I do not mean to overpost, as I just posted before and during pictures of myself...but after looking through a bunch of posts I wanted to share some every day pictures (i.e. not standing in front of a blank wall in workout clothes with a goofy expression on my face).
It is a actually a little harder for me to do this, surprisingly. But I think it is because I can not tell the difference as much as I can in the others. I know because I am wearing different sizes now and I can feel it, but I look through these pictures and the overall change is much harder to discern. But I am starting to not hate every picture of myself, so baby steps, right? ;)

    You look fantastic--as does your scarf in the fourth pic (I originally typed "bathroom selfie" but....hmmm). Did you make it yourself?

    Very impressive! I still haven't mastered two-color brioche (knitting. I have definitely mastered eating brioche of any color.)
