    Half-way there: 55 down, 55 to go.

    So yesterday I cheated for the first time in a couple of months, and today I was feeling hungry and discouraged, thinking about all I still have left to lose. So, I took these "during" pictures this morning. I feel a little better now seeing my progress. Still lots of work to do, but I'm getting there!

              You are looking good! When you get discouraged come back and read all the wonderful comments about your pics that you worked hard for and deserve. Look at how much you have lost in your arms and tummy! Excellent work!

                Thanks so much you guys. This was a great thing for me to do today. Pulled me out of my funk and gave me reason to celebrate my progress -- and focus on working hard to create more "after" photos.
