This was me on July 2, 2011. This was before I had joined MFP, before I had decided to improve my lifestyle. It was an open house day at my martial arts school, and they took this picture of me.

I was about 233 pounds here.

A little later that month, my friend Heather told me about MFP. I was tired of being big and chunky, of having to buy oversize clothes. So I joined. I've been busting *kitten*, eating right and exercising. But, in reality, I never really saw a difference.

Until today.

This was taken this morning.

Holy crap. Would you look at that. You can't even see my whole body and you can tell I'm smaller!


I couldn't get the pics to post...><!

    Your tags were right the first time, you just need to use lowercase letters for img and /img.

    You look fantastic!! There is a very distinct difference. Keep up the great work!

    No problem :). I think you can re-size the image on photobucket's website, which should then help shrink the image here so we can see you in the before shot.

    Whooooaaaa! Definitely a difference. Your overall look has changed dramatically! Nice :D
  • :happy: See? It's so damn funny how we don't notice a difference until we see two pictures next to each other! Amber, you've been doing a great job. Don't you dare sell yourself short!
