8 Year Weigh-In

So… I did a little research today- because I realized, having lost 61 lbs (as of today) that I don’t know when I’ve EVER weighed 183 lbs.

All I had was this comparison (full body on the left) from my freshman year in college, October 2005,  halloween, CCNY volleyball, where I figured I might have been in the 190’s? (Right pic I took this weekend 5/7)

I was wrong! I called up my primary doc who I’ve been going to for years and it looks like in September of 2005 I weighed in at a physical at 202 lbs.

July 2004: 195

Kept going back…. last time I was in the 180’s? July 2003- I had just turned 16, 186 lbs. I’m now 183! 8 years later and I’m still a little over-weight but weighing less than I did EIGHT YEARS AGO! Def something I’m patting myself on the back for :).

In the 170’s? Aug 20th, 2002= 176lbs., 15 years old.

In 2 months I’ll weigh less than I did as an over-weight 14/15 year old teenage Sua. CRAY CRAY to say the least!

This was me at my worst- I will never look like this again! I even LOOK depressed. Jesus. November 18th, 2010

First time I’ve dropped numbers on my weight loss. At this point I don’t care. I’m living a healthier life now and that is what’s important. I’m not here to preach, but share. I really love myself too much to see myself in those conditions back in December 2010.

I’ve become a huge believer, that everyone has their moment. Which is why preaching just won’t do. You’ll see your picture, you’ll get bad news from the doctor, you’ll rip a pair of jeans, or bulge out of your bra or pants- and you’ll do a 360. It’ll only happen on your time and your terms.
