Hi Amanda,

Thanks. When my Dr asked me what size I'd like to be ... I thought "Oh, an 10, maybe and 8." I never thought a 6 in my wildest dreams.

I'm looking forward to your own metamorphosis.

Barb, that's fabulous!  140's certainly sounds fabulous, not to mention the comfortable size 6's!  I think if you want new photos, you should go ahead and get them done.  There will certainly be a difference between 148 and 160!  Then if you decide your goal is 145 or 140, you can get one more set done when you hit that.  Congrats on a job well done...you should be allowed to celebrate!

Thanks Deb ...

I did have Ben take some new photos of me on the front porch. I don't really see much difference. I'll see about having some new portraits done, but I was thinking about waiting until I get to a year ... We'll see.

Do you remember that black dress that I got when we went thrift store shopping ... the black linen wrap? Well, I drug it out the other day to show it to my mom and would you believe that while it's pretty tight, I can actually button it ... and the buttons haven't been moved. I'm going to wait a while and see if I'll need to move 'em at all ... I may have some photos done in that dress.

I look forward to seeing you again soon.

Yes, I remember the dress!  That's fabulous that you can button it now!  I think it's a good idea to wait.  That would be a perfect dress for the pictures, it looked so nice on you then, I can only imagine how it looks now, and how it will look a few more pounds from now!
