    I was looking at my 'before' pics earlier and the difference in my back is insane!! I may well take progress pics on the 5th and then post them :)

    I'm glad you're able to see it. It takes time for our body image to catch up with our body. :-)

    Building myself up to post the pics tonight...............gulp!
    I feel so worried about doing it, makes me feel quite vulnerable. I wonder if everyone that post their progress pics feel the same or similar?

    I've lost like 15 inches off my waist.

    Mostly from cardio.

    I haven't built up the courage to post my pics. Hell I haven't even taken any. You look great =)

    I hope everyone reads this. So important for motivation!! The scale does not tell the whole story. Measure weekly and log and you will see more of your success! I have had the scale not move for months but was losing inches too.
    Thanks for posting! You are doing fantastic!!!!!!

    Awesome! I was a little discouraged when my scale didn't budge, but my clothes feel a little looser.

    You don't think that there is much of a difference in your "before" pictures and your "now" pictures??? You need to take a good, hard look at them. There is a HUGE difference! Look at that waist that you now have! Look at the change in your stomach, especially around the navel. Look at the difference in your back! Be proud of your accomplishments and own them! You have made great progress and there IS a significant difference in your before and after pictures!!!

    Nice response, not. I'm not Debbie, and I'm far from a "downer". I'm an adult and know how to communicate. This starts with using english. If you're excited, there's all kinds of words to use. OMFG is dispicable.

    You're right, she should've typed the words oh my ****ing god instead.

    There is an amazing difference between your "then" and "now"!! Wait until you take your next set of pictures and compare them to the first... You'll be so happy!! I did a collage comparison of my before & halfway pictures (in my profile). That made me sooo happy that I did progress pictures. You are doing fabulous! :flowerforyou:

    Really? You choose to bring negativity into such a positive thread? Doesn't sound like an "adult" to me.

    I feel relieved now I've got the first pic outta the way! I hated taking both of them but I knew that I wouldn't see the difference without doing it.

    Looking at your ticker you've done amazing, well done!

    I am really disappointed that you chose to come onto my post for a purely negative reason. Everyone is entitled to have their own opinion and I respect that but you couldn't even be kind enough to congratulate me on my progress!
    And just to be petty.......the use of an acronym is using English. I know this because surprisingly I was taught all about acronyms at school in my English lessons (at which I excelled might I add!)

    I am absolutely gobsmacked! I just did my measurements and I have lost 20 inches from my body, it has really brought home how well I have done since I started on this journey in Jan 2012.
    I know I have lost the weight but most days I feel no different to how I felt before I started so to see the results on that measuring tape has made it really real lol.


    Here's my stats :)

    Jan 5th 2012
    > June 1st 2012

    Bust 46in
    > 41in
    Waist 41in
    > 35in
    Hips 48in
    > 44in
    L Leg 27in
    > 24.5 in
    R Leg 27in
    > 24.5 in

    My arms have remained the same at 13in.

    I have got a pretty gruesome 'before' pic but I am no where near ready to post that yet........but I will (one day)

    WOW! MY before ( or present) measurements are EXACTLY the same as yours.

    Your progress is a HUGE inspiration to me! Thank you so much for posting! Yesterday, when I took my measurements, I said, I need a 35 inch waist by Christmas, no matter what. Now I know I can do it!! Thank you! Oh, and of course, CONGRATULATIONS! That's FANTASTIC! Woot!!!!
