So here I go, being all brave and showing all my journey... I so appreciate everyone else who has documented and shared their journey this way and I figure it is my turn. I realize these are not before and afters... but I am feeling good about my progress and hope to show all those lurking around and those needing a kick in the pants... that this WORKS!!
I have been obese my entire life. NOT ANYMORE.... I turned a corner in life and I have done that because of the sucess stories that inspired me to do so...
The reasons I know it works... I FEEL BETTER.
I think I look better, I can move easier, I can breath easier, I can sing again, My skin is getting better,
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY I AM GETTING SMALLER.
Starting at 299 means I have a long journey ahead but I am good with the slow and steady PERMANANT weightloss as opposed to fast and suddent temporary weightloss. I HOPE YOU ARE TOO!!
Sorry the photos are so big and that you can see all my imperfections... YUCK... but I am what I am... IT is what it is!
THANKS!
This is the earliest picture of me... Feb 2006
This one is in May 2006 Likely at my biggest 299lb I think.
This one is July 2007
This one is Christmas 2007 where my face was the biggest ever.
This one I had already started exersizing but was just before I began Atkins March 29 2008 I think I was at 289lbs here.
These are two of me at the beach on April 17 2008, I feel fantastic, I can feel some changes but can't see them yet.
I realized I had no body shot and obviously the way I took the pic I am not at all comfortable taking this pic... but it had to be done...
I am feeling good in this next shot... loving that I am beginning to see subtle differences.
One month later and I have probably reached 35lbs down at this point. I have not kept really good track... but something like that...
I took this last night after a 10km hike and came home thinking I could have done the loop again. I am down now 46lbs in total.
I wish I could do a side by side pic to show the two in the dress so you all can let me know if you see a difference. this will have to do.
First one May 2 2008... the dress was so tight I could hardly sit down in it.
This one July 10 2008, it is still a bit tight in the bust but I can't keep the straps up and its loose everywhere else.
