    1 month in, 12 pounds down. 3/12/08

    This is a total re-edit of the picture and the message... the responses below are for the first pic and one dated March 12 (which isn't there now). Now, there is a 3rd for May!

    My total inches lost? About 17. I feel a lot leaner, but I still have 40 pounds to go! Can you believe the difference? I've lost 3.5 inches around my butt/underbelly! Yeah I am my own cheerleader today!
    There is also a huge difference in my neck. I went shopping today to get summer clothes, and I was able to find a couple of size 16 capris at JC Penney's, not Lane Bryant! (They have great clothes, though.)

    ( I am sure I"d look a lot different if I'd been working out. I confess, I haven't yet, outside of doing stairs at work. )

                I see it in the back, tush, and midriff. It is amazing the changes that take place so quickly. Keep it up. Another 12 lbs, and not only will everybody else see the difference, but you will see it in the mirror for yourself. Great feeling to know that you can do something about it, isn't it!

                  Another 12 pounds, and I'll be celebrating for sure!! That will be almost halfway to goal for me.

                      However, now I see a huge difference in my back! There was a big fat pad behind my neck that made me feel all huched up... Look, it's not there! (Well, it's still partially there. hee hee. I'm not used to thinking how slim I could possibly get.) And just overall on my back is like a slice was carved off! So, that's where I've been losing from. I was wondering why I'm still in my fat pants!

                      I need a little boost, so can you see it?

                      Oh yeah DEFINATELY!!!! And I totally understand about the fat pants. I am still in the same size but my shirts are loser cuz I lost in my back, which is fine by me. YOU LOOK AWESOME! KUTGW!!!!
