Fashion Photo Friday
Hi all! So I have mixed feelings about this picture. I went out with a bunch of moms in the neighborhood and had a blast we drank (me very moderately), talked, laughed and just had a great time in general. We did this painting thing that was lead by an artist who basically said do this, then that and we did and the painting actually came out decent. After that was over we went to a bar and continued the party. It has been so long since id done something like this, and I felt like I belonged and was one of "the girls". And then I saw the picture, When I look at this I realize how far I have to go. I love love love my progress, I have lost 1/4 of my original body weight and am 2/3rds to goal. But I keep hearing don't lose anymore, you look great from friends, who I love. I am so not ready yet to quit. I think I just did thsi because Im trying to remotivate myself to stick to the plan and keep moving forwards.
Anyways I hope you all have a great weekend and make good choices!!!! Happy Friday!

I don't know Jo, I think you fit right in! and I love those pics you guys did!!!!!!! Looking good, keep up the GREAT work and I think you will know when it's time to stop losing, don't listen to others they just aren't use to seeing you slim and trim! Also, keep in mind that your body will shift, so where they think you are too thin will eventually be normal and the places you think are too big will also become normal. You totally rock this weight loss! :)
You look super. let your body go as long as it will. Yeah, you may get too thin for a little while but bounce back is real and it is a bi#%^. No one knows what normal looks like anymore with way over 70% of folks overweight. I lost 1/2 of my original body weight and now wish I could get about 5 off again!!!!

Couldn't agree more with the current feedback. I think you need to hear it over and over again from us LW's. Keep losing until your body stops. Give it time. Come back to this post and read it again and again when you hear others tell you that you are too thin. Be patient with your body too. You get there!
