Before and Afters

I'm 5'4", Not very tall and I have a naturally "curvy" figure, i.e. Big hips and even at my tiniest I had big a big chest, so of course 160-150 is basically overweight according to most BMI calculators. And I looked it, to me at least. After going vegetarian I dropped 10lbs and then plateaued but then I decided vegan would be a great way to go, I've always hated milk and eggs, so it was an easy transition, well, I dropped 20lbs right away, and now I'm just exercising my last 10 lbs I want to lose.

Here are my befores, most are at about 150 with one where I was actually 160.

5. This one is at 160, and I am so ashamed I ever let myself look like this.

And these are the afters, I feel great. and energetic. I feel prettier.

    You look amazing!

    And I noticed that we live in the same city :)
  • THERE, all fixed. haha I never tried adding pictures before. :p but yeah, I don't mind so much being curvy, it's the fact that ANY fat on me makes me feel like I'm way curvier than I actually want to be. haha
    And we do! haha How cool! :p
