I am a very very very modest person when it comes to dressing myself. Until recently, I ONLY wore full length skirts, kept my hair covered, wore mostly long sleeves, etc. It has very little to do with weight, and a whole lot to do with the fact that I believe that my body is for my husband's eyes only. HOWEVER, it is his wish that i dress more modern, and I am making a real huge effort.
I've lost 25 pounds, and oh boy, am I getting a LOT of comments lately. It took me a while to see it...
Before - 203.6

Halfway - About 189?

Saturday Night - 178 ( and my first time in a no sleeves dress in more than 3 years )

And, since I've been on crutches for the last six weeks, a self indulgent arm shot

You look marvelous! It's amazing what a difference 25 pounds can make!
I also believe that my body belongs to my husband, but he is the same way - he likes me wearing clothes that are appealing and flattering. (Honestly, II'd probably live in jeans and T-shirts if it were my way). So, for him, I wear the clothes he likes, and I enjoy knowing he appreciates the way Ilook.0 -

Amazing change! You look beautiful and happier. Our men love us as we are, but they also like to show us off a bit. You chose a very nice dress, flattering but still modest. I bet he was so proud to have you on his arm.0

You are looking great, the best thing about crutches is the all day arm workout. I know I was on them for 3 months.
