NSV--I can finally SMILE again!

After suffering years of torture and gaining tons of weight, I've lost 30 lbs so far on MFP and I can finally smile in my pictures again. Now I'm smiling inside and outside and it feels GREAT! (I used to have really chubby cheeks when I smiled)

    You look great... in both pictures. I know all about low self-esteem though. I hate pictures of myself... and find it hard to smile in them at times. Keep up the good work, though. I am glad you have a reason to smile.

    Yes, I still have a loooong way to go. I also no longer weigh 100 lbs more than my hubby. Only 50 more pounds than him!

  • Soooooooo proud of you Christina! You are such a motivation and inspiration (especially since we once weighed almost the same)! Keep up the good work honey.
