I new I had lost weight, I could tell in my clothes and my attitude, however when it came time to take the annual family Christmas picture I was again in that deep dark place saying to myself (I'm the fat sister). When my dad showed me the picture for this year I immediately thought OMG I look horrible!! My father then said just look at last years picture and you will SEE A HUGE difference. Though of course I didn't believe him. However,decided to just look anyways. I had to look for it as I through it somewhere I would never have to look at it again. I am SO glad I took my dad's advice I was SHOCKED to see the difference, it gave me the confidence booster I needed and now I am back and ready to lose the last 32 pounds!! I would not have been able to succeed this far with out my Myfitnesspal Peeps thanks for making me accountable!!! Here is the pics

    You look great. Congrats

    Plus being a photographer I can tell you that your flat to the camera in the 2nd shot and if you would of been turned like the first the difference would of been more dramatic. I have larger brides that need correct posing for their wedding pics to make them look more beautiful and pleasing to themselves.
