This isn't near as amazing of a change as so very many inspiring people on here, but I am waaay excited. I've never lost more than 3-4 lbs before... for ANY period of time!
These pictures are mortifying to me, even the current.
(I'm 5' even, medium build) My highest weight was 142, I started here July 1, 2011 at 140. Today, August 31, 2011 I hit a 10lb loss and sit at 130! My starting goal is 120 (because it seemed attainable) by December 31st. I'm only a 1/3 of the way thru my 6month transformation (started July1), and I'm (weight-wise) 1/2 way to my goal. So excited!

*note* to see the full pic, right click the pic and chose "veiw" - I tried resizing them a billion times and it always comes out to the same size! :cry:
Starting:
July12011-1.jpg

Current:
Aug312011-1.jpg

Small difference, but between the 2 pictures:

High waist: -2.0"
Hips: -1.75"
Booty: -2.0"
Thigh: -1.25"
Calf: -0.25"

I see the most change in the side view (Look at my bumpy butt isn't bumpy anymore! and my belly is straight down instead of bowing outward!) and in the back view is much less rolled! And I have a hourglass shape again! Yeah!

    It's not just a start, it's a gallon of milk! they weigh less than what you've already lost!! Imagine carrying a gallon of milk around all day... puts things in perspective..

    My husband keeps me motivated, ha! If I decide I don't wanna get outta bed to go running, he will literally push me outta bed with his feet! :laugh:

    That is very true! My husband just bought a weight bench, and I was carrying his 10lb weights from the truck to the garage for him, and it was actually tiring, after several trips! Thanks for the perspective!
