2015 Easter Challenge
#41
Thanks for backing me up with the measurements/photos Mike and ohelp! Last year when I was successfully losing, I took pictures at the beginning. I was not at all happy with what I saw. 6 weeks later, I was disappointed because I was only down about 6 pounds. I felt so discouraged I was ready to throw in the towel. I took a second set of pictures and was astounded that I could actually see a difference! It was subtle, but I could see change happening! This encouraged me to keep going! I swear had I not had those photos to compare, I would have probably stopped yet again...like I had done so many times in the past.
I'm looking forward to taking some progress photos again so I can again see with my own eyes that I'm making strides yet again

I just looked at the pics in my sig again. I think I looked (and probably felt) best around 178 (Sept 23, 2010). I think I'll make that my end of year goal.

Been 20 minutes a day ( 2 x 10 minutes) (though the ass is well cushioned - it hurts!!)
Aiming for 2 - 15 minute sessions tomorrow
