Transformation Tuesday?
I really admire everyone’s transformation sharing. It has inspired me to be brave and share mine.
Even though I didn’t return to FatSecret until January it has been a year since the Doc scared the bejeezus out of me enough to try to improve my health. Again. I was making small changes but coming back here has been made it much easier as I get so much inspiration and support from you all.
But then I started sorting through old photographs and thought ‘well, which two do I choose?’ as this weight loss has been an issue for decades. I’ve shared here before that I have lost & regained massive amounts of weight several times over the years.
So this really isn’t a ‘transformation’ photo as much as it’s a ‘this is what an eating disorder looks like’ photo.
There is a photo missing from between 2001 & 2011 (around 2006) when I lost over 120 lbs. Up and down the scale over decades.
For the record, I’m not proud of this. I’m just being honest about it.
Is this supposed to inspire anyone? I don’t know. Maybe it will .. to show.. ‘Never give up trying?’
Will THIS be the time I fix it forever? I don’t really know. I hope so. Hope, I hope, I hope. All I can say is ‘Stay tuned’ as I am my own personal cliffhanger.
It’s taken every ounce of nerve I have to even post this.
PS: Yes, I know, there’s an extra ‘97 photo but that’s of me holding my firstborn grandson in my arms and I think that deserves an extra slot.
