I finally uploaded a photo today. I figured it's about time. It's a comparison of me now, and me two years ago, when I probably weighed about 50 pounds more. At my greatest on the scale at the doctor, in January of 2010, I weighed 242.6, but I have a feeling the previous summer I weighed even more. When I was on a family reunion, there was a huge swing that required a harness. I was the only one in the whole family that couldn't fit in the harness to swing. I was devastated. Not sure if I've shared that story here before but it keeps coming back to me. So, the picture on the right is from when we were churning homemade ice cream at the reunion, and the one on the left is a kind of side/rear view of me about a month ago, wearing jeans I haven't fit into in over two years, probably since late 2008/early 2009 really... and I actually put them on by accident! I thought they were a different pair, but when I got them on and realized they were a size 16, I nearly cried! They're still tight!! LOL ... but it feels good to know that the goals are still possible... slow going, but I'm determined. P.S. I have a job offer, and it should be solid this afternoon... I'll keep you posted!
