Caught by surprise by a not-so-old picture

  • This is probably taking a direction opposite of what you'd expect. Instead of seeing a recent "I'm-so-fat" picture I just saw a picture from this summer (8 months ago) that someone just posted today. When I saw the picture at first I was like "Oh, that's not me..." then noticed the very distinct group T-shirt and went "Wow...that is me." I was about 15-20 pounds lighter at that point and the picture was taken from behind, my face is not visible. My weight was on its way back up at that point but comparatively I look AWESOME. It was also at this time that I met my now-boyfriend, and I feel some embarrassment that that's how he first became interested and here I am now....

    Strange but motivational. I was on track at the beginning of this week then off-track the past two days. The second day on I gained but the past two days of bad eating put me back down (oddly). I am doing fairly well today and hoping to get some exercise in.

    Wish me luck!


  • Obviously, you can do it! We all slip up at times. You know what you have to do, so don't let it phase you too much.

    I'm sure your boyfriend loves you for who you are, not what size you wear.
