Before and after pictures, as per Coyote and yorkiemalts request...

Dang Becky! What a change! You look great!

I totally need to make some changes. I'm like you and don't think I look "that bad" or "that fat". The other day my friend Andrew forwarded me the pictures from his wedding reception, and I look freaking disgusting. I almost cried. I have never been skinny, and can't imagine myself that way, but I know I've looked way better than that. And to think, I thought I looked really cute that day. So that is definitely motivation to make some change.

Then, I was in the drive-thru the other day. I was behind this lady in a mini-van. I hope I don't offend anyone here, but this lady was seriously fat! Like her right side was all the way in the passenger seat. She was so big that she couldn't even reach far enough to get her two bags of food and humongo sized drink. Her car was bouncing all over the place every time she moved. I was just sitting there thinking, OMG...that's where I'm headed. So a bit more motivation. I wish I would have taken a picture so I could have more than just a mental picture.

So yeah, its time to make some changes. I usually eat pretty healthy. I love fruits and veggies. I work right by Pikes Place Market, and they have some of the most yummiest fruits there. I don't really like a lot of sweets. But, I am a major Coke addict. I've given it up before and dropped 25 pounds. But then I think, ok, I'm just gonna have one with pizza. And before you know it, I'm drinking 3, 4, 5, 6 a day. I also need to eat breakfast.

I don't eat any artificial sweeteners, they do more harm than good and cause diabetes. I try to stay away from foods with preservatives. And I eat natural and organic when possible. And I absolutely hate milk!

Anyway, you look great! Hopefully I'll be doing some before and after pics soon!
