I remember when I was a size 10. It was an AWESOME feeling. It was the smallest I had been since before my teenage years. I've heard the saying "Nothing tastes as good and being thin feels", and it's so true. So why, then, have I let myself get to where I am today?:
Weight: 232.8 lbs.
Size: 20W
Wow. My clothing size has doubled. It's horrifying.
There have been numerous weight loss efforts over the last ten years. Some were serious efforts, some - not so much. Today I was looking at pictures from a party I was at over the weekend. I barely recognize myself. It's so weird - even my smile is different than it was ten years ago. I can see that today's self looking back at me is definitely not enjoying having her picture taken. It's sad.
I want to say that today's revelation is going to be the beginning of a serious effort, but I've said it before. So, how about this - here's to the journey. Whether it starts today or someday down the line, there is no doubt that it HAS to start.
