My issue now is gaining self confidence, even though I have lost almost 100lbs I still hide myself because I feel like the fatest person in the room.My mindset hasn't grasped the idea that I have gone from a size 18-20 to a 4-6. Looking at peoples before and after photos is what keeps me going, everytime my motivation slipped this is where I came to get inspiration. | I agree with everyone, it takes time for you mind to play catch up. I suffer from the same thing... I call it fat girl syndrome... its hard to not feel like the largest person in the room when you were for so long... and now there is a good chance you are one of the smallest people in the room! Give it time and the confidence with follow.
Again you look great! |

Rep Power: 0 | | | before & after Hey shopgirl you look awesome! Thanks for inspiring me. I am still working to get the last 10 pounds off but I will share my before and after pictures with you. My husband told me to flex for this picture (it was for a contest I am entering). You're doing awesome! Thanks so much for sharing your story. |

Rep Power: 0 | | Hi Shopgirl!
So far I've lost 58 pounds. Trying to get off the last 10 or 15. I'm not sure exactly how much more I need to lose but I sure know where I need to lose it. The belly fat from all those babies it taking a while to come off. Slow and steady is the way I look at it. As long as I'm moving forward I am happy. And thank you for the compliment. You know how those keep you going.
How are you doing with the last of your weight? Your face has thinned out so much. It is amazing how it feels, isn't it? I constantly get people who tell me I don't look like the same person. Watching your video is like watching a beautiful flower bloom. Just amazing. It made me cry because I understand how it feels. I carry around those two pictures of me wherever I go. I don't want to forget what it felt like to be heavy because I don't ever want to go back and I also want to remember just how far I've come when I feel like I'm not quite where I want to be.
