New Comparison Photos!!!
Ok, so I'm not actually done with weightloss yet, but I got my hair done last night so I wanted to take a picture to show a CC friend of mine (Amy!).
I then realized that I had a picture from last June when I started, December and now the end of May. All the pictures are separate in the photo section but I also put them together so they're easier to see. They're really only face shots, because I have a hard time take a full body on my own. haha
I've never gotten to post this kind of thing yet, so I'm pretty excited.
Started June 11, 2007: 271 lbs
Today, May 29, 2008: 164.6 lbs
Lost 106.4 lbs so far!
Amazing - Well done! And I will agree with Udo - you were pretty before, and now you're absolutely gorgeous! Good job!
And you look healthy, like you're eating the right foods and not starving. Awesome.
Congratulations on your weight loss! You look happy and healthy! It's so inspiring to see someone lose the weight, it helps keep my goals within reach knowing it CAN be done!
Great Job and thanks for sharing your pics and story!

You were pretty as a big girl, but wow, what a knockout now! Congrats! Doesn't look like you have all that far left to go!
Wow. Thanks!
I just went through your photos and you look fantastic! I'm abs jealous. How come no face pictures??? edit: I have about 15 to 20 pounds left to go. I'm going to play it by ear though and see how I look as I go.
Thanks to everyone else too! It's nice to have people notice. But I think I appreciate it more when the compliments come from CC people (you guys understand this whole weightloss venture haha)
Wow! nice work!

I'm terribly paranoid about being recognized - if I included my face, then I'd be more limited in personal things I might want to say about my life or my relationships. So that's why the anonymity - I want freedom to post personal things and not be embarrassed by them. As for my abs - they're not too bad considering how heavy I was, but I do have stretch marks on my sides and still a bit of stubborn flab below my navel, thighs and butt. But that's cool - if I put up a pic of how I looked in undies 3 years ago, everyone would hurl! I looked like 300 lbs of chewed bubble gum!
Congratulations!! You are gorgeous and looking at your pics I would never even know you had been overweight. You look amazing!
OMG! U look amazing! Drop dead gorgeous! Good job! Right now you are the greatest encouragement for all of us!
You guys are fantastic. Thanks so much!!!
an inspiration! congrats.

I thought about doing something similar to what you did, but I just cross my fingers and hope no one I know IRL is on here. =) That it's easier for me to post pictures of my face than the rest of my body. I still feel too squishy to do that yet.

You've done AWSOME!!! You should feel really great and deserve a lot of cheers
Take a bow. You made the decision to make a difference and you did it. I read part of your journal. You did a great job with the plateaus. If you keep doing what you should the walls will come down. They have to. Good luck and be healthy.
CONGRATULATIONS!
