My latest wow moment!
My boss usually take us out for lunches for birthdays, staff appreciations as the like. Well...we have a ritual that we will take a picture to commemorate the occasion. In the past, no matter what position I held in the picture...its has always been obvious that I was the largest one in the office. Honestly...this has been the best way for me to get a reality check of my body size and proportions....(standing next to others in pics)
Well...this past week...we went out to lunch.... When I transferred the picture to my computer to email to everyone....looking at it in a larger view...it was obvious that I am now falling somewhere in the middle as far as body size.. Mind you...none of us are svelte...but it feels darn good not to be the largest any more. I did not realize this until I saw the picture....
I may not reach my goal by 5/24 but I am feeling good ya'll ...will keep on going. I am waiting to hear from my plastic surgeons office about my preauthorization for my tummy tuck......shoot....I will still have to come out of my pocket,....but it will be worth it!!
Since I don't feel comfortable posting my own pics anymore...here is my representation of my stomach and its current state...whee lawd...I need help!!!:

I was usually the biggest in the office too. I relate totally. Its like the higher you climb, the skinnier these women execs get.
I had to laugh at that pic. At 285 lbs I used to say I was like a marsupial hiding something in my pouch.
