Hubs, yes I'm a little crazy. But I think it's like what VeggyMom said - scales no longer have the power to frighten me. I know I'm loosing weight. I can feel it in my clothes, and in my energy level. I'm exercising everyday, so I know, or at least hope, that I'm increasing my lean body mass. But I sure do want to change my ticker!
I was going through a box of old pictures last night. I think I may have been at my biggest about 3 years ago. I've always been big, but the person staring out in that picture was a total stranger to me. For some reason, I never pictured myself as big as my pictures. I saw another picture taken around 1997 of me in a shirt I still have. I dug it out of my closet and tried it on. It fits me about the same as it did then, maybe a little bit better. I still have a long way to go, but I'm getting there.
