    Oh god why am I putting this out there....

    Ok, so I started on this journey back in February. At my heaviest, I weighed 212-ish. I started watching what I ate, working out slowly, and just trying to take better care of myself. At the end of February, and I lost a few lbs, and went out with my girlfriends for a Ladies Night of bowling. This photo was taken at that time.

    Not pretty. When I saw this I was horrified. I didn't realize how big I actually was. So, I buckled down, and tried really hard. I've slacked off a little bit the past few weeks, but I'm still losing weight and I'm still tracking. I started an outdoor boot camp class this week and it kicked my butt! So, after losing 18 lbs, this is me as of this morning, same outfit.

    It might not look like a lot, but to me it's a big difference. I've still got a ways to go before I'm at my goal, so here's to forging ahead!

      Even if I can't see your pictures, I still have to say Great Job. I think everyone that is here always has that epiphany that gives us a wakeup call to stop being lazy, eat right and do something. Keep it up, and never give up!

      There is something about photos that really make you see yourself. I cringe when I see photos of myself. I can't wait till I can be proud again. Best of luck to you! Keep up the good work!

      Wow that definetly shows, congratulations on the good work! I realize I have been avoiding pictures for a while now and as a result, I don't have any pictures of me before I lost some weight. It's inspiring to see the progress.
