Here are a few pictures that I selected (I will add more) of ME and what I DO and how I want to look and be more comfortable with myself.

This is me on the elliptical - I used to do this almost daily. I probably weighed around 150lbs here. I still have the elliptical, though it’s being used sometimes as a clothes hanger… no more! This photo is from April 2004:

I want to feel comfortable when I go to the beach. I want to GO to the beach and not avoid it!

I want to be curvy, not too skinny, just “right”

I want to fit into “normal” jeans and have a nice, but very soft pot belly (so almost flat, but not completely)
