NSV that brought me to tears

I like to update my friends and family on facebook. I hadn't been posting for a while due to the fact that, well, I've felt like crap for the last few weeks. So today, I broke out the tape, measured myself, and had the hubby take some pictures for me. My inches didn't change much, but as I started to go through the pictures, I cried. I've never been a person that loves taking pics. I've always found something wrong with how I looked, whether it was my smile, my lazy eye, my rolls hanging out over my pants, whatever. Today, I found NOTHING wrong with any of my pictures. This is the first time in my life that I can look at my pictures and have NO complaints or retakes.

I am happy! kiss

Your inches didn't change much? Your measuring tape must be jacked, because your pictures say different. Beautiful.

Lol Thanks everyone! My inches hadn't changed much since my last "tape test". I did that about a month ago. I did lose 2 inches in each arm, which is definitely something to note. As far as my waist and stuff, I'd pretty much been at a standstill for the month. I'm ok with that, though. It's not a race. :)
