Thank You Alison Stumpf from Alison Stumpf Photography!! http://www.alisonstumpfphotography.com/

So seriously? How many years since I wore a shirt that I could tuck into my jeans AND wear a belt?? And yes, those are my size 12 jeans- and Misses L turtle neck from H&M (where my totally hip and young friend Taz tells me their sizes run notriously small!) My favorite part about this outfit are my shoes though! LOL

The weekend I hung out with my friend Alison and she did these photos for me (one of the perks of being a photographer is photographer girlfriends)… I am pretty sure I was at about 186lbs. (Being on the road so much the past few weeks- I haven’t been able to weigh in much or take a picture of it either)

There are days I look at myself and think WHOA who is this skinny thing! Then other days I look at myself- like in these pics.. and see whoa.. she lost a lot of weight.. but look at that roll around her middle- still not there yet!! Amazing at how hard we are on ourselves…

I realized today… if I reach my “happy to be there” weight? I am only about 20 lbs away. The
super stretch goal” is close to 40 away… It has been YEARS since I have been this close to ANY goala weight of mine… Need to get myself going! :) I am proud of myself! Though it is hard to admit sometimes…
