Images Point You in the Direction of Your Dreams (D298)

Dreams do come true, right? So it is possible to see what I dream become reality.

However, when it comes to the scale, I’m not holding my breath to reach this number… it’s a dream number that I haven’t reached since college and before my first child. I’m not even sure it’s possible for me to get there ever again, so I’m setting my sights a little higher… not much, but a little more realistic.

My goal is to return to my pre-marriage weight, the weight I was when I met my husband. That’s a weight I feel confident and healthy, but haven’t returned to in eight long years. I put on the first few pounds with marriage, as many people do… then kept adding a few each year. Two years into marriage, we had our beautiful son and with complications in pregnancy I couldn’t work out so that was more weight gain and loss of muscle. After that, things have never been the same.

So, today’s image is an inspiration, a dream, a reminder of where I’ve been and an arrow pointing to where I want to go.

What markers, arrows, or images do you have pointing you in the direction of your dreams?

Technical knowledge and images: I’m not listing camera manual reading or technical training I’m doing on every blog post because some days I’m doing extra to cover for other days… like the last few days I’ve been watching a documentary, The Adventure of Photography, 150 years of the photographic image. There are over 1700 images shown and lots of technical knowledge and history of photography from precursors to modern day digital. As long as I know that every week I’m covering way more than 7 days worth of camera manual reading and viewing images, I feel good about what I accomplished.

    You can do it Tasra! If you see it and believe it, you can achieve it.

    Well, I believed the same thing but did it and more. I actually got back to my high school weight. Yikes. I meant to lose 20 pounds but it just kept coming off and I ended up at 114. Luckily I've been able to put some of that back on and now I'm happily hovering around 118-120. And yes, I definitely feel so much better. You can do it too. You just can't let anything sidetrack you.

    Wow. So what was your secret for the weight just coming off? Mine certainly isn't just coming off, I'm working it off. Can't imagine getting down to my high school weight.
