As I was looking through old pictures and I came upon some that weren’t so pretty if you will. I am very surprised at the face that once was. So in honor of my birthday today I thought I would post some before and after (during) pictures. The before picture was taken on my birthday last year December 21st 2010. The “after” picture was taken on December 10th 2011 as we headed out for a wedding.

I decided to post pictures to remind me of how far I’ve come because lately I’ve been losing focus and motivation and I thought that maybe I would get motivated by posting it as a “success” and hopefully you all will give me that extra WILL to push myself and get closer to my goal weight.

Thanks!
Dee

    Thank you! I have actually had people pass me by on the street because they don't recognize me until I'm like "HEY!" and then they do a double-take! LOL! Great feeling. :bigsmile:

    You look pretty in both pics but you look so much younger in the 'AFTER' one! Well done, keep it up. I was highly motivated up until the last 2 weeks where I seem to have given up all good practices with all the xmas temptations. Really don't want to slide back to where I was so, like you, am going to dig deep for renewed will power and get to goal! Good Luck :D
