    How do you fix the re-sizing of the photo so that it fits the whole photo on the page?

    Usually at this weight, its hard to tell the difference... The thing I see is the lack of chins from the first photo LOL

    Yeah I am working my butt off... Taking a break off tonight to watch the debates I exercised earlier. I did 1.5 hours on the cross trainer. Also did a 50 min walk back and forth to school so I think I did good today. Usually I do a few laps around my neighborhood.

    I felt so embarrassed going to the Philippines looking like that... creates a bad image for us...

    Thanks.. you too. I have been monitoring all your success and entries. I think you got a good plan going on and glad that you have found something good to stick with.

    I feel a lot better... I just can't wait till I start seeing a "1" as the first number on the scale lol

    I can def see the difference in your face - much more defined! Keep it up (looking at old holiday photo's hurt - but damn their motivational)

    I love that shirt... has never failed me.... just the bleach had its way with it a little bit.

    I have tons of shirts but I love wearing shirts that just hang down in the house cause I like feeling comfortable.

    When I go out, I wear decent stuff... you know stuff that doesn't make people stare, point , and laugh and think i am a bum.

    Don't you have a shirt that you just love wearing and you will never get rid of haha

    I have shirts like that. It seems I always wear them when we're traveling by car. My husband calls them my "traveling shirts" and gets embarrassed. But, I think, if you're stuck in a car for 6+ hours, you should be comfortable. ;)
