okay... so i was at my boyfriend's family's annual Christmas dinner thing last night. Coincidentally we were sat at exactly the same table as last year! My boyfriend's sister took a picture of us on my phone. When i got home i remember i had a picture of us in exactly the same place, exactly a year ago..

i found the picture and couldn't believe how different I looked.. i totally understand if people on here don't see much of a difference.. but to me it feels like loads :) and i only posted it because i love reading about everyone elses success stories :)

the first picture below was me last year.. weighing around 160 pounds... at a UK size 12

photo-10-1.jpg

this next one is me at around 122 pounds, now a size 6/8

photo-8.jpg

PS.. totally aware my boyfriend is wearing exactly the same shirt as last year!!! how embarressing!!!!!! lol

so yeah.. any comments.. please feel free... but try to be kind ;) lol

    That's hilarious! How is it possible that you were sat in the same place and him with the same shirt? That's crazy funny!
    You look beautiful in both, but you're glowing in the recent one. Your face is so slim and grown up, and your hair is lovely and long and shiny! Congrats!!:flowerforyou:

    you look awesome! I'm gonna leave the shirt thingy alone (but burn the shirt or hide it so he won't do a 3-peat) :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    You can see a big difference in your face! You look happier and much slimmer. I hope I looks that good when I do some comparison photos in a few weeks. :)

    I remember your Halloween picture post. If anyone can't see a difference in your before and afters, then they're blind. You're very beautiful. Congrats on the weight loss!

    You look great! You can really see how much you have slimmed down! Don't get me wrong, you're adorable in both pics, but you do have a glow about you in the second one. BTW- guys have favorite shirts that we will wear until they are see through, and usually our SO's hate them. I have a 20 year old son that is about my size, so now I hand them off to him. Drives my wife crazy, but in a good way!

    I like how similar the other things in the pictures are, like your boyfriends shirt. Amplifies just how much you've changed.
    Well done. You're an inspiration
