Picture on the left was taken last night. Picture on the right was me on the 4th of July this year. I was looking at something on my facebook page when I saw the pic from the 4th and was actually surprised because I didn't think I had any real "before" pictures. I quickly snapped a pic and put them side by side and what a difference!! I've lost about 18 pounds since then, 27 more to go!!

    great job ! how did you do it ?

    Just by logging EVERYTHING I eat and keeping it at 1200 calories a day! I'm a creature of habit so I usually have a yogurt for breakfast, a sandwich for lunch and a salad for dinner. Fruit or veggies for snacks but only if I'm hungry. I gave up beer (it blows me up like a balloon!). It was hard at first but once I started fitting into clothes I haven't been able to wear in over a year it's been a lot easier to stick with!!

    I agree that it definitely looks like more than an 18 pound weight loss! Proof that the number on the scale doesn't always reflect how your body looks. Nice work! :) You look awesome!

    Wow. That's impressive. Mine has been stalled. I have a five on the old baby girl and I had surgery a month ago. So I had to stop working out for a but.
    Back on track. Looking for friends to motive me and for me to be a mmotivation.
    Great job.

    I accepted your friend request caterpillar :) and thanks again zazazik! My biggest motivation was I knew I was going wedding dress shopping on Sept 6th. I haven't cheated AT ALL. This is how I looked last Saturday, I can't wait to see how good it looks in March!!
