Then there are days like today. The photo on the left showed up in my news feed on Facebook. I am only 5 months out from sleeve surgery and down 80 lbs. I had dropped 40 on my own over 4 years by just working out and eating better.

HW - 360ish

SW - 323

CW - 242

Feels good. I have about 25 lbs to get to my goal and I know I'll do it as I have always enjoyed working out. The holidays and sweets are a battle for me. I am lighter now than when I graduated high school. This journey is amazing and I know it's not over for me. I'm training to do a sprint triathalon in June. This just there's me for a loop today.

Of course there's a difference! ☺

We are our own worst CRITICS!! You can definitely see a difference!!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

I am nearly 2 months out and 77 lbs down from my highest in July of 404. I still cannot tell the slightest difference at all even though everyone around me can.

Looking good

R4C????

that is our heads messing with us. I joke with my husband that I've always had body dysmorphia at my high weights. I see myself 50lbs thinner in the mirror because i was always so shocked to see myself in photos. I'm glad I had before photos because I'm so dissapointed in how I look in pictures now. but when i compare the two...big difference. Thank goodness for pictures!
