I'm posting these pics for a few reasons:
1 - Because I didn't think I'd get to the stage where before and after pics were that different. I think these show a pretty big difference and well, I want to show that
2 - To prove to myself that my self confidence about my image has improved a lot. 6 months ago I would not have been able to do this. Mostly because I'm embarassed about the before pics, even though I don't look like that now.
3 - To hopefully be a source of inspiration for someone, anyone. Pics like these have helped me all through my weight loss. Even if only 1 person finds this inspiring, it was worth posting.
So here goes:

The before pics were taken in the 2-3 years before I started losing, and actually aren't of me at my heaviest, but pretty close. That's a 4XL t-shirt in the top left pic. The "now" pics is a Large t-shirt.
