I keep a B&During Pix Log on my blog......

Hi all.....

I am not having any luck inserting pix here. But, I do keep a log of Before pictures and During Pix on my blog......in the left hand margin (using Flicker). So, if you'd like to check it out....they are there......

Everyone is looking great! Hard to believe it's been 3 months!

No one else wants to share thier pics?

(If you haven't taken any yet, I recommend you do. It's the only way I have seen my loss so far. It really does help)

You are so right Candle. I knew that I was losing, but I almost started crying when I actually took the pictures and posted them. The mirror lies almost as much as the scale, but the camera really shows a big difference.

Thanks for bumping the thread Candle and Salsa. I agree with you both on how much it helps to compare old pictures with new ones. For me when I am having a day where I am feeling a little discouraged all I need to do to get me through is look to see just how far I have come from my pictures. I also love to see how others are doing and to celebrate their victories.

my progress pics

I was so amazed by everyone's pics that I wanted to share mine too. I don't know if this will work though. But I've attached a before and current photo. I think there is a slight difference!

Melissa - you look awesome! I can see it in your face and even your shoulders.

I cut my hair since being banded too. 12 inches!

<p>Melissa -- you're absolutely beautiful in BOTH shots, but I just know you FEEL divine in the 'after'. Kudos!!!</p>

btw -- if you were 45 instead of 29, I wouldn't be able to like you for being insanely jealous of your tremendous progress!!

Oh Nana! Thank you for the compliments, but you are doing great as well! Think of it this way....there are 17 years between us and only about 16 lbs., so you are keeping up a great deal of progress!
