I was browsing through a friend's Facebook pics and found this picture of me at my HW of 340 lbs. I then went and found a recent pic of myself (I fit into my old college sweatshirt!), and couldn't believe the difference. No wonder I'm getting a wattle! ;)

 I had actually been trying to figure out just how different I look at 78 lbs lighter, but I've been having some mild body dysmorphia issues and honestly wasn't sure. 

I'm not sure if the photos will show up properly in this post. If they don't, I have them on my profile. :)

Looking great!! It's amazing how long it sometimes takes us to see the difference in ourselves.  My friend also posted a picture of me before my surgery on FB and when I saw it again a few months ago, I couldn't believe that was really me.  HUGE change. 

So glad you are acknowledging all the progress you've made. Much more to come!  Great job!! :-)
