My "In progress" pictures....

[disneyfanz04]

I posted this on the "WISH family" sticky thread, but I know that some poeple forget about them at the top, so I wanted to post it here too. I actually am a little embarassed with the before pictures, but hey I have come a long way...

Well, I cannot believe I am actually going to post these, but if these can inspire one person then I will be happy. I am not at goal weight yet, and actually I have another 33 pounds to go, but as I was looking at the difference 15 weeks has made, I couldn't be prouder of myself....CONGRATS to all who have taken the courage to take back their lives and win the battle of the bulge...

Wow, good job :thumbsup2 What have you been doing to loose?

I started weight watchers on February 3rd, 2006, and I walk at least 3 miles at least 5 days a week. I just started adding some other exercises like crunches.

Awesome job! Congratulations!! That is such a significant difference in such a short period of time. You obviously worked soooo hard. :banana: You have to be really, really proud of yourself!

[chamonix]

Wow! Look at that tiny butt! You look amazing! Isn't it awesome how much progress you really can make in such a short time?!

I started WW just about 3 weeks before you, and I have lost about 36 pounds, so our stats are similar. I hope you feel as good as I do, and as good as your photos look!

thanks for sharing and inspiring! you know i've been strugging these past weeks, today i'm focusing on just today and not letting the big picture overwhelm me. your pictures are a testimony that day by day the changes make a difference! cyber high five! and nice to meet you :teeth:

[disneyfanz04]

Thank you so much for all the kind words. After my first daughter I lost so much weight, and at first I was comparing myself to that picture(I was 119lbs then) and I was anorexic then. So I put those pictures away, and and I thought I am just going to take pictures of myself once a week and see how much difference there is. At first I was really emberassed to post those pictures, but I hope that I can give at least one person the inspiration to stay focused and take each say as it comes, then it will be worth it. I am embarassed by those pictures, and that is why I decided to get off my rear and change them. Thanks again everyone!!! If I can do it...anyone can do it!!!! :thumbsup2

ohMom...Thanks!!! :goodvibes

Great job! :cheer2: You look fantastic!

[Amy&Dan]

Wow, what an inspiration! And I can't help but notice in the one shot that your "after" picture shows a piece of exercise equipment in the background not in the first picture! That says a lot about how you've done it. Good for you! :cool1:

You know, at first I wasn't going to post them, but I know there are alot of people on here, that say there progress is going so slow, and I also thought that too, but now looking back on these pictures, I can really see a difference. I am SO embarassed that I let myself get out of control, but you know what, whenever I start to slip, I can always look back on these and know that I do not want to go back to where I was, and ruin all the hard work that I have done so far.


THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE COMPLIMENTS!!!!

[Cruise04]

YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have done an absolutely awesome job and you look great. You deserve to be PROUD of those pictures and the differences and I know that's a hard thing to do - trust me on this one. I'm hoping I can get someone to take a pic of me on Sunday at dd's confirmation so I can post a pic from around this time last year and Sunday's pick. I can see some difference and I have a very long way to go but I look at that pic from last year and look at myself in the mirror and I'm stunned that I looked that bad - just horrified.

Keep up the great work!!!!!! You are doing an awesome job!

Thanks so much!!! I just want to remind everyone, that even though the scale may be moving S-L-O-W...try and take pictures of yourself each week to see the difference for yourself. :)


THANK YOU EVERYONE...Like I said I am still a work in progress, but I am taking it one day at a time. :thumbsup2
