My scale has traditionally been my number one nemesis. I dreaded seeing what number would pop up next. But lately that has changed. I started working out in earnest right after Halloween. The last time I worked out regularly was over three years ago and I got sidetracked after we moved. Now that my son is 2, he's able to go to the drop-in care at the gym with no problems (before I was at the mercy of whoever happened to be working). I found an exercise class that I absolutely love (yay jazzercise!) and yoga is now offered on the alternating days. I've been trying to focus for the past 10 months or so on eating well. I avoid red meat for the most part and I try to eat fruits/vegetables at every meal. Now, I'm not very successful, but I do try. Since November, I've lost 26 pounds. Some of that weight loss can be attributed to stress from my personal issues, but I'm determined to keep it up. I feel so great after I attend class. I've made some new friends and I've gotten out of my comfort zone.
So, as you can tell, I need a pedicure. Hubby gave me gift certs for Christmas for one and I haven't gotten around to it yet. I debated on posting the one with my weight illuminated in bright blue on the screen and decided it was a little TMI. Plus, I kind of like that you can see my reflection a bit in the screen... CC

WAY TO GO!!!! That's such a huge deal to start losing weight and feeling better-- I know I really want to be in your shoes right now! Great picture too! (just so you know, you've got nice feet... is that weird to say? but i have an excuse... my dad is a podiatrist... must be in my nature! haha!)
Ah, one of my favorite nemesis's too. GOOD for you for your progress! Keep it up! I really like your feet placement in the photo.
For CC- You could have found more light and then your wouldn't have the shadows from your feet.
Great job on the weight loss! I keep meaning to do that, but my "nemesis" happens to be that I don't like to exercise, lol!
I agree with April's CC - a bit more light.
I love your spin on tradition.
I'm proud of you for keeping on track! That's something that I'm still working on. :)
Great picture.
Awesome! Break that tradition! Beat that scale! And great picture, too.
you are so amazing! How do you do it??? I would give anything to lose that kind of weight right now...well, almost everything. :)
You DO have nice feet too...cute!
Ha ha. What a fun angle. That was a very creative way of bringing out TRADITION. Nice job
Seeing your toes makes me want a pedicure. Good job!
