    You look fantastic! I agree that you look younger now than you did then. The 80's hair is priceless, I was a part of that as well and like another poster had my favorite can of white and pink Aqua Net to try to keep it all together! I also had the short suit as well but mine was black. I remember thinking how awesome I looked then...funny to look at now though!

    Great job on finding the fountain of youth!

    You would think we owned stock in Aqua Net or something back then!!! LOL! I had a little black crop jacket too. Loved wearing that one but I don't think I have it anymore. Too bad, it would have been fun to pull out for an 80's theme party!

    Thank you to everyone who commented. I haven't decided what I will be wearing to my 25th class reunion in a couple of weeks, but I'm thinking this might just be the outfit after reading all the feedback. LOL!

    For those of you who messaged me about the shoes, here are some better photos of them. I love them!!!

    OMG! I look back at some of my high school pictures and wonder what the heck I was thinking with the perm!!! Too funny!!!

    Thanks everyone! I have my 25th class reunion coming up on August 20th and hopefully I will be at my goal by then. I'll try to post new photos once my weight matches my 20-year old body. :) If this old fart can do it... so can anyone else. Keep shooting for your dreams!!!

    Here are my progress photos. There is no chance of ever getting back to where I was in high school (113 lbs) but I am totally fine with that. It would be too thin for me at this stage of my life anyway. It only took a little over a year and a half to get this far... so stick with it! It is so rewarding to reach the big pay off!

    I noticed by your profile that you totally missed out on the 80's. That's too bad. It was such a FUN decade!!! Thank you so much and you are right, the 80's was AWESOME! LOL
