Face Comparison... I'm still shocked!

So over the weekend the children and I were very busy... Lot's of fun! Normally I am the one behind the camera and do not get pics of me, but my oldest took a picture of her and I together, and when I saw it I was surprised by how much of a difference there really is.

The first picture (sorry it's not the best quality) is in 2009, I can only guess I was around 290-295, and I was dropping my oldest off at college. The one on the right is from this weekend weighing 236. I still have a long way to go, but I'm surprised there is such a difference!

Let's see if this works, it's my first time posting a picture....

    I can't see photobucket images at my job, so I can't tell if anyone else can see the pic now. But hopefully they can!

    Thanks, I thought I looked a little older because I was so tired with all the running this weekend :laugh: I'm just really happy about the difference! I've been struggling the last 10 months because I seem to be stuck.
