and here is a close-up look on my face.

ON7I5.jpg

The picture on the left is one of a series that was taken that really spurred me on my weight loss journey. I am 5'1", 21 years old, started at 140lb, and am 115lbs now. I went from a US size 8 (which were tight) to a size 4. Please excuse me, I'm going to go donate a metric-crap-ton of clothes now.

For those that wonder what I did: I went low-carb (keto/paleo blend; <50g carbs a day unless lifting), took up playing women's rugby & powerlifting, and worked on learning to love & respect myself AND my body. I wish all of you wonderful people luck on continuing your weightloss and fitness journeys.

    Nice job. I see you plan to lose 5 more lbs. You may want to re-evaluate (though I can't tell for sure from these particular photos)... I am not exactly sure where 5 more lbs would come from. Personally, it looks like you have arrived... Great job.

    You look amazing!
    I think I've seen that facial comparison before, you have beautiful eyes.
    Well done and I was very interested to see that you took up women's rugby, that's something I've considered doing (but I'm too much of a chicken!).
