    So.. I am very very proud of myself. I've only lost 25 lbs but IMO there is a huge change! I'm being brave here and posting myself without my shirt in 1 pic, so please no hateful comments. I still have 125 lbs left to lose.. But oh my gosh I'm so proud lol :P It's finally my turn to by proud and I'm loving it. Also, sorry if they're a little big.

      Great job!! You are doing great so far!! Keep taking those pictures because they will keep you motivated throughout, especially in those times that you might feel discouraged for one reason or another. Sometimes, I would feel like there was not much of a change and then I would look at pictures and see that there really was.

      You have every right to be proud! You look great, keep up the great work! I made the mistake of NOT celebrating my victories along the way and then I got in a rut for a while at the 17 pound mark, I kept saying "i ONLY lost 17 lbs" and it took my fiance making me hold a 15 lg bag of rice, telling me 'YOU LOST MORE THAN THAT, YOU WERE CARRYING THAT ON YOUR BODY" for me to realize that it is more of a bigger deal than I tell myself! so from then on I did start celebrating the milestones! YOU LOST 25 LBS and you look great! Congrats!!! Keep it up girlie, you are doing fabulous!

      BE PROUD! BE HAPPY! CELEBRATE GIRL, because its a milestone in a path to a better you!!

      and as I type this, I'm jealous that you can see such a great difference in your tummy area, so realize THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE JEALOUS of your milestone!! :) In a good way!! :)

      Thank you for the very nice comment :D I felt bad because I noticed that I was getting thinner.. but I did not REALLY notice until I took that picture. Not gloating, but I must have good genes because I'm losing it all from my thighs and belly area and not from my chest lol :P

      Great job! Don't say "only" 25 lbs, it's an accomplishment. :smile: Keep up the hard work.

      You are right! The first 25 makes a difference. The second 25 is likely to be just as dramatic. Keep up the good work.
