I went to have lunch today at my favorite restaurant....the girl who is always my server told me I looked really good and that she could tell I've lost weight. It made me feel really good.

The hardest part about this whole thing is that it's so difficult for me to work so hard and not see immediate results. I'm just too impatient. I don't believe enough in myself, or the process to really see there is and will be a huge pay off.

I really, really hate having my picture taken. But I was thinking that it might be a good idea to take a picture of myself at the beginning of every month, over the course of the coming year, so that I can really see how well I'm doing.

I hate seeing myself in pictures. I'm so fat...it's horrible. Maybe seeing something good in them will help me.
