It’s been pretty much smooth sailing the last few days.  But just so I keep the motivational fires burning I thought I’d post an unflattering photo or two to remind me of how far I’ve come. 

I actually started this blog about 5 lbs lighter than I was last summer.  Here’s me in July when we took a day cruise from Annapolis to St. Michael’s (it’s called the “Day on the Bay”, and if you’re ever in Annapolis I highly recommend it).  I’m about 165 lbs here:
