So, it's been a long time coming. Deciding to post success photo's came after something of a radical realisation earlier today from comments other MFPers left me in the Motivation boards. I'd been upset that after making so many positive changes (especially recently) that I wasn't seeing any movement on the scales.
Through talking to them, I realised that really, all I was working for was a number. I already had the body I wanted, I'd gone down 1-2 dress sizes, I actually enjoy exercise - but I wasn't let any of that count for anything because it wasn't 140lbs on the scale instead of 144lbs.
Realising that made me see, I'm here already. I need to keep eating and exercising right, but stop caring about the damn number. I've already gotten rid of the scales!
And here are my photos:
Highest ever weight (I'm on the left): 165lbs
Now: 144lbs
