The 'now' picture of me! The "before" picture take about 1 yr. ago
Hi. I have been doing my weight loss journey for about a year now. After the first six months, I had some toxic people in my life and stalled out on losing but thankfully, I maintained what I had lost. I've continued on and decided to start this blog. Why? As a way to help others since I've been talking about losing weight and the ways I've achieved what I've done so far to a lot of people lately. I'd like to help others while but at the same time be held accountable for losing more. I have a goal weight I'd like to reach and if nobody is keeping track besides me... well, I can reach that goal weight in twenty years and I'll be the only person to know. So I'm on the internet!
So how much have I lost already? Well, I claim 40 lbs but I weighed more than I would've ever admited to in the beginning. It's more like 50 or so. I'll share a 'before' and a 'now' picture that my daughter took about 2 weeks ago.
Those jeans in the 'now' picture are some that I bought about 2 years ago and didn't fit into until the day the picture was taken. I had gone through my dresser several times after buying those jeans and each time, I thought about throwing them away. I never could bring myself to actually do it. I decided to try those jeans and wow, what a feeling that was! I had to have new pics taken. So here they are.
Anyway, I'm going to post this and go for a swim. I've already done a cardio workout today along with a standup ab workout but it's hot (almost 90) and I want to swim.
Talk to you soon,
Wendy
