This morning's WI showed a loss of 2.6lbs! :oD I guess all those walks with the stroller DID make a difference! Mr. SB and I are tracking our weight loss percentages too - I've already lost 5% of my starting body weight!
Now, on to the motivation front. This year is my 10 year high school reunion, which will be held sometime this summer. This is a big deal to me. I really wish it were next year, so I could lose ALL of the weight that I want to, but I guess that I still have time to lose about 20lbs, right?
You see, I was teased about my weight all through school. Really, grade 12 was about the only time I wasn't, but I thought maybe it was because people had finally matured enough to see past such things. I had lost about 30lbs in grade 9, and when I look back at my high school pictures, I wish I would've felt better about myself. But even though I had lost weight, and was actually relatively thin in high school, they still called me the same old names. It's like they couldn't actually see me. I distintly remember one little troll guy oinking at me in the hall. I resolved in Grade 12, that if he did it again, I was going to slam the fucker into a locker (sorry for the language - I have unresolved rage issues about high school). Lucky for him, he left me alone that year.
But as you can see, this talk of a reunion brings back all of my old insecurities, and I really wish I could lose about 100lbs in 6 weeks.

you're going to look amazing at your reunion. Having SuperBaby there will make people shut up about weight... at least that's what it was like at our 10 year reunion (fork, that was 5 years ago. WAH!). And seriously, if anyone does say anything, truly slam the forkers into a locker. If they still haven't grown up, they deserve locker-rash at the least. At the LEAST.
oh sb, i have such a similar story. i was overweight and teased incessantly by my peers. i was called names and tormented. i remember in grade 9 being called the beast and taunted on the tranist bus as well as at school. :(
i was really fucked up for high school and even most of university.
if it were me, i probably wouldn't go to my reunion. thank god my school doesn't do reunions.
