Hey all!

Haven't posted to the boards at all yet, however today I have finally noticed a difference. I have the same shirt in green and black, and am wearing the black one. I was sifting through wedding photos and saw myself wearing the green version the day before my wedding... the difference is making me smile:

August 2010 (highest weight... probably about 290)

And now (May 2011, weighing 233)

Keep smiling!

    Thanks everyone... I didn't see it myself until I was wearing the same shirt! Strange how our perception of ourselves is so different than reality sometimes!

    Sometimes you just need other people to point it out, or to compare with clothing like that :) when I lost forty pounds I only dropped one size, so I was feeling rather blah about it, but everyone complimented me so I knew I looked different. Way to go, stick to your guns and keep at it, looking good! :)
