    104 pounds is an AMZAZING achievement; and you should be convinced you look BEAUTIFUL in your new body by now!!

    a couple questions...why is your face on your before picture blacked out and why does your ticker only say 61+ lbs lost?

    a couple questions...why is your face on your before picture blacked out and why does your ticker only say 61+ lbs lost?

    I posted my before pic on another weight loss site I was on at one time when I was starting to lose and was comparing it to my "after" pic of losing 15 lbs and decided to black out my face in the pics at the time....And that being the only before shot I have when I was nearly at my highest weight, that's all I've got!

    And I'd already lost 40 lbs when I got on and joined MFP in December (I started in October), so I put in my weight at that time and it's been tracking it since then...so it's off a bit...I tried to change the start weight to how much I started at and I couldn't or just don't know how to, so it's just been tracking since Dec, not Oct. And It's still a bit off because I haven't updated it in a bit since I'm trying to make myself only weigh in twice a month and I've got until the 1st when I weigh in then, to when I'll update my ticker. :)

    You look awesome! Don't forget that there IS a change...no one can lose that much weight and still look the same. I think it took me losing about 50 lbs until people really started to notice...and now with 95 lbs off, people think I'm a different person. You'll hit a point where everyone will notice and you'll feel amazing (and then you'll want them to shut up about it, haha)!

    If you are having trouble seeing it, then let me tell you. The single most obvious spot is your hips/stomach. You have lost inches and inches and inches. Same with your arms, your legs, your face, your neck. Any spot that's visible in the picture is down. Not just a little. A LOT. Congratulations. It's an amazing accomplishment. Keep it up!

    Wow, thanks everyone!!

    Well, since I posted this I'm down another 15 lbs or so....so I'm now at 120-ish of a loss! :)

    I measured myself the other day and realized, I have lost 14 INCHES off my lower stomach area. That's over a FOOT!!

    I still have so far to go, but I'm trying to keep in mind...now instead of having 200 lbs to lose to get to my "mini/re-evaluation goal" (160-170) now I have 75 lbs to go! That's way better than the former number! ;)

    WOW, You look "AMAZING", chica!! you are doing a terrific job, keep going strong honey. You will love the end results. & yes you will hit a plateau. I did for about 6 months I couldnt lose anything but I was maintaing my weight which was good. then the plateau breaks, just now I broke my plateau, & i am back on losing the weight. I think it is because now I am off of work for the summer. so I am getting in a whole lot more exercise too. but you look great, keep up the great work..

    Are you kidding? Seriously, you look amazing! It takes a lot of will and dedication to lose this much weight! And it shows, don't worry. Focus on how much better you feel and keep it up. Be sure to reread all these comments when you start to feel down on yourself.
