Sometimes it's important to take stock of the progress you've already made.

Recently I've been in a bit of a funk because my weight loss has come to a screeching halt. I keep rubberbanding around the same two pounds, almost breaking out of it but then overeating due to the stresses of life and undoing any new progress. Which is only adding more stress to my life, thus perpetuating the cycle.

But then today I went looking for this old video as part of a story I was telling some friends about some weird ice cream I ate once, and I was astonished by how different I look compared to then. This was from two years before I started taking care of my weight, and the difference is INSANE. It is legitimately hard to believe I was ever that fat. I'm still pretty fat now but I least I look like an actual human being instead of whatever THAT was. It's funny because intellectually I know how far I've come, but I feel like I lost that emotional understanding, and this is helping me to get it back. Getting a look at the big picture is helping me to stop sweating the small details, and I feel like it's rekindling my motivation on all this.
