Before pics~can't believe I look like this! [update]

PICS ARE IN MY ALBUM!!!!!

[02.24.10]**Update; well only 4 days into my healthy eating plan, but so far 6 days NO soda!! I feel great! I have also been doing a little exercise~using either my Hip Hop Abs DVD or just my 10 pound weights!! I posted a new side pic of myself next to my 'before' one...and I honestly think the bloating has gone down a bit thanks to my NO soda drinking!!! I just had to update because even though it's not a HUGE change, it's still a change:troll:


Well here I am in all my 'glory' :smilielol5: I am 23 years old and have managed to binge eat my way to this size...just a few years ago I was a size 7/8 and then after I had my baby I got down to a size 9 which was great to me...now here I am at a 16/18 and am very shocked that I look like this~I don't feel this big because I have been thin...so I got in that mindset. But lately I am really noticing how big I have gotten and almost want to go back into my shell that I worked so hard to get out of. I was actually bigger then these photos by about 25 pounds when I was 16 and I do NOT want to continue to gain...

So by me posting this pictures I hope to update every two weeks the progress I am making in picture form...that is what I did before when I lost my first 70 pounds...now I'm trying to lose about 50 all together. I'm going to be doing the Weight Watchers plan and exercise using Hip Hop abs every other day and then as I get thinner I will increase my exercise.

I believe our bodies are just a vessel that carries our souls but sadly society focuses way too much on the outer appearance of people. My journey is to mainly match what I feel on the inside to what I look like on the outside. I feel like a vibrant, young woman but my body just won't keep up lol and also I want to be the best mother I can to my daughter and to be able to keep up with her. If I don't stop gaining now I could easily gain more weight and that is a VERY scary thought.

I hope you all will root for me on my journey and witness me shrink ;)

Is your album set to 'private'? Or maybe you have to have a minimum number of posts before pictures appear. I know some web forums work that way - not sure about this one. Funny thing is, if I quote your post, I can see the text link to the pictures, but I can't see the actual photos.
 
ok...i'll put them in my album, i did that before but then i thought i figured out how to put them in my post so i deleted them out of my album lol
 
Figuring out there is a problem is THE most important step. I have no doubt you are gonna do great. Please keep us updated. You might want to create a diary in the diary section. It really helps make you committed to this journey
