My Motivation for Starting IP

I guess though out my "adult" life I have never paid much attention to the things that I have been eating. I would eat whenever I wanted and whatever I wanted. I had to restrictions. I was on vacation in 2011 with my family and the girls took this picture together.

I looked at myself on the far right and didn't recognize the 24 year old that looked 6 months pregnant. I was mortified that is what I was walking around looking like. I was living in La Crosse WI at the time and one of my friends in Champaign IL was a provider for IP and he had to talked to me about it but I never did anything with it. The day I saw this picture I decided that as soon as I could I was going to start IP. Well some stuff happened and the next month we ended up moving down to Champaign IL and once we got settled I started IP. I started in August 2011 and in March 2012 I have lost a total of 91.75 pounds. 

I take pictures at the beginning of each month. These help me to see my progress. The picture on the left is from August when I started the program. The picture on the right is from the beginning of February. I don't have an updated one with me today. I am going to post a whole section on my progress pictures.

When I look at these two pictures I do not see the same person. Everything on my body has changed. You can see my neck OMG it just amazes me. These are all the motivation that I need in order to keep going to get to my goal. My skin is better then it ever has been, I have so much more energy. I can not say enough good things about IP. I just thought you would like to see this and hopefully it can motivate you as much as they do me!

Have a great day!
