Well I started this site in January, lost a few pounds and then quit and gained it back. I have been back and eating better and exercising since mid-March (74 days, so far)! I have lost 36lbs and 3 pants sizes so far, but had gotten a little frustrated about the fact that I couldn't see a difference myself. Even though others had mentioned that they could tell I had lost weight, I just couldn't see it, then someone suggested that I take pictures and see if I could tell the difference that way. So, I finally took a couple! (Finding the before pics was kinda hard, I really hated having my picture taken!) Still have another 50-60lbs to lose, but I'm getting there :smile:

High Weight (or close to it) - 265lbs

Curent Weight - 229lbs

Pants that were a little bit snug, just a couple of months ago!

    You can definitely tell the progress you've made. I don't know if you took your measurements...but if you haven't...do it! Sometimes that scale doesn't move but the inches are coming off. Keep up the good work!

    I can tell a difference. In your recent pics I'm seeing the womanly curves becoming defined, plus your chin looks more slender. You're already looking great, so don't give it up. It's okay if you feel like giving up sometimes, just remember to keep coming back. Besides, you've already lost 36 pounds. Don't forget how awesome that is!!!!! You can do this!

    Thanks everyone! Yes I can see the difference in the pictures, just don't really see it when I look in the mirror.

    You look amazing....just remember the mental side of weight loss takes a lil longer than the physical so keep taking progress pics cause it really helps you to get a visual....Keep it up :flowerforyou:
