so, i can't really figure out how to post a pic, unfortunately, but my profile pic is a before (July 2011) and a now (taken today) that i took because i'm wearing the same shirt - with two very different looks! i wasn't going to do a pic like this until i reached at least 50 pounds, but i needed the motivation myself to keep on track! i am down three pants sizes (when i took this pic last year, i had NO jeans that would fit me - i was wearing stretchy, cotton pants every single day - and this shirt was tight across my giganto belly. i don't even know what i really weighed at the time because i was too ashamed to even weight myself.

i joined MFP a little over 100 days ago - i've lost 46 pounds to date - and today, i wore jean capris and i had to pin the shirt to my bra because it's too big and gaps when i move and shows my bra constantly. so, i'm posting this nsv to motivate myself ~ and if it also does that for anyone else, yay!

I can't believe you've lost all that weight in only 100 days - that's amazing! Well done and congratulations! I'm so glad you had a little nudge to realise your progress. Sometimes it's so easy to be bogged down in how far there is to go that we lose sight of what we've already achieved. Keep up the great work!
