Snapshots

Me, in May of 2009.  Who knows how much I weighed.




















The "X" I'm making in this photo is so appropriate.  I reject this.
Look at my neck.  Or lackthereof.  Look at my HANDS.
Where did my chin go? I used to have one!
My eyes almost seem to say "Get me out of here!"
NEVER AGAIN.





Me, today:



















25% there.  And hey, there's my chin.  I knew it disappeared somewhere.  Glad I found it.
Who knew it would be so easy at times?
Long way to go, but these photos will motivate me.
Have a wonderful day.

  2. There's your proof! One of the hardest things about your journey is that the proof can only come AFTER the work has begun, so it's taken a lot of faith up to this point, and you've held on strong!

    I'm glad you didn't choose gastric bypass because healthy living really is a lifestyle choice and surgery doesn't teach us how to make those day-to-day decisions. You'll be better for this in the the long run, even though it might take longer. But May is well on it's way for you!! :)

    It's good to see you making such excellent progress and becoming even more motivated by your success - I keep hearing that train whistle blowing - don't ever let it stop! I second what Karly said - keep it up - you're looking great!!
