  • my "before" picture...

    this was taken in the summer of last year but I'm still around the same weight, since this picture really shows how I look (instead of my usual angled pictures - see avatar), I've decided to make this my official "fat picture" that I'll look back on next year when I'm at my goal weight! so stay tuned for progress pictures... I'm going on day 7 (it's after midnight here) of induction and I plan to stay on induction for the remainder of this year.

    *picture edited out* sorry.



    I'll update with a new picture in a few months to compare with my 'before' picture!

          Congrats on your decision to start this WOE. It's the best.

          But I hope you didn't mean to say you were going to stay on induction the rest of the "year". Induction is usually two weeks and then you can start moving up the rungs and add variety. It helps you not get bored with your food choices and everyone says your weight loss can actually increase when you start moving through the rungs.

          Good luck to you.

            Great job on having "before pics". I never really had one that was like, a *real* one, and now I kind of regret it... while there are a couple pictures around, it's not like I can just find one anywhere and be like, and lookit *this* and whip it out and be like, ha! yanno??

            I do have to agree with Dream to an extent... I don't think people should be staying on induction longer than 6 months... and a lot of times if you hit a stall, moving up and adding more carbs will help break it... plus going up the rungs gives a lot more choices. I've done it both ways and had results both ways, but not moving up got me falling off the wagon really fast once I hit goal...

            Anyway, What are you doing for exercise?! It makes *ALL* the difference in the world, it's really amazing.

            Oh, and your hair reminded me I need to redo mine tonight... yours isn't Cherry Bomb, is it?

              Thats great your on the road to being healthy. I really need to get a better before picture. I norrmally HIDE from the camera and Im to shy to let ANYONE see the "real" me as I hide it very well. I wish I was as brave as you ladies, kudos to you both for having the b*lls to put yourself out there. I know you ladies will do very well and I cant wait to see the update pictures and progress you both make..

                Welcome to you both and well done for being brave, we all know how you feel here.
                I'm with Lyssie in that I wish I had taken one right at the start. I always though oh well, what's 2 weeks, I'll give it a try and then before you know it you're off and running and you aren't that weight anymore (which is a good thing)

                I can't wait to see your progress pictures and I wish you all the best and thanks for sharing with us

                        I have before pictures, but I look better with clothes ON (There went my strip tease career) I haven't even shown my S.O. the pics I took in a bra-like top and spandex bottoms...not a pretty sight ....
