Those are NOT my beers in the background! I do not drink beer. Ack!
This was me last June.
And this is me early September when I decided to start working on exercise and diet after finding out I have diabetes.
This was me several years ago when I was at my highest weight ever!
Yet here I am last week looking totally different. I am down almost 60 pounds now, and down around 80 pounds from my highest weight ever. Can you believe that when I saw this picture I almost didn't recognize my own face? I think I look darn good for being 50! That's my friend Stacy on the right. We were out watching a band and dancing for her 34th birthday!
I really do need to get a full length pic too. Working on that.
As you can see, I changed the hair too. Thanks to the
It's really odd to lose this much weight because I have never been succesful at weight loss before, but then I never really tried. In my mind, I am still that bigger girl. I still think of men looking at me like I'm much bigger. Now instead of being a proud fat chick, I am just chubby. It's weird to me. I still have 60 more pounds to go to reach my goal weight though, but if I don't reach that goal, I will still be thrilled at where I am right now.
The funny thing is that last week I joined a contest where I get a pretty darn good prize if I can lose the largest percentage of body weight. What did I do? I GAINED two pounds! lol I'm not discouraged though. It's part of the journey and last week was a crazy, stressful week. I am back on track this week.
Sorry, but no tablescape this week. I just didn't have the resources to get something around. Should be back next week.
I finally joined Facebook! If anyone wants to be my friend on Facebook, just let me know. Oh, I have NOT joined Farmtown or Yoville or any of the games on Facebook. I figure I already have too many time wasters!

I'm so happy for you! You look at least 20 years younger than you did last year!!! Just live a healthy life and if more weight comes off, fine but do not stress out about it because you look great. I'm glad you like the new hairstyle! ; )

You look beautiful. Congratulations on your weight loss. You must be so proud of your self. Well done.
I was interested to hear about your lovely Bonnie Lane house. I hope and pray that you get to keep it and move back in really soon.
Have you sent Stella to her next destination yet? Looking forward to hearing where she will be popping up next.
Have a lovely weekend.

Mom the boys and I also said you needed to change you horrible 80's hairdo that you've had since Sean was born. And he is now 20. But I still love the new look and I Love You!
What a difference! You look wonderful now. It really shows in your face and you have this wonderful glow in your face too. Congrats on being successful with your weight loss. Are you going to share how you did it? Or did you already do that and I just plum forgot about it or missed it somehow?
Keep up the good work!
