In June of 2011 I was horrified to see pictures of my cruise. They were not good. In particular I noticed even my shoulders had fat! Devastating!

I joined a gym/personal trainer program but didn't see results. Then i got introduced to MFP! Here I am (same shirt as the cruise) 6 weeks in (mid October)

Look! it's loose in the shoulders!
And here is the day before my 30th birthday- January 2011. Finally feeling good about busting out the sleeveless shirts!

And here's today- this shirt is much smaller than the white one- and still has room!

Don't worry! as soon as I hit my full goal I'll give you the full dose of the carbo loaded crime scene that was my body! and the new body I've created also!:laugh: And yes I still constantly touch the back of my shoulders to make sure there isn't an inch of blubber on them! makes me feel good when I just hit the bone (and muscle)

    Ok, you have made amazing progress in your shoulders, and that is awesome, but what I'm struck by is your WAIST! Your waist is TINY! You look fantastic. Way to go!

    I was working with a trainer 6 times a month for 30 mins to help tone, and doing running and walking also during the week- just to burn cals. I do like to torture myself with planks also

    Express. It's the only place I shop because the stuff always fits my curves. Also helps to chart my progress as I go down sizes.:wink:

    I'm very heavy but have lost about 30 pounds since Oct can't really tell in pics but I'm like you I can really feel the weight loss in the back of my shoulders and upper arms. I've always heard that the last place you put it on is the 1st place you take it off. It's made me excited even though no one else can tell.

    Keep going! You'll get there! I was like that for a long time too! I still feel sometimes like my tummy is never going to go away!
