Sojourner's pics

Postby Sojourner » July 31st, 2006, 1:23 am

Hi y'all. So here's my "before" picture. Look at those chins! This was actually taken last summer, but it's an accurate depiction except that my hair is longer now.

Image

I've also submitted a pic for my avatar that is also an accurate depiction except for my hair. It's longer now and the bangs go in the other direction, but other than that it looks pretty much exactly like me. It's kinda' sad because isn't one supposed to LOSE that baby fat? Actually, I did, but it found me again!

Thanks Unca! Thanks also to the Silver Fox because I would've procrastinated about this were it not for my fear of the skinny stick!
;)

OH, SOJOURNER!
I was soooo waiting for you to post your pics and avatar!
You are absolutely 'darling'! Really kind of like I imagined you would be!
You really don't look as if you have that far to go for goal,
but I know you want to be at your very best weight and health!

Thank you for not procrastinating another minute!
You will definitely not need the skinny stick used on you!
And is that sweet baby picture on your present avatar you by chance?
Or someone impersonating you? Sweet thing, anyway!

Looking for updates sooner rather than later! :heart:

Sojourner-
I think we all know about multiple chins... :(
You will do well, just be sure to feel free to lean whenever necessary!

I was just going to say the same thing. You really don't look like you have that much to lose. You must carry it really well.

Thanks for posting the picture!! I know it takes some guts.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. As far as carrying my weight well, thank you...it's that muscle base from my jockhood. As far as looking like I don't have much to lose...ARE YOU PEOPLE BLIND????? LOLOLOLOLOLOL! It's because this big black shirt conceals a lot, and also because you've never seen my skinny pix. Truly. I was the freakin' mayor of Thinville!

Image

Okay, here's what I'll do...I'm sending Unca a "before-before" shot of when I was a 22-year-old hot thang. Don't laugh too hard at the eye makeup though--it was the 80s, what can I say? At least my hair isn't huge or anything!

I don't have any expectation whatsoever of being this thin again; it's just not realistic for me anymore. This was at 135 lbs - heavy muscles, heavy bones. My current goal is 150ish...I'll know when I get there.

Thanks for all the responses!
Ciao

WOW - you look amazing already, just imagine the thinner you! :D I agree with everyone else - you don't look like you have a whole lot to lose, you carry it well.

Oh BTW Silver Fox, my avatar picture is indeed me at 10 months old. When my hair was short a couple of years ago, it looked EXACTLY like me. I mean, I could've used it for my driver's license photo! LOL

I don't know how I missed this...

You'll soon be lookin' hot again. Don't worry about the chins, they will vanish soon.
