Before and After pictures...

I was posting some pics of the kids in their costumes on the Super Saturday topic and stumbled across this other picture.  It is from fall of 2006.  Me in the same chair, holding my newly born daughters.  Seeing old pictures of yourself is kind of humbling sometimes...


Before...


After...

Here is another two I like to use for comparison...


Before (taken sometime in 2008)


After (taken July 2009)...

awesome job!  I love that you have such similar pics as comparisons, too!  (and that your facial expression in the two firefighter ones is identical... )

Great way to see the payoff for all your hard work!

PS - thanks for all you do with the fire company - my husband was a volunteer early in our reltationship and you guys don't get 1/2 the credit and praise you deserve!

Wow! You look great! You are doing an awesome job.

(plus you are an Eagles fan! )

After just stumbling across some old pictures of myself, I totally understand the feelings you have right now.

Congratulations on soooooo many items of successing.  Your family is blessed to have your health back in your control, and your safety in your job can only be increased with the greater physical ability I'm sure you have now.

Congratulations once again!  You are looking PHENOMENAL and I certainly hope you are feeling just as phenomenal!!

PS:  Those girls are just sooooo cute!!!

Awesome job!  Thanks for sharing.  We all need to remember where we came from. 

Wow what a terrific comparison. You have done a fantastic job with your tool. Here's to continued successing. Congratulations. And I agree with the other girls in saying thank you for all the difficult and dangerous work you do as a firefighter. You guys are awesome. Belinda

WOW!!! Congratulations on your fabulous journey and the new you! You have to feel so much better lugging all that heavy gear around as a ff now that you're not lugging all that extra 'self' around too! I'm so happy for you - and a belated congratulations on those beautiful little girls of yours!! Another big reason to keep on successing!
