    We are most critical of ourselves. We see our bodies everyday. I bet others see it big time! I have lost 27lbs and just yesterday while washing dishes I noticed my wrist is smaller! My WRISTS! pretty cool. So keep on going, you are doing wonderful and I cheer to you! YAY! POM POMS UP :flowerforyou:

    We tend to be our own harshest critics. I bet if anyone else saw your pics side by side, they would see it.

    25lbs is great! Keep up the good work.

    So true! I bet you feel lighter...I bet some things are easier to do! When I don't see change I tell myself I'm building muscle, my skin has to catch up and tighten, or I focus on other things like how clear my skin is. It's a whole lifestyle improvement :)

    Thank you guys so much. I always refrain from posting photos of my whole body (especially post jog), but I'm going to put myself out there today.

    On the left is day 15, right is day 51. Also, I'm not grumpy - though it looks like I am. I just have perma grumpy face (RBF)


    Without a doubt, there is a noticeable difference. Give yourself a big pat on the back!

    Big Difference!! Truly!!! Esp in the back and side shot. You are narrower across the back and look how much looser that shirt is on you!! (see how it was sorta pulling/stretching before and now its not at all) Great job!!! :flowerforyou:

    We are the worse judges of ourselves, we often don't notice how big we've gotten, nor how much better we are looking. that is a lot of weight and inches... so my question is how are your clothes fitting? Your clothes will tell you what your eyes often do not see!

    OK edit note... I see your pictures and yes you can tell! YOU are doing awesome!!!

    I thing it is hard to see the difference in ourselves because you see your body everyday so the change may seem minimal. How do your clothes feel? I truly bet you . 25lbs is a lot. Post some pics. Be proud to have accomplished that.

    Huge difference! On the front shot, the first one, there are little pull lines around your tummy because the shirt is pulled taut, in the second photo, those are gone because the shirt is hanging loosely over your stomach. In the side shot, you get a good shot of how round your tummy is in the first one, again because the shirt is super tight. Your stomach is much smaller in the second one, but it's less obvious because the shirt is hanging loose and hiding the exact curve of your stomach. BUT THE SHIRT IS LOOSE! Same with your back shot; the pants and shirt are both much looser.

    Great job so far!!!
