Ugh – the not so great part about the holidays? I skipped exercising and eating right for 4 weeks and gained back 7.7 lbs. NOT cool but I expected to gain 8-10 lbs. I weighed in this morning for my official weight gain and boy was it depressing even though I knew it was coming. I’m trying to stay positive and know that I really enjoyed the holiday season and ate all the goodies that only come once a year. But damn is it difficult this morning…staying positive that is. So in trying to stay positive, I’ve put together a couple of before and after pics to try to boost my spirits.
I realized when looking back to find some good comparison photo that until this year, I did not have many photos of me at all. So this was the best I could do.
Exactly 1 year apart – taken Christmas day 2008 and 2009. Not a great comparison but the best I could do.
I was looking for a full length photo of me and I had to go back all the way to August to find one even close. So August of 2008 on the left and December 2009 on the right.
I only feel marginally better now.
