This week, I've strived to overcome that, and I've been pretty successful in both areas (eating and exercise). I still wasn't gung ho, though... I've just been faking it 'til I make it. Know what I mean?
Yesterday, I saw an older woman (my friend's Granny) whom I hadn't seen in several months. She asked if she'd ever met me. At first, my feelings were a little hurt because YES she's met me, many times! When I said, "Granny, I'm Stacy!", her mouth dropped open and she gasped, "You've lost so much WEIGHT! Cara told me you'd lost weight, but you don't even LOOK the same."
Then last night, an old high school friend reconnected with me on Facebook, and said, "You look exactly the same as you did in high school. Not a day over 20!" I'm 39, and it's a recent picture.
Today, I feel GUNG HO AGAIN! I needed those NSVs!

Oh my word I could have written that post. I am on a plateau right now, and struggling to get off of it. My own fault TOTALLY. We are in the process of a major move to a new state, my husband is already there while I'm here among the boxes and bubble wrap with 2 kids, and can find every reason in the world not to take that walk after dinner, or to go through a drive through instead of cooking, or to have that snack after I put the kids to bed.
So, the scale shows no loss (and no gain either, so I guess that's good). But, I am brand new on Facebook this week and somebody sent me a message saying the same thing - y"ou look just like you did in high school!" (17 years and 45 pounds ago).
I will take the victories where I can get them, and I will keep moving forward.
You're doing great, and you're inspiring people- even people you've never met before! Keep up the good work.
