    you look amazing....love that grey sweater...yes there's a big difference my dear
  • Yes, I have all my life it seems. The clothes get smaller and yet it does not really look like in the mirror. But whenyou put the weight back on and then you look and you say " oh my, my... I did look different". That is how it has been for me. Keep up the awesome work and go by the clothes and what others say and forget the mirror. Look at old pictures and they tell the truth. :smile:

    HOLY COW girl!!! Your awesome!!!! Soooooo Smexy!!! :flowerforyou: Meeeeoooowwww!!!:laugh:

    Thats allotta changes!!! :love:



    You cant see changes in the mirror, cause you see yourself every day... the changes are not so big that you see them overnight... keep taking photos though and you will see the difference... either that or cover all mirrors and only check yourself out once a fortnight / month... hehehehe :drinker:

    You look awesome! I can see the definitely see the difference. I also think it's hard to see the change when looking in the mirror. It helps to look at pictures though. Keep at it though... you're doing great!

    You definitely have changes! Your face is thinner, your hips are smaller...the only thing larger is your SMILE :) Congradulations!! So tell us how you did it - I have been recording my food here for about 2 weeks and I've only lost a pound so far and I hope it works but I'm SO impatient.....how did you do it?

    Good job! I'm trying to lose that much myself. I think a lot of self-image is mixed together with past humiliations. You look in the mirror and see echos from your past that can cloud your judgment. Mean kids from a long-ago playground, comments a friend or family member may have made, ugly dressing room mirrors, hideous family photos. I literally missed a whole, thin portion of my life because my gay roommate thought it was funny to call me a cow and kept urging me to "get closer to the bone." I was 50 pounds lighter than I am now!!! I learned from that mistake and use the world as my mirror. When I'm on a losing streak and dropping pants sizes, I get the positive feedback I need from the people around me - without the ghosts.
