I felt fat and horrible and couldn't see past the person I used to be over 2 years ago.
During my journey I have taken a lot progress photos to help me see the transformation myself. Today after looking back at some old photos I stumbled upon these beauties...
This was taken on my 21st Birthday on mine and my Husbands 'Honeymoon' to York in 2009.
This was taken a few days later when we was doing the touristy things like the Jorvic centre. I think I was taking one of my many stops to catch my breath!
These shocked me... I always knew I was big but sometimes I do forget just how big I was. I was never in denial over my size. I was the first to put my hands up and admit I was a large lady who liked to eat meals that matched my husbands portion sizes then some.
As I was looking through old photos today it was like looking at photo of someone else. I am completely different to who I was there. That person wasn't happy no matter how much she tried to convince herself she was.
Today before he went to work I handed my husband my phone and asked him to take a couple of photos of me. I knew it was time to add another photo to my ever growing collection of 'during' photos. This is me, today.
12st6lbs of completely different person. I have a new lease on life and goals I will achieve this year. I never thought I'd buy clothes from a normal shop...especially non elasticated ones. To let them photos sink in a little more... Here they are side by side.
It's never too late to start!
