What a difference 12lbs can make!

Started my weight loss journey on May 21, 2013. As of today, July 11, 2013 I have lost 12lbs totally by eating lean and fresh and occasional trips to the gym for cardio. I had no idea how bad I looked until I saw this picture! Embarrassing!!!

    Nice job! You look great!

    I do wonder though... did you notice your dress is completely see-through in the second pic? You look great so it really doesn't matter. Just weren't sure if you noticed?

    Thank you! I dont think it is see-through but may have been lines from where I was sitting. Its a thick material but now I'm concerned and am going to check it out. LOL!

    Very nice!

    ETA: I don't think it's see-through.

    I've seen the dress in person and it's no where near see through, it's actually a thick dress. Maybe it's just the way the picture was taken idk. But yes you look great!

    What is nice is that you are wearing the same dress in both pictures and it really shows what 12 pounds gone can do for your look. Amazing and wonderful ... and no I don't see through your dress either.

    It's probably just the lighting, but in the second picture you can clearly see her underwear. Again, no big deal, you look great! Just thought you should know because a lot of people aren't seeing it.

    that's a great idea to show progress early on. those first 12 lbs make a huge difference in how we feel, but it doesn't show the way 40lbs does so a picture in the same outfit is a great motivator!! Congratulations too!
