New Pictures!
Hello everyone, well I would like to take the credit for how wonderful my profile looks now, but I can't! One of my sweet blond girlfriends came to my whinning and helped me out. BEFORE she did I had pictures the size of your computer screen on there all the way down to the size of a dime!~ I couldn't adjust sizes! (Still can't, but I'm going to get a cheat sheet and learn.)
Anyway, I have never asked anyone to look at my profile cause I haven't been that proud of it, well I am now! At least the pictures. So if you have a minute would you please just take a peek!!
I had a very strange experience this week end, which I mentioned in another post, but in case you missed it I want to tell you again. We went to a Tai Chi retreat at Lake
Anna, which was beautiful. We'd never been there. Well a guy there had this really cool looking Harley and I was ohhhh and ahhhh over it and he offered to take me for a ride. So I said yes! And then he started talking about 'you lean this way on turns, I'll lean the other way', and all of a sudden I got so nervous. So I told him I would take a rain check. Later, Greg asked me why I changed my mind and I told him that I thought I was too fat and would cra**** I think maybe the guy must have been thinking that too since he started talking about leaning and he probably thought I would tip us over!! So when are you ever thin enough to ride on a motorcycle and not worry about making it tip over!!!
As of today I am at 177, and started at 289!! And if you'll look at my profile you can see some real good before pictures!! Greg and I were looking at it last night and Greg said 'I don't even remember you looking like that', which is strange cause it's the way I looked for most of our married life. And I said to him 'I still think of myself as looking like that'. In fact, sometimes when I look in the mirror I just kinda stare cause I think, is that you??

You look beautiful and so does your profile. It's amazing the changes. I know it's hard to see them in yourself, but WOW. I have a hard time realizing it in myself. We took the boys go carting this weekend and I joined in for the first time. At first I was afraid that I wouldn't fit in the car and if I did I wasn't sure I could get back out. Those little cars sit low to the ground! It was a blast! Last year I barely left the house, now that's an improvement!
My hubby says I look great and don't need to lose any more . I know that I do need to lose more, but from a man that doesn't give out compliments, it was nice to hear.
I have an appt with my pcp today, I haven't seen her in months so I'm anxious to see what she has to say. I still need affirmation that I'm on track maybe cause the loss has slowed down so much.
Have a great day

Hi Micha, thanks for the compliments! You know at first I thought, well this seems like asking for a big old pat on the back type of posting, but sometimes it takes someone else's picture to make you look at your own picture (either in print or in the mirror or in your mind) to see your successes.
I can imagine what you're saying about the go carts! Oh my gosh -- that would be scary to fit into - or at least to think that maybe you can't. I guess we just have to try things and be surprised!! I've done that (tried things) in different areas and then thought, hmm I can do it!!
Let me know how the doctor visit goes!
love
