Hi everyone,

NB: You Have to go to the site because it won't show all three pics otherwise, sorry!

I've reached my half way goal so I thought I would post some progress pictures. I've found it difficult to tell in myself the difference, but when I look at the photos it's more of a change than I thought. I have a goal of 154lbs, which is a total loss of 122lbs. Yesterday I went past my half way goal of 61lbs lost. I'm 5 foot 8, started at 276lbs and as of yesterday I am now 214lbs. I started off a UK size 26 in jeans and I'm pretty much into a size 18 (I'm pictured in size 20). The picture on the far right is from the beginning of 2009 when I started a weight loss attempt and failed (as usual). However, I didn't take any photos when I began my weight loss journey with WW on February 8th 2010, but I weighed the same. The middle photo is taken at the end of June this year and the current photo was taken yesterday. Hope you can all see a difference. And here's hoping I'm back posting before and after pictures next year.

    If you are anything like me... the improvements on looks can't compare to how how much better you probably feel mentally and physically.

    The confidence thing is definitely the biggest part for me. I'm starting to become more confident and I can't wait until it grows even more! Thanks.

    Thanks. This post made me smile. I don't think anything of mine has ever been described as teeny-tiny, except maybe my self esteem!
