When pictures speak louder than words....

We all have pictures that have somehow stamped the timeline of our lives.  This is for sure one of those pictures for me....

I was about to cross over the finish line during the Vancouver USA Half Marathon last weekend. I could hear my husband calling my name.  I somehow managed to find him in the crowd, made eye contact with him, and shot him a little fist pump action while blurting out a loud, "YESSSSS!".  That was to let him know I had totally blown my time goal out of the water.   You can read everything I have to say about this picture - the good, the bad, and the ugly - over on my running blog, www.WillRunForCoffee.com.

I wanted to be sure to share it here on my weight management blog because this photo would not exist had it not been for my weight loss journey.

I have to say, sharing this picture with you is way more fun than sharing my fattitude laden "before" shots.  It's even more fun for me than posting before & after comparisons!  The gal you see pictured here is a completely different person than before my journey began.  This picture sums up my entire journey in one snapshot moment.  On top of all that, it was time for me to find a new picture that represents who I am now. This is it, baby!  I'm a world away from the "old Heather", and I totally deserve to have an image that reflects the current me.  :)
