While I have grown to value the fact that I am consciously making an effort to lose weight for ME and not for anyone else, I have to take pause for a moment and remember that one of my added motivators was to lose weight to look better for my best friends wedding. Last April, I had set a goal and to be honest, I had forgotten all about it. I said that since I had six months left to the wedding, my goal would be:

I will set a 20 pound goal. Anything above that is icing on top of the cake a big bonus.

Guess what….success! As of this week and my last weigh in, total weight lost: 24 pounds   Woot!!!

And while I still have a long way to go, I think this picture does show that I do look better having lost weight, right? But eeeewww…megotflabbyarms. Ktnxbai.
