HIDEOUS BEFORE PICTURE!!!

IF YOU ARE EVER THINKING YOU HAVEN'T LOST MUCH OR ENOUGH OR FAST ENOUGH OR YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND YOU STILL SEE FAT ON YOUR BODY...BEFORE YOU GET DISCOURAGED....PULL OUT ONE OF YOUR HIDEOUS BEFORE PICTURES AND THAT OUGHT TO CURE WHATEVER AILS YOU!!!  IT WORKS FOR ME EVERYTIME!  I DON'T EVER WANT TO LOOK AND FEEL LIKE THAT DIANA AGAIN...EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll amen that one, Diana!  I hate looking at the before pics, but sometimes it has to be done so we know how far we have come (by the way, you look awesome!)~

THANKS FOR THE PICTURE!  I LOVE IT!  YOU LOOK AWESOME AND I KNOW YOU FEEL SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!  WE ARE ALIVE AGAIN!!!

Wow Diana you are a totally different looking person on the outside.  I know you must feel so much better in all ways.  I know you were always beautiful inside and that hasn't changed but I know that your self-confidence and self-esteem must be soaring!!!  Renae....what a huge difference.....I guess I need to get my old photos out.  I still see the same old me when Iook in the mirror.  I've tried to explain that to my DH and he just so doesn't get it.  I don't think people do who have never been on our journey.  Way to go Diana...you rock!!!

THAT'S ONE OF THE POINTS TO THIS....WE DO TEND TO SEE THE OLD US...WEIRD.  BUT WHEN WE LOOK AT THE PICTURES IT IS RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES!  WE NEED THAT SOMETIMES TO REMIND US....ESPECIALLY IF WE WANT SOME CARBS!  LOL  I THINK I SHOULD BLOW THAT PICTURE UP TO ABOUT 11 BY 14 AND PLACE ONE ON THE FRIDGE DOOR AND ONE ON THE PANTRY DOOR.  I BET THAT WOULD BE PRETTY EFFECTIVE!  LOL

Way to Go Diana and Renae!  You are SOOO right about the pictures being the best way to see the changes.  My mirror still has a Super Morbidly Obese man in it, but my new pictures seem to be someone else.

If I was smart enough, I would post one of my shockingly bad "before's" here - but I can't seem to figure it out....

Thanks for the great thoughts, and CONGRATULATIONS on the changes you made!

JOHN,  I FINALLY FIGURED OUT THAT IF I UPLOAD THE PICTURE ONTO MY PROFILE PICS I CAN THEN COPY IT AND PASTE IT IN A MESSAGE.  WHERE THERE IS A WILL THERE IS A WAY EVEN IF WE HAFVE NO GOOD COMPUTER SKILLS!  LOL

Thanks, Diana!  Boy you ladies have changed so much.  I wonder why our brains can't "see" the weight loss?  That must be an interesting psychological study someone needs to do.  I wish i could see what everyone else sees.  My brain still sees an extra 60 pounds.  Hmm, normal but weird!

I DON'T WANT ANYONE NEAR MY BRAIN DOING A STUDY!!!!!!!!!!!  LMAO!!!
I HAVE NO PERCEPTION OF WHAT I LOOK LIKE NOW.  WHEN MY HUBBY AND I ARE OUT AND ABOUT I SOMETIMES ASK HIM.....AM I HER SIZE?  OR HER SIZE?  IT'S WEIRD THAT I DON'T KNOW IT ANYMORE.  ANOTHER AMAZING THING IS THAT I AM NO LONGER A SWEAT FACTORY!  LOL  MY SUMMER PERSPERATIONS COULD NEVER BE CALLED GLISTENING BEFORE WLS!!!

It is kinda fun and entertaining to look at those isn't it? I get a kick out of mine all the time. You girls both look awesome.
