Been feeling a little bummed lately about gaining a couple pounds and struggling to lose them again, despite all of my exercise and ridiculous endeavors. But looking back on a picture like the one above (from about 4 years ago) actually made me take a breather and remember how far I've come. So while the scale may say three pounds more than it did earlier this summer, it's nowhere close to the nearly 70 pounds more I was in this photo. So I'm putting this picture as my desktop background, in hopes that it will keep me going through marathon training (which is going terribly) and through the winter when the mere idea of going to the gym seems like a struggle.
