Before I lost weight, I manipulated every photo of me I could find using photoshop. The before pic is me after losing several pounds, not sure how much I weighed then, but of the photos taken of me at this time, it is the only one I could find that I hadn't manipulated or deleted. The only one. If I had seen it sooner, I'm sure I would have "fixed" it. It took me a long time to do something to get into shape.

    Thanks. I'm still trying to figure out this whole photo posting thing, not that I want to post too many pics. The only thing I miss about the "old me" is the long hair. Between Photo 1 and Photo 2, I survived cancer, which was the major factor in my deciding to get in shape. Given the past couple years and all my body's put me through, I really want to do everything I can to take care of it.
