S/C/G: 190/170/130

Height: 5"8

Default Someone noticed! Someone noticed!

That's huge. That's behemoth-huge. No, I might not be 5 lbs away from my goal like some of you lucky ladies, and no, I haven't quite been as faithful to my lifestyle change as one probably should be in order to call it a lifestyle change. But apparently, I'm doing enough and someone noticed. And even better than that?

My Mum noticed. She didn't even try to knock me for it, either. For a woman who physically cringes at the idea of weight loss and has, on more than one occasion, called me vain and silly for wanting to be thin, to go out of her way to give me a compliment? Oh, that's just awesome.

AH. So happy. =D I'm motivated like crazy, guys.

I know we're different heights but there is some amount of difference between the 190s and 170s! I got my first "wow transformation" comment from someone who hadnt seen me in a year it was great.

Inspiration, all of you! Day 4! I read posts everyday, sometimes several. I think they are my life line to believing if I just keep at it, the weight will come off. I have to stop thinking about the next weekend, the next what ever and just do today. Thanks for the inspiration.
