a year is so fast sometimes!

Options
a couple of weeks ago i reached a year on mfp. i got a free moment today so i thought i would post a before and during photo. i was hoping i could reach by first goal of one-derland by the one year mark. i did not and i sometimes find that disappointing. but on my one year mfp anniversary my husband and i were in vegas and he took a picture of me dressed up for a night out. looking at that picture next to pictures from a year ago i am pretty dang please one-derland or not!

50 pounds down and one year in (yes i have two arms but the shirt is a bit big so i was holding the back for the picture without realizing i would loose an arm)

1 year ago (well more than a year but the same weight) i did some modeling for a friend's book

    You look great, congratulations! Funny, I didn't notice the arm thing until you mentioned and then I scrolled up and looked and I can't believe I didn't notice the first time, lol. I guess I was so focused on the weight-loss that I didn't notice a missing limb :laugh:

    You have done an amazing job and look so pretty (but then you looked pretty before - just healthier AND pretty now).

    You look so good! I'm hoping to make my way to one-derland as well (you must be pretty tall because you look there), and I would be freakin' thrilled if I'd lost 50 lbs. in a year. Congrats!
