I did, however, find this raunch picture of my from September of 2009, and when I saw this I practically died because I just can't believe how much weight my face has carried over the years, and how completely anxious I am to BE RID OF IT!! Check it ...

Can you believe that??? GROSS! This is the one I took yesterday to capture my hair disaster (which is worse the 2nd day, BTW) ... I'm using a wide angle lens, which adds weight to your face when your this close, and I'm leaning inwards. The difference is just ... WHOA (in my best Keanu Reeves voice LOL)

I realize a difference, but I went through surgery to realize MORE of a difference, know what I mean? So I need to get my mental state back in the right place, get my goals and discipline in order, and put the metal back to the pedal. In other words, I need to get my shit together, and try to figure out just exactly what I need to do to lose the rest of this weight, already.
I want to hear about YOU Has been girls!! What's going on? What are your measurements? What's more difficult for you, than other things? What's easier? Are you happy with the changes you're making?? SPILL!!

ReplyDeleteI haven't lost any weight but I've lost 2 inches on my tummy!
HOLY HELL that is SOOOOO drastic!!! BTW i just sent my images :) Im so happy to be back
ReplyDeleteThanks Sonja :) No worries girl, inches make all the difference!!
ReplyDeleteMeg, I know right?! I saw that pic and was like EWWW I was gross :( We're so happy to have you!! I will post them today, I promise!
Mine will be sent this evening...I promise. I was on a 48 hour shift this weekend so I just got home and want to shower. Then I'll measure, photograph and send. I think you look fab girl...however, being the honest friend that I know you love so dearly..I must agree, the hair is a little dramatic..I see what you meant now. BUT we still love you and would deff be seen in public with you!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what my measurements are but I'm back up to 280. I've been really discouraged lately, so I'm trying to be more optimistic but I just feel like I'm failing. UGH. That is all I have to say right now since I just want to sit down and cry. Will post measurements when I get home and I will try to feel a little less craptastic.
ReplyDeleteJen, it's easy to feel that way, especially if you aren't seeing the results you want. I know for me, it was being introduced to a new website, http://chefdave.org that got me going again. All his meals are bariatric approved, and sound SOOO yummy!
ReplyDeleteGive it a try, and just remember ... In the end, it's always worth it ;)
Okay........finally feeling a little bit better. Here are my measurements-
ReplyDeleteNeck: 15
Upper arm: 15 1/2
Bust: 47
Waist: 43
Hips: 54 1/2
I don't think I'm losing...I'm shifting. :/ Neck is the same, upper arm is the same, bust is TWO inches less, waist is one inch MORE and hips are 1/2 inch less. Okey dokey...I'll just hit the gym more and see what happens!
