Fine, FINE.

Okay, I’m just gonna cowboy up and put it up there. I took pictures. Meh.

This is what 260, size 24, looks like.












I took them right before I left yesterday. Hope you enjoy my obnoxiously orange t-shirt! That's how we roll at VT. Even though we ended up losing to Alabama. Sad face.

Honestly, I feel bigger than these pictures make me look. Which I suppose isn't a bad thing. Maybe it's the dark-wash jeans.

My least favorite – and what I hope will become my most favorite – part of the picture(s) is the several hundred chins I’m sporting. Because...

...Can I tell you something? Promise you won’t tell? I actually think I’m pretty. I like my face. And somewhere along the line I developed the mindset that thinking such things about yourself was a bad thing. And during SuccessfulWeightLoss1.0 (SWL1?), you could definitely tell that I had lost weight by my face. Namely, one less chin every so many pounds. It was my favorite part about losing weight, and I can’t wait to see it again, and go further this time. God/Allah/Alanis Morrissette willing.

Why shouldn't you think you're pretty? I"m sure you are! And you ARE allowed to say it ... fat doesn't mean ugly!!!!
