The "Weigh In Now" sign is blaring at me from the top of the screen, but I refuse. I've been so swollen the last couple of days and I really don't want to see what that has done to my weight. I haven't been eating as much, so I know it's just water, but I still don't want to see!
Going to drink alot of water the next couple days plus work on my exercise, and hopefully the swelling will go down so that I feel comfortable at least weighing by the end of the week, if not sooner. We shall see...
On a good note, we got family pics Saturday and they are really cute! Had a little trouble getting the boys to smile, my 5yo is going through a shy phase and the 2yo just wanted to hold the football, he didn't care about pictures. But we got some good ones, and even ordered our Christmas cards--very excited about that. First time to get cards with our pics on it, lol! Getting family pics is a HUGE accomplishment for me...the last time we got pics of the whole family was when my older son was a year old. I hated the way I looked, so I hadn't gotten pics of myself since. I would just get the boys pics. But, 40lbs. later, I feel good enough to be in pics again! I'm not yet where I want to be, but I like myself alot better! :)

It is hard seeing yourself in an unflattering way. I have hardly any pictures of me from ages 12-27 for that reason. I do slightly regret it. I was unhappy with my hugeness, but having memories might be nice.

That's what I think now too. I know I hated the way I looked, but it would have been nice to get a family pic when Caleb was first born, rather than waiting til he was 2! But, I can't change the past, only the future!! :)

I'm still not a fan of photographs. It's good to know others felt the same way and are more comfortable with it now.
