Post Pics!!!

Hi BAF Family,

I had really been beating myself up for not having reached my goal after almost 4.5 years. I had lost somewhere between 75-80lbs during my first year out. *** Warning to Newbies- Don't be a knuckle head like me....follow your program. *** When my back slide got into full swing, I started to gain weight back.  I was really ashamed and depressed about it. Well since my birthday in February, I have really been making a concerted effort to stay on track. I think the most important thing that I have been doing for myself is working out.  I try to get in 4-5 days of cardio a week. I am also logging in all my food to make sure I stay on track. I have lost nearly 25lbs since February and feel well on my way to a reachable goal.  This past weekend I was in  NYC at a conference.  I got so many compliments from people who had not seen me in a while....comments about my bone structure!!! LOL! Imagine that I guess it was hard to tell I had bones before.   I finally feel like I can do this thing...I want to beat the hell out of the battle of the bulge. I thanked God today for given me another chance for an obesity free lifestyle. I thank God for you all. You have helped me more than you know. I just had to post pics to give myself a pat on the back.   I also need to say that I am 227lbs and proud of it. No longer will I be ashamed of my accomplishment. I figure if I lose another 50 pounds..I can see what I need to go from there. Thanks all.

Life is not about making it through the storm....but learning how to dance in the rain.

Make it happen. If you dont, no one else will.

Wish you well.
