... I have been having a tough time finding motivation to lose the last 10-15lbs. I am posting this in hopes that making myself vulnerable with pictures again will give me that drive to want to lose it.

these are of my rehearsal and wedding 5 years ago...(it wasn't even my highest weight) I think i was around 200ish here (216 highest) I am 5'7

  • Good for you for sticking with it. For what i can see you have come a huge way and look fantastic, i am sure your husband and you are very proud of what you have been able to achieve......those last 10 pounds are always the hardest to lose.

    Given the life of an Service Member wife, I applaud your hard work in your successful weight loss and holding down the home while your husband serves our country. All very big stressors! :flowerforyou:

    You look stunning, congrats!
  • I am a military wife too ( I am assuming the deployed husband thing makes you one as well) and that is a stressful life, fantastic job not letting it keep you from your goals.

    LOL what is funny is I have gotten that a ton, but I was only 18 when I got married :)
  • You are so beautiful! You look great. Good luck on the last little bit! I know personally that's the hardest because I've been there a few times and I'm back there again. LOL. You CAN do it! Feel free to add me as a friend and I'll do my best to motivate ya!:happy:

    You look incredible!!! Please send a Thank You to your husband for his service, it is so greatly appreciated and admired! Just set little goals for yourself so that you can stay motivated. Don't focus on the 10-15lbs.. focus on 1 lb at a time, and you'll be surprised how fast they come off!

    Good luck, and I'm praying for your husband's safety and safe return home!
