Before and After pics challenge!

The best source of motivation for me, is when I see before and after pics of people who are serious about healthy weight loss!....Its so inspirational that usually want to get up and start moving my butt right then and there. So load up some before and after pics to your gallery if you haven't done so and then reply to this post so people can get inspired....I loaded up some before pics yesterday and it just blew my mind how different I look these days!

Wow! You look like a different person! Thats awesome! What are your before and after stats so far? I started a thread similar to this earlier today, but noone has responded! I'm not far enough along to be an 'after' yet-  but I, like you, feel so inspired by others successes and before and after pics!

geminik88, congratulations! your before and afters are absolutely amazing! You are such a pretty girl, even the before's..How long did it take you?

I think I have some pretty decent before & after pics  I still have a good while to go yet, too, so there are still plenty more to come, haha. I <3 before & after pictures.

I lovvvve looking at before and afters! I could do it all day haha. I have some up in mine =p

 AMAZING!!!

I too love before & afters! Keep posting, everyone!

I have some up, but I still have weight to lose so I'm a "work in progress."

Congrats to all who have posted before and after pics...you all look fabulous!  I call mine "before and during" because I haven't reached the goal line yet.  Got to update it though... I'm down another 10 pounds since the last one was taken.

The pics in your galleries are truly inspirational...keep them coming!

geminik88  your before and after pics - unbelievable! Thank you for posting them because I can assure you that you are motivating a whole lot of people on this site, including me! It's something to the effect of, "Look what she did, now I know it's possible and now I am even more motivated to do it!!"

I love looking at before and after pics too and I also could do it all day, it's so interesting to witness everyone's unique journeys and know that you're not alone in this. Everyone's before and after pics are really great and inspirational!!

Great topic.  I love seeing what other people have done. 

I stated my life change July 30th 2007.  After shedding 90+#  I have been doing maintenance for 5 months now. Logging my food and activities keeps me honest and on track. 

Congratulations everyone. 

Dude!...all ya'll look great!!!!....way to go....makes me want to skip work and hit the gym right now!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! for posting these. (I can't wait to have some myself...don't bother going to my profile yet!)

munrori, who'd have thought you had such a great jaw line! WOW!

I'm just so impressed and truely inspired by all of you!

I have before and after head shots, but no full body yet. But you can still see the difference.

Wow there are alot of wonderful, strong people in this thread!

Very inspiring!

I was a little grumpy about my lunch of veggies and soymilk a moment ago, but now I'm eating in happy bliss lol

I don't have any before and after. I've been avoiding the camera, but I think I'll take some while I'm still in the begining of my journey. It might be more inspiring to see the changes in me.

Hey folks , check out my gallery. You've heard me brag all the way along-well here are my first before and after pics. I hope these will inspire you all, it can be done! I've gone from 252lbs to 187lbs in one year. ( I started CC+ at 247 lbs in January 2008) I still have 50 lbs to go, but don't you agree I look awesome!?  Thanks so much everyone for your support and encouragement!!

I've uploaded before and after photos...I've lost 235lbs from my highest ever "recorded" weight, which was 389 lbs.  It could have been higher, which I think it probably was at some point in my life.

I weigh less now at 154lbs then I did when I was probably 10 years old.

It feels incredible!!

OK....If I answer each and every individual person here, you will all get tired of the posts!

All of your before and after pics are absolutely wonderful!

We are all proof that it can be done and it can be done the healthy and safe way. 4 years ago, on my birthday, June 27, 2004, when I was locked in my bedroom back in NJ, the door barricaded by my now ex-boyfriend, while he berated me for 8 straight hours about how hard his life was, how hard he tried, how hard he worked, on and on and on. I knew on that day that I had to get away from him and if I didn't I knew he would kill me. I was gone 2 months later.

If anyone had asked me then, if I would be sitting here, living the life I am living and looking the way that I do, I would have thought they were nuts. I have turned my life 100% around and am living the life I've always wished for, with the man I've always wanted, about to get married, and looking like I never thought I would.

We've all accomplished something wonderful and should all be proud!

KUDOS TO EVERYONE!!

I posted mine! Finally got my maintaining size picture posted. I need better "before"s, but you get the point.

Amount lost: 175 pound

I have a before and "during" comparison in my gallery.  I still have about 20 pounds to go I think, maybe a little more.
