I don't know who needs to hear this but take a before photo when you start your weight loss journey. Even if you don't share it with another soul, even if you hate being in pictures and avoid them like the plague.
My goal is to lose 50 pounds 189 to 139 5' 6" female.
I have lost 21 pounds in 4 months, and to be honest, I don't see it, I don't feel, and due to the clothes I wear (sweat pants and very large and loose shirts) my clothes don't show it. It is very discouraging. I even checked on a scale at a doctor's office just to make sure mine at home wasn't broken! I know I am very harsh on my appearance, so this plays a role. I hate photos of myself to the point I won't take any myself. Since the weight loss is slow, it's harder to tell. If I had the before photo, maybe I would at least be able to show myself what I have accomplished. It would require less effort for me to keep on going.
I wish I had a before photo to compare myself with, but all I got is the number on the scale for now.
Going to get off my ass to take some now for the rest of my journey.
