Why oh why do I always do this...

Why do I always do this to myself... Lose weight and gain some back... lose some and gain more back...  Every start of the year, it's an ongoing resolution - guess it's a lifetime resolution!

To keep myself accountable - I have decided to post these before and after pictures -

At my highest:




and these are after losing about 40 pounds



I have done it before and i can do this again. Just need to challenge myself by posting my struggles and successes. Might start again the Biggest Loser Tuesday ... tomorrow will get some pictures of me now and try to at least post about this once a month... Thanks for listening!

Anyone interested in a challenge?!!! :)

Good for you to keep challenging yourself. I hear you on the ups and downs of self. Good luck with your journey

I am with you. I lost over 50 pounds last year. I still have a ton more to go. Slow & steady ... :)

I hear you and feel your pain! I have the same up and down problem, although it's more up and not enough down. I swear our scales are broken--Rick doesn't weigh enough, and I weigh too much. I think some of his weight is sneaking onto my reading...LOL!

Good luck with your journey

I so sympathize with your struggle. I don't know that I'm up for the challenge just now but count me in as a cheerleader. Good luck!

And by the way, you look great at any weight!

Amy said...

I will join the challenge with you! I want to lose about 20 more pounds...I've lost 15 so far.

Esther said...

Well, we are behind you 100%! Good luck this year, and no matter what, I think you are a beautiful person inside and out!

I am in the same boat. I really need to get back at it. Maybe I will start posting to my blog again for my Biggest Loser Tuesdays...I need to hold myself accountable again!

Good luck! You've proven you can do it! This time last year I was just getting ready to lose some baby weight. Still not where I'd like to be either. All in good time.

Jami said...

It is a life battle for me - and I'm back at it again this year. I wish you fortitude and luck on your journey.

Good luck. I just don't ever seem to keep it going long enough to make a big difference.

You are so cute!! I hear you on the on going battle to lose weight. I lost 35 pounds last year and gained back 30 of them.. UGH.

I'll join you in the battle to beat all battles!! Losing and keeping it off is the hardest struggle I've ever faced. But, I need to loose about 15 pounds (according to my Dr.) and it will be so hard. But, maybe, with others doing it along with me, we can do it!!! And, you ARE gorgeous no matter what you weigh. I've always thought that of your pictures of yourself. So, don't feel badly about yourself, you are a doll!! And, I can't tell from the pics that you need to loose any but if it is your wish, than I'm right there with you!!
