I took a new face picture today after 14 lbs down...I think I see a hint of cheekbones. I have e-mailed to Unca Tim and hopefully he can get these posted for me. The picture in pink is when I started three weeks ago and the one in black is from today.



I'm keeping a video diary for inspiration along the way... I won't post them all, but I thought that was pretty impressive for three weeks.

Cool! Cheekbones are awesome to find! As are chins, neckbones and hipbones!!

Thanks Jeanette!!! I'm feeling pretty special today as I went clothes shopping and got 3 outfits that I feel absolutely fab in on CLEARANCE at Lane Bryant. They are having a summer blowout and if anyone is looking to buy a few "in between" pieces it's a great sale. It was also pretty special that I am in their smallest size (14/16) and will be saying goodbye to my favorite store soon...

I also changed my goal wt to 146, as I want to someday soon join the 100lb club... (Just 4 additional lbs to eventually be able to say I lost 100).

You are doing awesome!! So you say you are doing a video diary...tell me more like what exactly do you say, what do you do how often do you do it ect...I think I may want to do it and when I am getting down I can watch it.

Have a great day!

I am SO JEALOUS of the 14/16, LOL

What a difference 14 pounds can make

Thanks Jackie, this is inspiring to me - I haven't felt like I was getting anywhere lately - and this is a boost to keep going.

As far as the video diary, I am doing a scrapbook of my journey along the way with pictures about once every month of face and body. I also plan to print out most of my posts and keep in the scrapbook to remember how it felt along the way and remember not to go in reverse. Next week at the end of the month I will make a short video diary entry that will include my stats, a full body shot moving, and a quick speech/entry on my accomplishments and trials for the month (digital camera allows a 3 min clip). Will keep these in a computer file to review as I go along also. Just another tool to try and stay on track.

Carrie -

That is a LANE BRYANT 14/16W. I don't thing that equates to a regular size at another store...yet. But it is down from the LB size 22 I was wearing in Jan04... Gotta focus on the positives, ya know.

I can totally see the difference - your face looks much thinner! Looking forward to next month's photo.

I could tell instantly the before and after, before even reading the "which is which" picture.....

I promise it only gets funner...

Congrat's to you, you deserve EVERY second of this!!!

Dear JackieLee ~

Yes, there is a significant difference in your photos. Your eyes look brighter and are more visible - not so puffy. Whee! Smaller sizes, fewer chins, ahhh, the sweet look of success.

Proud of ya!
