If that wasn't motivation to work a little harder on my health I don't know what else could be. It is hard - living a busy and full-filled life helping and serving takes a toll on the body in other ways while working the heart. Reality checks suck, but they are good and knowing you - you will make the best of it and be blessed because of it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17099910226631882696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25169328.post-8993436151590533562011-10-26T09:33:46.687-05:002011-10-26T09:33:46.687-05:00Nadine,

When my hubs came home from his last deployment, not this one, one before my son was a Sr (as you know), and we were heading on a cross country pcs (as you also know) and i was stressed, and I ate and I ate and I didn’t exercise but when I looked in the mirror and I didn’t see it. I mean I knew I had gained weight but my husband still thought I was beautiful and my son still thought I was the best mom to ever live....and that is all I felt was love..but I also seen pictures later down the line and realized I had gained about 30 pounds..and I felt horrible but no one else seemed to care or notice as I am sure is the case in your home. I think we are so blessed to have such wonderful men in our lives that see us and love us and no matter we are loved. It’s kind of wonderful. But now the trick is trying to see ourselves through their eyes. I recognized I needed to get back down to my normal, healthy weight just because I wanted to be fit, not so much for how I looked. It took a lot of hard work but I am almost there ... you are beautiful inside and out so when you think it’s time, which seems to be now your going to do what needs to be done!! Good luck my friend, and if you want to think about weight watchers it was a great sensible plan that allowed me to still eat all the foods I loved and loss weight!USMCWIFEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15353841768696096981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25169328.post-44784445884770195712011-10-25T19:50:58.051-05:002011-10-25T19:50:58.051-05:00Awww, pictures always make us feel the worst about...Awww, pictures always make us feel the worst about ourselves. If you want to make a change besides the eating just find 30 minutes of your day at least 3 times a week for a really brisk walk- while holding some 3llbs weights in your hands. It's a start- its not hard & it get's you moving in the right direction! I have rallied four ladies in my neighborhood & we workout of my house 3 days a week now- so I know the feeling of needing a lifestyle change. Goodluck!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17370740043122954244noreply@blogger.com
