Hi. Well, I'm doing it. I've sent off the hideous before pictures. Needless to say, as soon as possible I'll be posting "during" pictures. Wanting to erase these puppies from my memory should be good motivation!

<edit>added 2nd pics (-30# 3/18/07) - UT</edit>

hee hee... I can't wait

. You are being brave and I bet that actually feels kinda good to you

. We will love you no matter what, Nickieluv

. Thanks for trusting us

.

[edit] I just read your journal and of course it's okay to post your "befores"... that's what a lot of us have done. And actually, I think I posted mine the very night or next day that I ordered. I hadn't even actually begun yet. So, you are fine.

Great job posting your before pics...that's not an easy thing to do! You will be able to see results sooner than you think!
Thanks for sharing!

You look much slimmer from the side than from the front. Sometimes patterns can add pounds that aren't there. Maybe I am just lying to myself though and using that as an excuse for my chiefly black and grey wardrobe...

Thanks for posting Nickie. Here is to a great lossful journey. :mrgreen:

Thanks for posting. You won't be sorry because we will all see the changes when you post your during shots in a month or so.

We must have had the same designer! Or read the same fashion magazine faux pas article! :mrgreen:

Now, I can't bear to wear black stretch pants or long big sweaters......too many bad memories.

See, I was in such denial, I believed those big black turtlenecks and a schmear of red lipstick made me look just like Liz Taylor in "Last Time I Saw Paris"!!! :-P

You are going to love having those pictures as comparison in the near future. It is amazing to see your own progress objectively!

Good luck!

Thank you all for being so supportive. Karli, my feet are actually size 9 so imagine how big the rest of me must be to make them look tiny!! :lol:

Actually, though, my husband seems to have taken the pictures at some sort of angle so I don't think everything is perfectly to scale. Not that it matters, a big tushie is a big tushie from any angle!!! :lol:

Here's to posting "on my way" photos soon!!!!

It probably is your husband's fault. Truly. If I looked like most pictures he has taken of me he never would have said "I do."

Thanks for posting those! I can't wait to watch you progress! It's the most exciting thing about this site!

Yet another studio photo with beautiful hair! Jealous, jealous, okay getting over it!

Thanks for the support, Biki. I wonder all the time how my husband can look at THIS body all the time and still have any appetite. But those are other issues for another post and place. :oops:

Dede - I must be sure my next pictures have my hair actually dry and styled - I'll take any compliment I can get right now and I'll try to take advantage of what assets I may have. I had just let it down after being in a ponytail all day and it stays wet all day that way. Oh, and who knows what color it'll be in the next pictures. This is my winter hue.
