Me Minus 30

So things have been slow. My resolve is waning and I've slipped back into bad habits -- too many sweets, not enough movement, sporadic tracking.

I still go to Weight Watchers meetings. I step on the scale every week and hold myself accountable.

Despite my self-sabotaging, I've managed to lose just over 30 pounds. Had I been vigilant, I'd be a lot thinner by now -- but dwelling on that doesn't help. (I say this aloud because though I know it to be true, I still beat myself up regularly.)

I took the dogs to the beach last night. I was wearing size 14 jeans (yea!) and a baggy t-shirt because I'm not comfortable with the rolls of fat above the waistband.

My husband took this picture. I look mean but thinner, especially if you compare it to my beginning photo. And here are the numbers:
Starting weight: 214
Current Weight: 181
I'm about halfway to my goal. Damn this journey is hard.
