To anyone who might be joining for a New Years New Start a bit of advice: When you start your weight loss efforts, take pictures or videos of where you started from.

I know it might be painful for you take pictures of yourself at your heaviest. I know this because I've lost nearly 45 pounds, and I have no pictures of myself at my largest size because I avoided cameras very successfully since I was so unhappy with my size. I know I am successful because I am wearing smaller clothes sizes. I don't see any difference when I look in a mirror however.

I truly wish I had taken a "before" pic. Even if you never show anyone else photos of yourself before you start losing, you might be very glad you took them anyways.

Happy New Years and great success to all of us in 2021!
