I am too vain or modest or something to post much skin, so these will be in clothes. That is the only way I have anything like a before picture anyway. These are a couple of pictures taken before and after to give some idea of progress. The jeans are 8 in smaller in the waist in the right hand picture. The before picture is 12 lbs under my max weight but gives an idea of where I started. The weight loss in the pictures is about 70 lbs.

I honestly have no pic's of me - I hate being photographed, and I am not photogenic. I simply don't allow it. But this is my wonderful H., before and after. Before, he weighed 15st 9lbs. (219lbs).



After, he weighed 13st 7lbs. (189lbs) - a loss of 30lbs...



He has, since the after pic was taken, lost a further 5-and-a-half lbs....

It's what you can't see, that is more impressive... No more diabetic meds, no more HBP meds, no more statins, no more reflux meds, no more joint pains.... Ah, so proud......

@2t9nty He's had a loss of 30lbs - I didn't really make that clear before, although I managed, just in time (!) to go back and rectify...
He's lost the weight since March 27th of this year, and he's still losing....

To say I am so proud of him, is honestly an understatement. He has a pretty stressful job (Customer services, Repair centre, Complaints dep't!) so he gets an earful all day every day from disgruntled people with a sense of entitlement, who believe they've been short-changed! 98% of the time, they haven't...he gets the odd, rare case where he's more than happy to help and rectify, but for the main part, those he contacts, are unfortunately batting on a sticky wicket....

And they don't hold back! One guy even threatened to come to his place of work, find him, and batter him to death with a club hammer.... nice, eh?
So I would think he had every justification to buckle under the strain and lapse now and then. But nope. He's a determined guy, and he's sticking with this through thick and thin. Great guy. (I'm biased, I know.....)

I should do this again. My inches are suddenly changing dramatically....as evidenced by the FINALLY smaller size I can wear. lol

My waist size has dropped over 5 inches since May 1. I am not sure why the sudden change, but I will take it. I bought a new pair of jeans today 10 inches smaller in the waist than what I was wearing in January 2016. They are not even relaxed fit.

I've been low carb/Paleo for 13 years but I started Keto in March 2017. Just found this pic of me from last summer & though I still have a ways to go to reach goal weight, I see such a big difference! I think there's about 20 pounds lost between the pics. The decrease in inflammation makes a big difference, too. I'm 5'8" for reference, and about 190 right now.

Updates even though I haven't been LC in months because keto bulking is terrible.

Getting a bit fluffy for my tastes, but I am still within my target weight for a meet in September. My wilks is steady increasing, and I am within spitting distance of qualifying for USAPL Nationals at my first meet (need 1145 total, at 1020).

Started exactly 6 weeks ago and have lost 30 lbs. love this lifestyle!!

The first image (me on the right in the white shirt) just came up on my Facebook feed from 4 years ago. The second image was taken about 6 weeks ago before my DD's spring formal. At least 125 pounds lost since March 2015 and now working on the maintenance game! Still struggling with being in front of the camera...

140 to 122 pounds, 6 months.
I've been told by a few people that I'm getting too thin. I don't let their words hurt me. I'm doing this to fix my liver, the weight loss is just a wonderful side effect! I remind myself that if the fat visible from the outside is going away, than the fat inside my liver SHOULD also be going away!
