Two "during" photos...just putting this here because I'm proud of myself

Sometimes I have trouble really seeing my progress, so I was looking through some during photos I've taken. I just took a new set a few days ago so I can see how I respond to Strong Curves. I'm putting this in Fitness & Exercise because along with a pretty good diet, I attribute my success to consistency with the programs I've been on.
Anyway--long story short. The left side photo is after I'd lost 20 pounds and about 2 months into NROLFW, about 170 pounds. Right side was taken a few days ago at 161 pounds. I completed NROLFW in October and have been doing some lifting and TRX and recently started Strong Curves as I want to focus on lower body.

I don't have many people in my life outside of MFP and the gym who really care about things like this... so just felt the need to share. Progress has been slow but steady. According to an InBody test I got at the gym the other day, I still have 27.5% body fat, and have 118 pounds of lean muscle.
I really wish I had a full body shot at my starting weight of 189 pounds... but at the time I just didn't want to see the reality.
