When I'm this heavy, I hate having my picture taken. I'm always so surprised I am so fat when I see myself in pictures (it's that reverse-body-dismorphic-syndrome). I appear way fatter than I think I am in photos. I recently had my driver's license renewed and had to take a new mug-shot. Eewww! I hate the photo; I seemed to have grown three chins! Why couldn't I have renewed my license when I was 75 pounds thinner, just a year ago? That would have been a much better picture! Anyhoo, when I see myself in recent photos, it really motivates me to lose weight (it also gets me a bit depressed, though). Maybe I need to post pics of myself around the house as motivation to keep me going.
I've been pretty good lately, still journaling my food. I'm still down 3.5 pounds! Yeah! My mom made cupcakes yesterday...must resist...must resist the cupcakes... It has been a struggle to eat healthy with a mom that keeps pumping crap into the house! I can't blame her entirely, though. I buy a lot of the junk, too. Another goal I guess! Eat less junk food!

tell your mom that if she needs to bake, she should find some dessert recipes at WW.com. that's kind of mean of her to keep baking yummy (and BAD) stuff just as you're really trying to get back into the effort!
Oh my gosh....totally with you on this post. The photos always seem to be such a shock to my eyes...
I was in my brother's wedding last year and I remember thinking how pretty I felt. I had a beautiful blue dress on, had my hair and makeup done, and I felt just gorgeous. Until.....I saw the pictures my husband took. Oh my gosh-I looked like a gigantic blueberry! It was quite the sobering moment.
I feel the same way. I wish I could find pictures of a thinner me to motivate me, but it seems as though that thinner me never existed. :/
