  • Before and During

    *Sorry some of the pictures are so big, I am still new at this!

    I love coming here and seeing all of the amazing transformations and reading the wonderful words of encouragement. Everyone is so friendly and positive. I have been hesitant about posting because I am not at my goal weight yet. I have worked hard, but the past week it has been so difficult to stay on task. I hope posting these and reviewing my progress with give me extra motivation to continue on this journey. I've been a little down because I am leaving for a cruise in 7 days and I have not reached my goal yet, but I will get there, it's just going to take a little longer.

    This is two pictures of me at Christmas 07 at around 198.




    This is a recent picture at around 157.


    The most rewarding thing so far is that I am now comfortably in a size 8! When I started I wore a size 14.

                      Great progress pics!!! You were cute before, and beautiful now. The thing I like most about your post is that you said "Before and During". That's so much better than people that say "Before and after". We should all be "During", since this is a way of life if we do it right.

                      Congratulations on your wonderful success thus far, and I know you're going to love that cruise!

                      Original goal: Lose 30 lbs by Mar. 1st, 2006. I made it!!!

                      Calling it GOAL at this point. I'm happy with where I am now and hope to stay there, or maybe even take it down a little more.
