It's been a while

So, yeah, it's been a while.

I have been seeing a psychologist for over a month now.  She is great and has really worked through some issues with me.  I still have a way to go but at least I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now.

One of the things that my psychologist told me to do today was take a picture of me today and put it side by side  of one of me when i was 190kg.  As I have a body image issue she wanted me to see that I had achieved a lot and to oat myself on the back.  It was a hard thing to do and I still can't see as much of a change as my husband can see in me.

But here is the picture i took and put it together with the one at 190kg and 160kg.


I even set myself a challenge - to get into size 18 clothes this year - so I bought two new exercise tops.  A pink and a purple one.  Below is a picture of me in the purple size 18 - it's a little tight but it's a start.


The one thing I am sure of - is that my arms are the worst part of my body.  arrggghhh.

So, now to tackle my other problem, insomnia.  Any tips greatly appreciated.
