I'm a blog-virgin! Well, WAS a blog-virgin... I'm making my first entry.

While I know how painful it can be to see pics of yourself when you are overweight, I have come to realize what an important tool/motivator they can be. I wish that I had taken more pics of myself at my higher weights, so I could compare them to more recent ones. It is a huge boost to view your accomplishments.

For example:

Pic comparison...

This is me last April, at about 165 pounds.



This is me last Sunday, at 123 pounds...




The top pic is at 165... I wish I had this same kind of pic at 215 pounds! Wow!! That would be awesome.

So, the bottom line - Take some pics, and document your journey! You'll be glad you did.
