As for the HS moment, well Im kinda disappointed because I watch and obsess over my weight loss every day.

Who are the people that react most to your weight loss? People you see everyday or people you see once a month? Its once a month. We see ourselves everyday so we become acclemated to what we look like daily. |
Yup, that is why measurements, weigh-ins, and pictures every two weeks (I should probably do a month now, but the two weeks itself is an accomplishment). I wish I could stop staring in the mirror on a daily basis. That would help a LOT! |

We should try to get a sticky together called the 'mirror mentality'.
I can see it now...." you aren't trying to look like a mirror are you...."

I am forever 'checking' myself out to see if I am looking fatter, thinner or whatever...my whole day could hang on what I see looking back at me - I wonder if that ever goes away?

Rep Power: 65767 | | | I don't think you can be successful at WL or fitness as a whole without have some OCD tendencies.
Too many specific things involved.

Rep Power: 301522 | | I agree. What helps you, however, can also hurt you which is why I ditched the scale.
Free at last, free at last, great God almighty, I'm free at last...
Well...not free but less crazy I guess

Rep Power: 65767 | | | OK.
Promised new pictures.
New pictures delivered. The first 2 are originals form 2/26/08 for comparison, second 2 are simply progress pictures taken this morning- I do not know where the side view one came from, I actually look like I do not have a gut?!- the next is the promised compression shirt pics.
The quality of these are good since I am finially using a camera as opposed to my phone. I finally bought a card reader for my laptop.
Enjoy and comment as need be...
I think I look fairly well but the masses may think differently......

Rep Power: 65767 | | | Thanks Keith. I really did not see much until the side shot was pulled up.....
For some reason I really do not look like I have a gut in that picture- even though I know I do.......
