    Taking a deep breath to post this...

    I've been leery of posting my photos because...well...they are just awful and I'm embarrassed. I still have 100 pounds to lose and I'm hoping I can eventually post THAT photo! I've never been the object of a nice photo and it took everything I had to even make this. I'm hoping I can actually click on the "Submit New Thread" button before chickening out.

    I can see a huge difference in your face. You look much younger now. Congratulations on losing almost 60 pounds. Keep up the good work and you will be at goal before you know it.

      Look at how much thinner your neck and face are--You look ten years younger! Congratulations on your weight loss. You should be proud of what you have accomplished. I also had 100 to lose, (93 to go) and your pictures are giving me inspiration to hang in there.

              Just hop back on the wagon! You should be proud of yourself...even though you say you blew it! Think of it as a learning experience, you recognized early enough that you don't want to go back where you were two years ago, you acknowledge what you need to do and you've taken the first steps to your plan of action!

              As the others have said, your weight loss is obvious in your photos. You definitely look thinner, younger and happier in your 2006 photos than you do in your previous ones. If you've made that much progress already...just imagine what it's going to do to you as you continue on.

              Good luck and glad you hopped back on too!

                    Kate what a difference! You are getting younger . I love your hair too by the way!
                    Soon you'll love taking pictures to be able to compare to the older ones. It'll be like two different people. Good going girl!

                          Oh, bless you all! I usually shy away from the cameras. As you can tell, there is no smiling going on, but there's just a hint of one in that last picture. I already have a plan for my at-goal picture. I want full body, arms up (like ta da!) and a huge smile! When I look at these pics now, I can really see myself getting there.
