The Dreaded Initial Weigh-In!

O.k...I had to debate whether or not to post the dreaded "before" pictures on here. Do I really want all my fatness out on the internet for the world to see? It takes me back to an infamous line (by Anthony Michael Hall's character) in one of my favorite movies from the '80's, Sixteen Candles. Yes, I am really dating myself here...along the lines of: "I can just see the thing getting duped a thousand times and winding up on cable somewhere". Insert "internet" in place of cable!

I decided to post the pics since I need to held accountable! I let myself get this fat and I have to see what I am at this point in life! So here I am in all 211.5 pounds of my fatness! Seriously, people let me get this big?? I look like an Oompah-Loompah! I had to do the typical "before-picture looking miserable-face"!

Hey, my feet look small though!

I'm a roly-poly!

Yes, these are my feet with the hard to miss bunion-ectomy scars! And yes I know I need a pedi in a bad way!
