Hey guys!

So, I've been at this since November '11. I'm not quite sure how heavy I was beforehand as I didn't have a scale and frankly, I didn't want to know. But on the 23rd of January I weighed myself for the first time on my journey and I was 89kg (196lb) so that's the starting weight I'm going with.

I'm 5'8 and a half, and the first photo was taken in November 2011 and the second photo was taken on the 6th of April. I wasn't going to post a photo because I didn't think there was much of a difference, but after staring intently at the screen I think I can see a teeny tiny one. :tongue:

I'm an apple shape and my tummy is my biggest insecurity. I know it will probably take a while but I can't wait until it starts to shrink!

    I'm also an apple, so I know exactly what you mean, but you can definitely see the difference on your stomach. Well done :)

    I can definitely see the difference. Especially on the upper part of your tummy, face and arms. Your bum and back seem smaller too! Keep it up! !!
