But here it is. The absolute worst picture of me ever taken. I blame the sweatshirt, and the angle, and I'm laughing.... And I've had several people tell me I don't look this bad in real life. But pictures can't lie right. So here's my motivation. I am 225ish in this picture. That is what I weighed when I delivered Olivia!
my sweet friend! I am in your same boat. I Weigh the same i did when I was 9 months pregnant with Hanna. It makes me sick to think about it. a couple weeks ago i stumbled upon an app that i could download on my Palm Pixi cell phone (through sprint) and its the weight watchers point calculator. (the old points, i guess they just changed their points this year, but i say people lost TONS of weight with the old system, so im sticking with that.. plus they didnt have an app for the new system) I have been using the point system for about a week and a half now and am down 3 pounds, and i feel great, and it has been a really great experience so far. I also started a blog ( i LOVE reading your blog by the way) but its private to only me right now.. so its mostly just a personal journal (to be honest i think in my crazy head that some day when i am a size 6 (hopeful thinking!) and someone asks me how i lost the weight, then i will publish my blog so people can read it if they want) I love being able to write down my feelings. you inspired me to write it all down. anyway.. i want you to know that you are still loved even if you are over weight. i wish someone would have said that to me forever ago, and so im saying it to you and truly meaning it. im not telling you about my new weight loss life change with the intention of saying you should try it too,( you can if you want) im telling you this because it feels good to share with someone that is feeling exactly the way i am. You are amazing! You are beautiful, you are human! :)
