edited September 2024 in Success Stories
Today I woke up....weighed myself and had dropped more weight and figured I had lost 40 lbs which is quite a lot so decided to take photo of me even though I try to avoid cameras most of the time...I was pleasantly surprise to see that I didn't look as obese as I did 4 months ago....still not perfect and a long way to go but its a start....so then in the depths of a photo album I took a photo of me from NYE 4 months ago that I absolutely hate as I look huge....Literally looked like a ball....I felt it that night too....anyway, I figured I'll put it up as I love seeing before and after photos....I still have another 40 lbs to go to be healthy but that doesn't bother me as I can see changes on a weekly basis...tell me what you guys think.

    Looking good! You don't like you have 40 pounds to go, but if that's where you feel comfortable, go for it. :)
