Today I happened upon a photo of myself on Facebook that I had (obviously) untagged myself in. The picture literally blew my mind. I KNEW it was me, but the longer I stared at the more I couldn’t even recognize myself. Who the hell is that girl?
Most days it is hard to look at the work I have done and appreciate it. This photo makes me happy and sad all at the same time.

Who in the world doesn’t DREAD having a backside photo taken of themselves? Anyone? Yeah didn’t think so. I would rather chew off my hand then have a picture of my ass taken. Seriously, this is NOT cute:

But then something crazy happened, and this photo was taken of me and Kelli walking down town Bellingham. I’m not appalled, not at all. Hmm…is it possible that my back side is no longer revolting? I’m sure another 25 pounds taken off those thighs wouldn’t hurt, but things aren’t looking too shabby.

In other non ass related news, I took a 15 hour sleep last night and lost 4 pounds. This pretty much takes care of any weight I had gained over the lat week or two. I’m please. Oh and in exciting news, a Mr. Gaunt post will be coming soon! Pictures and a Q&A!
My good friend Kelli has been losing weight over the last year and half, and looks stinking AMAZING! We had a picture taken of the two of us about 2 years ago at the Denver Zoo both wearing white T-Shirts. We decided that we wanted to take an updated version while I was in Washington this past weekend. Enjoy!

Oh and just because I love a shock value, this is Kelli and I nine months ago. The last time I was in Washington for a friends wedding 50lbs ago:

Mr. Gaunt and our friends went to the Stock Show last night! We had planned to go last week but we got sick. In case you dont know, the Stock Show is BIG out here, all very country but lots of fun. I went for the first time last year and loved it so I insisted we make it a tradition. I can’t wait to have babies and buy adorable little lime green cowboy boots for them! Ahhh sooo cute!
Anyway I remembered that we had taken lots of pictures last year, and since it was shortly before we started WW I figured they would make GREAT comparison shots! See how far we have come in a year:
First up this photo is really funny because I don’t remember him doing this last year. This is Mr. Gaunt showing how he thinks cow is yummy. Trust me I really tried to make him stop.
