Girls- remember when we were pregnant and we posted these pics all the time? I haven't done so since May 7th-ish when I did some pregger pics.
So when I started the 4Hour Body Tim Ferris INSISTED you take measurements and before and after pics. I took the measurements- down 12+ inches- but never took the pictures...and I regret it. Anyone going on a diet- TAKE PICTURES.
Ferriss talks a ton about accountability in his second book- how people are more successful just because they're keeping track. It isn't necessarily the diet (for me it sure was...I'm a big donut hog.)
August, 2009 165 pounds.
I didn't tell yous then...but I was definitely pulling some trick photography. I wouldn't take a head on shot and the angle of the cell phone pics made me feel better about myself at the time. Aren't we funny/mean to ourselves sometimes?
May, 2010 190 pounds (there's a baby in there!)
April 19, 2011 147 lbs.
no smoke or mirrors. just toilets.
side to side compare
See my butt sticking out(left)?
I was trying to play a trick...the old, arch your back to make your tummy smaller illusion...got me through college! Anyone see How I Met Your Mother last night? A magician never reveals his tricks...or at least plays to a very drunk crowd...I'm neither, I guess, unless yous are having wine with lunch.
So whatever, the big, dramatic reveal is going from baby in my belly to no baby, I 'spose.
Lacrosse game in Baltimore tonight. Must win. Here's a quote about that:
Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose.
