Recently I found an old drivers license and it was the one I got when I was 18 years old. I know for a fact that I didn't update my weight on it cause I had gained a little bit of weight by then. It lists my weight at 180 lbs, which means when I was 16 years old I weighed 180 not 165 as I thought once before. Which means I have already surpassed my goal to get back to the weight I was when I was 16. I only have 11 lbs to go till I'm at 165 and only 36 pounds left till I am at 140. Now I know for sure that I will make it!!! Such an amazing feeling it is to get healthy, eat foods I enjoy and be able to enjoy my life instead of dread looking at my appearance in the mirror! Anything is possible and if you don't believe you can do it, you're wrong! You can do anything you set your mind to!!!
This is where I have come and my progress so far:

A photo taken back in January next to one from several years back. Such a noticeable difference in my face when I began to lose all the weight. I love not having the double, even triple chin anymore.
Feel so much healthier than I ever was when I was a teenager, much more energy now than what I had then. If only I could have figured this all out when I was younger instead of just thinking, "I'm fat, I'll always be fat..." *sigh* What things we just don't realize until we are older.
you look great!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's been lots of hard work. Only 35 lbs left to go and I'll be at my overall goal! :)
