Back when i started my weight loss i took "before photos" and on my phone. 4 months later and 20 lbs down, my phone was lost along with the pics which i hadnt uploaded anywhere. Call it vanity if you will, because i suppose it is a little, but i was annoyed that i had lost my true starting weight photo, as the threads and pics ive seen in this thread were one of my big motivations.

6 weeks later and another 8lbs down, i was scrolling through my hotmail and noticed the OneDrive folder. Never having used it i clicked in and found all the photos from my phone.....being a windows phone, it automatically uploaded my photos to my Hotmail drive for me.

I weigh on the same scale every fortnight and it gives a little printout which i always keep. Now i have the photos to match against each printout. Nothing quite like an unexpected victory to brighten up your day =)

Oh, i still have another 20lbs or so to go, so wont be posting my pics just yet.
