before and after FACE edition

About 60 lbs difference

posted this in another thread but it's more suited for this one!!

Roughly 50lb

2013— Today
Just hard work and healthy eating... No fads, surgeries, drugs, or trainers

So. The photo on the left was a couple of summers ago when I was in total denial that I had gained that much weight. The one on the right was Friday. Down 23.2 lbs overall and back on track (I had lost around 30 from the photo on the left then gained back 14 and now I'm back down). Thought this was pretty shocking!

64 lbs down From August to March still going strong!

From 250ish to 220. I'm down another 8 since the newer pic was taken with another 70ishto go.

First one is 2012. Second one was last week. (Sorry it's so large-first time I've posted pics and not sure how to resize. lol

Whoa....I never have done a face side by side. I'm amazed! My eyes look bigger now since they aren't being suffocated by my cheeks HA

You know. . . I didn't think I had a (hmmm, what's another word for fat?) face in February. Then I found a selfie of myself from December 2015 and knew I had some more recent ones than that. The "after" pic was taken earlier today.

I don't have a lot of face pics. Sorry these are such crappy images. I had to get my sister to send me the more recent one because I don't take pics much. Not a selfie person. I'm kind of shy about getting my pic taken close up especially, so most of my pics are from a distance. These are before and after weight loss. I think it's very obvious in my face. My husband thinks I'm adorable either way, but I prefer a slimmer face, personally.

Before: 156 pounds (all time highest weight)


After: 138 pounds (current/maintenance weight)

So my post is a before and during. My before, I look at it from time to time to remember how sad and how horrible I felt. I wasn't taking care of myself and it shows. I was extremely depressed. I just want to give my old self a hug. While I don't see any miraculous changes in my face, the light is shining in my eyes again. I am exercising and making better health choices and my body loves me for it;o)(I've gotten into the habit of taking swelfies after really sweaty workouts, so that is a bib of sweat. Yum!)
**Edited to add this is about 40 pounds down.
