Importance of Pics
Posted June 19th, 2008 at 10:27 AM by mitzimarie
I'm a blog-virgin! Well, WAS a blog-virgin... I'm making my first entry. 
While I know how painful it can be to see pics of yourself when you are overweight, I have come to realize what an important tool/motivator they can be. I wish that I had taken more pics of myself at my higher weights, so I could compare them to more recent ones. It is a huge boost to view your accomplishments.
For example:
Pic comparison...
This is me last April, at about 165 pounds.
This is me last Sunday, at 123 pounds...
The top pic is at 165... I wish I had this same kind of pic at 215 pounds! Wow!! That would be awesome.
So, the bottom line - Take some pics, and document your journey! You'll be glad you did.

Welcome to the world of blogging, Mitzi!
Your transformation is so inspirational!
Like you, I wish I had pictures of me at my heaviest weight, but I tend to hide away from the camera.Posted June 19th, 2008 at 09:07 PM by biogeek -

You are a definite inspiration. I remember long ago looking almost as healthy (and happy) as you do in that photo, now I'm thinking that maybe it really is possible. Thank you for sharing your pictures and I will consider taking some as well, maybe won't be able to share them for a while though!!!Posted May 3rd, 2009 at 07:50 PM by somethings gotta give
