Several people now have told me they read my blog, look at my pictures, and follow my journey on a regular basis. Three of these people have told me they see BIG changes in the pictures, but the pictures do not do justice to what I look like in person. The first person to say this was my friend, Katie Bowling (owner and master creator at One Delightful Button). Katie, her husband, Philip, and their son, Judah, moved from VB to Boston not long before I started this journey and I saw them for the first time 3 or 4 weeks ago since starting this program. Katie told me she's been stalking my blog and that nothing beats seeing me in person. It was definitely encouraging for sure! Thanks Katie!
The second person or really people to tell me that the pictures don't do the transformation were my sweet Oregon family and dearest friends, Kory and Sara. I video skyped with them last week for the first time since I started this journey. It was so fun to see their reactions! Can't wait to go see them (hopefully) soon! The third person was my sister-in-law, Jess. I saw her yesterday and the first thing she said was "Ash! You're wasting away!" So great to have such encouragers.
Also, my story is posted on the Tidewater Bariatrics Facebook page. If you want to read it go here. They posted it March 13th.
This week I finally broke the one pound streak I was on. I lost two this week. I hit 55 on the program and 60 over all. I am officially 2/3 of the way done! Only 30 pounds more to lose!
