Hi MF family!

As promised, I wanted to pass along some updated photos since it has been so long since I've been around. Today is Day 1 for my restart, so it seemed like a perfect time to remind myself of all of my progress to date.

The first two pictures are at my all time highest weight of 271 pounds back in December 2005.





The following two photos are both at around my current weight of 200 (as of this morning's weigh-in) plus or minus a pound here or there.



With my sister on Christmas Eve.



On a wine tour with my Michael this past Saturday, April 5th.

As I'm fighting the Day 1 blues today I am reminding myself why I am doing this and why I am so happy to be here where I am today, moving forward! I find the change in my face to be incredible. I cannot even imagine how I'll look when I'm officially an "after" shot!

Way to go, truly inspiring!!!

[cydj21]

Thanks, everyone! It's kind of crazy to me that I am able to put up pictures of myself looking that BIG because like so many obese people, I truly had no clue how big I had really gotten. To see myself now I realize - wow, I don't even look like the same person! If that can somehow be an inspiration, I am happy for that. It has not been an easy road and finally getting to the finish line won't be a walk in the park, but it is proof that it can be done...and if the girl who has been fighting a lifelong addiction to ice cream, chocolate, Sun Chips and roasted red potatoes can do it - literally ANYONE can.

Wow. You already look amazing! I can't imagine how great you'll look when you hit goal. You're already SMOKIN HOT!

Thank you! That means so much. I surprise myself all the time, it's the best part of this entire weight loss journey. I cannot wait to see where I go from here.

Wow!
You look so great! You are so pretty and I love the new part in your hair ).


My favorite things about the weight coming off is how it changes your face!

Thanks for the inspiration!
