ate like crap all weekend. didn't work out. still lost weight lol. but i will get back on track this week and hopefully all will go as "planned". one thing i will say is i FEEL fatter even though i'm losing weight. working out is what gives me my shape and that tight feeling so i guess i have to sacrifice weight for muscle/shape. im willing to do that. i actually look like the smallest person in the photos of my conference in florida. that's an experience i've never had before. i want to get down 20 more lbs and really see what it's like to feel great about myself. i feel good now but i want to feel great so still some work to do! onwards and upwards!

AAaah! I just looked at the picture again.. look at the puppy! Aaaw. See? You're also a dog person! I'm thinking you are a major catch now.

Thank you all for your encouragement and kind words! I still have 80 lbs to go but at least I'm seeing changes. You all inspire me as well and I'm glad we are walking this journey together!

I'm finally seeing a difference in my body! I'm 3 months post-op as of today and I'm down 74 lbs. I'm staring to feel "normal" again and I'm loving it. I took a picture this weekend and was finally able to see some of my progress. We have to Celebrate all along the way!

Man. sometimes you see a before photo and you think to yourself, "how did i ever let it get to that point?" motivates me to get these last 10-20lbs off. #transformationtuesday

I think you look great - you still want some curves!! You don't want to look all skin & bones!

Whores and dbags. Hilarious!! As for the thin beautiful young lady in the pic, keep up the great work. You look just amazing!

i went to target this weekend. picked a medium dress and extra small sweater off the rack. i wasn't looking for xs by the way but all they had was xs or xxl lol. i went to the dressing room and saw myself full length in the mirror and thought holy ****. i think i'm small. am i small? on the daily i feel just like i always felt. like i feel better but still fat. could it be that im not perceived as fat anymore? why is it so important? how do we switch over from "fat mentality" to what's real? to what's actually happening with our bodies right now? am i still viewed as "fat" by society? am i normal now? is a size 8/10 still fat? how will i know when to stop? all the questions you didn't realize would linger so long.....

I am scheduled for surgery in a month ( July 6) so I am weaning off sugars and flours ... Already been off soda for 3 months. Just trying to get my head right so I can do this "right". Although I totally understand.... Every darn commercial has me thinking I want what they advertise. But I resist. In Jesus' name, I resist!!!
