Hello, thanks for reading about my mini success. Up until I lost 22 pounds I kept telling myself self it was probably just water weight & I thought one day I would wake up and I'd be back to 262, well so far that hasn't happened LOL. Now I am to the point where I believe in myself and my journey! 25 pounds lost is so close & so it 30 & then 40 is right around that corner! I'm amazed, just have to be positive and it will all work out. Well anyhow, I don't really see any differences, so I thought maybe this would make me feel like I have accomplished something & maybe someone else will be able to see a difference...so here goes...

So there I am... all exposed. LOL- Let me know if you see any changes... I think I pretty much look the same... So- now you see why I thought it was all water weight. I'm convinced that pictures don't tell the story... its all an angles game. :) Thanks for the feedback!

Oh and btw...I'm also kind of realizing maybe that red dress isn't the greatest thing to take an pic in to see progress.

    I can definitely see a difference...if you look at the 1st pic and the last pic in the RED DRESS...look at how it fits you in your hips!!!!!!

    And I concur...might show more of a difference if you wear more form fitting clothes...it'll be more obvious!

    Keep doing what you are doing...it is working!

    I'm pretty sure that red dress needs to be taken in. Definitely looking a little loose on you these days :) It looks like your posture has even improved!
    Keep up the good work! Pretty soon you will be looking at your before pics and wondering.."Did I ever really look like that?"

    Oh yeah- Plus I'm 5'7'', but I wish I was short! 22 pounds makes a huge difference on a shorty! :)

    You look beautiful at just the height you are! Camera angles so make a difference, (photographer here) And yes there is a difference.

    Have you measured yourself yet? Sometimes weight doesnt always reflect whats really changing.
