Before and After pics - SO SCARY!!!

Well, I have been on the same diet and exercise program for 3 months now. I have really been struggling with getting myself to do this, but I am just going to. BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES!!!! I feel like I still have quite a ways to go, but I am proud of how far I have come in such a short period of time. I am so embarrassed about where I was, but I want to show you that if I can do it, anyone can do it. I am no longer embarrassed to go swimming. I love shopping because everything fits and I even where a lot of size SMALL tops. There have been a few days that are hard. Times when we are at parties or family get togethers and there is great food and I have to stick to my boring meals. But, looking at my pictures, it is so worth it!! My cruise is in 9 days and I feel ready!! I want to be in a swimsuit the majority of the time. I actually bought shorts the other day. I havent worn shorts since probably middle school!! AND, I actually LIKE how they look on me! I promise you, if I can do it, you can too!! The first couple weeks are always the hardest. You have times that you feel like just quitting. I had a few struggles in my life happen during this that made me want to turn to food for comfort, but I didnt. I no longer have that urge. I feel better all the time. I have more energy, I am happier. I LOVE my life!! Anyway, enough rambling. Here are my pics from day 1, and today!! Hopefully the next time I post pics will be shortly before my competition and I will REALLY blow you all away!
If You ever need some extra motivation, let me know! I have TONS of inspiring quotes and pictures and a mind set now that I can do anything!!

  1. Haha... I'm thinking "before and after" as in photo editing (seems I always have photography on the brain). But since I'm here, let me just congratulate you. Way to go! :)
