Compare & Contrast

Ya know, when you plod along day by day, it's hard to "see" changes. Especially when week to week, you go up 2lbs to lose 1lb to gain 1.5lbs to lose .5lbs. It's enough to drive a woman to drink.

Luckily for me, I've been taking pictures for yearsssssss. Unluckily for me, I've been taking pictures for yearsssssssss.

In other words, I can see times when I was "slimmer" than I am today, but was till "fatter" than I was a few months before that.

Anyhoozle, it's all in the past and all I'm concerned w/is the recent past, when I revised my day 1 back to be November 12th of last year.

Since then, I've slowly crawled out of my rut, consistently taken my daily pudge pics and every 30 days taken my updated logo pic. It's about time to do a compare and contrast.

Going forward, I'll do these every 30 days. It helps to realize that even losing "just 7lbs" there are changes to my body. Though @ times it's hard for me to really "see" it. But that's b/c I have all sorts of disordered ways of looking @ myself. When I stare at them too hard, it all looks the same.

@ first glance, even I can admit I see a change and feel deep down, I can do this.

If you are a slow loser, I suggest you take pics and just compare them from week to week. It may be enough for you to ignore the scale.

Wonder no more

Have you ever wondered, Hmmm...I wonder what Renee's back fat looked like on day 28.

Or,

Hmmm...What I really wanna know is just how deep was that right side crease on day 42?

Or how about,

Hmmm...Could I ever find a way to compare her left side on day 18 vs. day 62?

Oh...my curious, yet demanding, little friend, you can...you totally can.

Day 91

ALL stats & logos have been updated.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I feel a bit bummed, not @ the #'s they are sloooowly going down. It's the unbuttonable tight blue jeans.

Oh well. Gonna bust my ass for day 120 where the goal is to be able to close 4 of the 5 buttons. Cripes.

Day 35

In order for me to bring myself to post the "Today I weigh" entry, update the stats in the middle column, add the current pic to the logo and post the day 35 pudge pics in this entry I must do it w/o any additional commentary.

In coming weeks I'll revisit the last two weeks in greater detail and will hopefully have gained some wisdom and insight in the process. For now, just for today, I'm not explaining or giving a backstory or excuse for anything. If I attempt to, I'll chicken out and either avoid the reality of it altogether. Or worse. I'll stay stuck.

Starting point

I know I just said no front shots, but I meant not on a daily basis. For the progress pics, which will be posted every 30 days, I can't deny the reality. Now when you see the pics, keep in mind, I could've forced the button closed, but didn't even try. So no I'm not flashing you, my pudge is just happy to see ya.
