4 Month Progress!!! With Pics!!!
So, I know that I have been losing since surgery, but every time I looked in the mirror I simply did not see it! I knew my clothes were getting way to big for me, my scale was showing me weight loss, but my head just couldn't see a smaller me in the mirror! Well we have been taking a monthly picture of me and I have been emailing them to my daughter and saving them to a folder with the promise not to look and compare. Well on my 4 month surgiversary my daughter surprised me with the below picture...I have to say that I NOW for sure see a difference, so much so that I cried when I saw the before me and the now me in progress!! My family said this pic was to show me how much I have changed and how they are proud of me, well you can probably read the caption that was put on the picture! I never want to look like the before picture again!! My family bless their hearts said until they saw the before picture compared to my now picture they didn't even realize how big I was they just saw me as the Mom and wife they loved!!! I am so blessed to have them in my life. I am thankful for the 30 years I have had with my hubby so far and for our great children who have grown into the most amazing adults. Surgery has given me new life and I hope to now have extended my life by being healthier!!!
It will hurt. It will take time. It will require dedication. It will require willpower. It requires sacrifice. There will be temptation. But, I promise you, when you reach your goal, it's WORTH IT! (Author Unknown). I feel this sums up my ongoing journey to a healthier me!
