Noticing a real difference

I ignored advice to take photos every week as I don't think I really believed I could lose weight, but I thought I'd take a couple of pics in my gym clothes today. I compared them to when I was at my heaviest and skating ... I was actually shocked at the difference! The "before" photos are at about 270 lbs (likely to be more) and the others are me today at 209 lbs. I've still got a way to go, but I felt today was quite a milestone!

    Thanks for all the compliments guys! My (male) colleague at work told me I'm now "looking hot". I told him I was always hot, just that he'd only just noticed. Oh, and that it was hugely inappropriate ;-)
