So growing up, it has been hard to break those habits and thoughts about food. That is why I think Weight Watchers has been so effective for her. It has helped her (and I) understand how food works with your body, not against it.
So she joined WW about a year ago and has done great!
Here she is at her heaviest (on the left)
And here she is now (tho this pic is a little old, so she might be smaller now!)
I didn't even know our bodies could look like that! I am so incredibly proud of her. She is my inspiration and I know that I can succeed at this because she has.
:)
Oh goodness me!!! It's mental to see the comparison between the two! I need to get some better photos done, there's not really many since I've gotten down. I almost went on a picture hiatus while I was losing the weight, part of me didn't want any one to know what I was up to, in case I failed, and it kept it personal to me, if that makes sense.
ReplyDeleteBut you've got it dead on, I still find I do that, hoard and hide food, which is silly, but habits are hard to break, but knowledge is definitely power on this one! I've still got a small handful of fat clothes left, if you want I can get pics of me in them now, and the photos of me wearing them back in the day. That's where I find it surprises me.
But anyway, slow and steady, don't do it to impress any one, do it for you. It will fall into place :) How've you been getting on?!
I woud love pics like that! I am doing well. I am not having a hard time tracking, and feel like I have more energy. One bad habit that has come back since the last WW go is Diet Cola... I was addicted, and now I feel myself getting back into it. I don't love the fact that it will probably give me cancer, but oh well, it's 0 pts...
ReplyDeleteOther than that, on thursday I weighed myself and I had lost 3 lbs. I am not sure if that was just fluctuation so I am not going to actually weigh myself again until Monday morning. Over all, I think it's going well.
I'll get those going for ya then!
ReplyDeleteI live off diet coke, seriously. And artificial sweetner. Go through buckets of the stuff, for reals.
