I always told myself that one day, when I am ready, I will get a sudden urge and strength to lose the weight. It has taken me years to realize that nothing will come of waiting and I need to make the change now. So here I am, ready more than I have ever been to change. I am very passionate about things I feel I succeed in, but I give up very easily. I’ve decided to create a Tumblr to have a constant reminder of what I am working for, and to find motivation in blogs, photos, and other people on the same road. :) Starting Weight: 271 Goal Weight: 170 October 21 weigh in: 254 October 31 weigh in: 251 November 17 weigh in: 245 April 10 weight in: 246 September 3 weigh in: 252 September 21: 245 January 29 : 238 I also have my main Tumblr-check it out! alysiar.tumblr.com Your Goals, Minus Your Doubts, Equal Your Reality Tumblr (3.0; @ifitseasyitsnotworthit)http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8fzl6WiEP1r9yjsfo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/45893147840http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/45893147840Thu, 21 Mar 2013 00:19:42 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0e57ce89b5b9e0bb6108dcc4ab658973/tumblr_mjyowh4Ocl1r3lo4ro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://findbeautyinyourbones.tumblr.com/post/45833866098/i-was-246-pounds-in-the-picture-on-the-left-and" target="_blank">findbeautyinyourbones</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>I was 246 pounds in the picture on the left and 145 in the one on the right.</p> <p>I started out in a dress size 16 and am now in a size 6.</p> <p>1.5 years of clean eating and exercise.</p> <p>You can do it.</p> </blockquote>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/45893074688http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/45893074688Thu, 21 Mar 2013 00:18:28 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_meo14tHugN1r73imgo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235929065http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235929065Sun, 30 Dec 2012 14:48:36 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/1759191e8be4e8e01e6ccea740ec6882/tumblr_meqzv57mLG1r2zyogo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235775925http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235775925Sun, 30 Dec 2012 14:46:38 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/3ca043e51c9d13a1530a939d9c4c53fa/tumblr_mfg0wehgXO1s19jw6o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235673993http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235673993Sun, 30 Dec 2012 14:45:22 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maeb1cZmll1qelb7ro1_r1_500.gif"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://thereluctantrawfoodist.tumblr.com/post/37816091772/you-are-what-you-repeatedly-do" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">thereluctantrawfoodist</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>You are what you repeatedly do….</p></blockquote>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235369180http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235369180Sun, 30 Dec 2012 14:41:27 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8c2769535ea5df2be9054fe325d727c0/tumblr_mftlf3xyVT1qc4h71o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://peacefulserenityxhealthylife.tumblr.com/post/39173660413/im-so-grateful-i-took-whole-body-photos-of-my" target="_blank">peacefulserenityxhealthylife</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>I’m so grateful I took whole body photos of my self when I was as self conscious as one could possibly be! Without them I would have no comparison to how far I’ve come, nothing to compare to. I honestly can not remember who that person was in the <em>before</em> photo. (Incase anyone is wondering, I’m 5’10 and sitting on 70.5kgs!)</p> <p>I’ve worked so hard to change my body, mind and wellbeing that all I see when I look at my former self is an empty shell with very little <em>life</em>. When I look at myself now, I can make silly faces in photos and not feel stupid about them, why? Because my self confidence has grown phenomenally, to the point where going out in public in a bikini isn’t a cause for a heart attack for me anymore.</p> <p>It took a <em>very</em> long time for me to be able to accept myself as my body changed, almost immediately I could feel it on the inside. I had more energy from eating healthier foods (mainly increasing the intake of fresh fruits and vegetables), from having that increased energy I could exercise more often, in exercising more often I felt the need to continue to eat right, in continuing to eat right I began to establish great habits that have stuck with me throughout this entire journey. It wasn’t until a few months ago that I fully began to accept my new appearance, prior to my new self love I constantly felt as though I hadn’t changed, that my body looked like it did in the before photo.</p> <p>That’s where serious work on my mindset and views of myself had to come into play, it’s difficult.. but you have to work at viewing yourself in the positive light. Focus on the great aspects of yourself no matter how poorly you feel. If you can’t accept yourself for who you are, who you were.. nothing is going to change no matter how much weight you lose.</p> <p>LOVE YOURSELF. Love the way you look. Love your body enough to want to make a change so that it no longer has to suffer an unhealthy lifestyle. The only person who can change you, is you. YOU have to create your new life, you have the power. </p> </blockquote>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235353429http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235353429Sun, 30 Dec 2012 14:41:15 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7p8u5FWMi1r7769mo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235160735http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/39235160735Sun, 30 Dec 2012 14:38:47 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/618e8fc70de92d87b2566f60dfae1314/tumblr_mf8gww4Wgr1rk0z0lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/38367691174http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/38367691174Thu, 20 Dec 2012 01:17:31 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m98cosE3Fn1r2g1a0o1_500.gif"/><br/><br/><p>I really want to try one of these classes!</p>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/32185175654http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/32185175654Mon, 24 Sep 2012 01:57:32 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6e03zE3LL1rrek62o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/32185162459http://ifitseasyitsnotworthit.tumblr.com/post/32185162459Mon, 24 Sep 2012 01:57:07 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mat2e1j8WG1qfpcnio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://healthyokletsgo.tumblr.com/post/32127923037/gastrogirl-lavender-lemonade-i-need-to-make" target="_blank">healthyokletsgo</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://gastrogirl.tumblr.com/post/32122199356/lavender-lemonade" target="_blank">gastrogirl</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.eat-yourself-skinny.com/2012/09/lavender-lemonade.html" target="_blank">lavender lemonade.</a></p> </blockquote> <p>I need to make this.
