I am logging in on xmas day to add my comparison photo. Last xmas my son took a pic and it got me looking for a healthy way to lose weight once and for all.

I know you're going to disagree and say nice things.....but i don't see much difference!! but then i have been doing this slowly so i could enjoy my life too!

Here goes.....and hope you're all having a very merry xmas xxxx

    I agree on the very very tiny photo part, it's hard for me to see them very clearly.

    But from what I can see I definitely see the more recent photo in the dark outfit is a smaller version of you. Are you able to enlarge the photos so we can see them better?:wink:

    IMHO losing it slowly is way smarter than dumping 50 pounds very quickly so ppl will notice. It took 30 pounds for ppl to notice my loss. I only need to lose like 40-45 so that was kind of upsetting.

    The good news is I kept it off for 2 yrs and only when I let excuses get in my way did I gain back 5-10 lbs.

    I have been on MFP STILL so I am back at it and lost 5 of the 10..........

    THIS IS FOREVER!! Like it or not................

    As for the picture...........it is all in how you take it. The 2 shots you have up will not really help in before after

    For me the biggest diff was in my face, chin and collar bones.

    Take some shots of different positions, in the same clothing..............and then compare in a few months.

    Pictures helped me tremendously. I am hitting up a few today because in a month I expect some changes!!

    Keep up the awesome work!!:drinker:

    Much better :D

    I can definitely see a difference, especially in the face. But even overall, there is a change.

    You see where you want to be at, while we are looking at where you have come from. I have the same issue, it is hard for me to see the positive changes in my own pics, 'cause I am comparing them to where I want to be, instead of to where I was.
