I have lost 37.2 so far in one year, and have 23 more to go. In an effort to remind myself how far I have come, I thought I would post face comparisons - but in this "after" shot I am without makeup and had just worked out so please be kind!

I am 5'11 and SW was 237, CW is 199.8 - Best wishes to you all!

    That's awesome. Actually one of my biggest motivators for losing weight is to lose the weight I've gained in my face. Having a curvy body has never really bothered me until I started noticing my face was getting noticeably chubbier in pictures.

    Fantastic!
    Thanks for sharing. I'm down 19 so far with 54 to go and not yet seeing it in my face. My face is much fuller than your before shot. I can't wait to lose the double chin and chubby cheeks. You give me hope and inspiration.

    P.S. It doesn't appear that you NEED the makeup. The healthy glow is BEAUTIFUL. <3

    Be kind... you look radiant and younger. Not that you looked old in the before pics but you look youthful in the after pics. Keep going !!!

    You look lovely and healthy! Good job! And a good reminder for the rest of us to take a few pix to compare when we have those moments of low motivation. Yay for you!! <3

    You should be very proud of yourself, you can definitely see the difference. You look beautiful in your after picture - wouldn't have known you didn't have make up if you hadn't said so. Keep up the great work.
