I look at these after pictures and think, really, I do NOT look that slim in real life! Does anyone else feel that way? It seriously doesn't even look like me (to me)!

The first pictures were taken when I had already lost 21lbs. I don't have anything comparable from my starting weight, unfortunately, because I would LOVE to see the difference!

In my other thread some people commented that you couldn't see my body, so I decided to take some pics TODAY to compare. This is the results. :)

    Good job !!!!!!

    If there is anything I would suggest to somebody starting out it would be to take a lot of pictures as you are at day 1 because you don't tend to notice as it falls away.

    Many years ago I lost a load of weight, when it equalled the weight of a sack of potatoes ( 55lb) it really hit home


    With regards to how your feeling about yourself... have a good look into the mirror and remind yourself how far you have come, loads of us don't really like photos of ourselves and if we have things we don't like about us... then we tend to make them into worse things. That's my take... most of it is psycological

    Great job! Its definitely noticeable! I totally understand, though. I look at pictures of myself and say "IS THAT ME?! No, it must be a good camera/angle/lighting/etc."

    Thank you all. I think I need a full length mirror. All I have is small ones for face/hair. So I never see my reflection, so I still view my body as the same.
