Thinspiration

All the greatest weight loss stories I follow have a single great tool in common: thinspiration. Photos and stories of other's who have completed their journey, or an old picture of yourself and the way you used to look. It's a little painful to see myself looking skinny and beautiful, but frankly what better motivation is there? I know full well I'm capable, after all it is...me. So here's some thinspiration!

 2006. Granted no one looks like they did at seventeen, but good gracious this plus 20 lbs would work for me. 

About three months after I met Brian, 2007. Look how small my arms are! (check out Brian's sweet 90's boy band beard) This is a more reasonable goal. 

Two-ish years ago trying on wedding gowns. A little bigger than the previous picture, but frankly still much thinner than the present. This is when I started rocking the Marylin belly. Squishy but sexy. 

Annnd this is me circa two days ago. Work to do! 

Seeing what my body has been gives me confidence that it can go back there. I think I'll print out that bikini picture and hang it over my treadmill. 

Time for lunch...veggie stir-fry.
