(Down 26lbs from 2nd picture)

June 24, 2010

Down 39lbs :)

I am super duper hard on myself and can't seem to give myself credit for what I have accomplished. Since the last picture I am down a total of 45lbs but I only see how far I have to go instead of how far I have come? Funny how I can beat myself up at any weight. So instead of getting frustrated with summer and the fact that every other day I am faced with temptations. I have decided to continue on and not let a few fun days that include a gain here and there set me off track. In fact looking back at my weekly weigh in's I have only had 2 gain weeks all summer. August is getting crazy and I fear old habits will return, I guess I just have to push through and make wise decisions. And once in a while I have to stop myself and look at the changes I have already made. It's more obvious when I look at the pictures I posted then when I look in the mirror. And maybe I'll try a little harder to be nicer to myself.
