I checked the scale again, and I'm still 350, so it wasn't a fluke. yay ( Read more... )

I wonder if I will ever look at a picture and a mirror at the same time and see the same thing. It is really strange how that works. Don't get too down on yourself. The important thing is that you are doing something to improve yourself, but the strength to do that (at least in my opinion) is best found in positive feelings rather then negative. Put the pictures away and don't look at them again until you have lost that 50 pounds and then you will love looking at the changes!

Looking a photos already has been interesting for me as well. Congrats on your weight loss so far.

Dumb question, but... what's WATP?

I have a reverse situation with photographs. Looking at myself five, six years ago is hard. I know I was a pre-teen at the time, but it's still difficult to accept that I'm not as thin and athletic as I was at the time. It's something I will never be able to go back to (but I'm not sure if I even want to, in the end). I think... if you can feel the same way when you've lost those 50 pounds, it will prove you've succeeded. Tell yourself that you will never look like that again. And feel good about it. That's what I want to do now. It's also about accepting who you are, and remembering that you're much more than those numbers on the scale.

Walk Away The Pounds. It's an exercise program on videocassette and DVD.

I am still shocked by the pictures of me when I was a teenager. I was so small then, and I thought I was huge. I had such a distorted body image then. I wish I could go back and enjoy that time.
