Here's to a new me!

Postby chelleA » July 13th, 2006, 10:33 pm

Ok......I'm trying to be brave. :oops: I am adding my BEFORE pictures today. I NEVER want to look like this again. I am starting MF 06/14/06. I think that showing these will hold me accountable for my "rebirth". I will post new ones that will show my progress.

I have found comfort in this website, and all of the words of support. Thanks for all taking this journey with me, holding my hand, and pushing me along! :stroll:

HERE WE GO !!!!!!! :goteam:

Hi Michelle, thanks for being so brave and going ahead and posting your before pictures ! I think you are going to be very happy that you did, because once you start losing the weight, you will love having the "before you" to compare with. And, as you start changing mentally and physically, the "before you" will seem much less like you than it feels now. This picture will just become further proof of the courage and strength you are gaining with each step through your new life. :).

You are beautiful, and it will be so much fun to experience your successes with you. Welcome to the program and to this forum.

Hi There,
Don't worry those pesky pounds won't be around you for long :mrgreen:
I can hardly wait to see your pictures as you progress down the weight loss journey. You'll do great. It takes courage to post pictures we don't care for toooo much. You'll love your new pictures to come!!

Thanks SO much for all of the words of encouragement! I did very well on my first day, and looking forward to a very successful today.

Supermom........I agree.......I don't look very happy! :? Two reasons.....I hate having my picture made, and I was trying to stand up straight without crutches. I had knee surgery on the 7th. ;) But I'm progressing slowly. I'm SURE that my weightloss will help with the knees. The dr told me that for every pound you weigh, there is 7 pounds of pressure on your knees! A helpful hint for all of us on this journey!

Thanks again for all of your replies......it helps to know that someone cares!
