Felici's then and now pics.

It really can be done-you had to have worked very hard, diligently,every day to get this far. I am proud of you and you deserve it. What a nice story. I too have a problem with photographs, even to take a picture with my dear little girls for fear of looking at myself. Posting your pictures took a lot of guts, but now everyone can see that they too can do it too.
Best of luck.

Thank you, Brenda. I had a lot of encouragement here, and that made it a lot easier to deal with any issues I had about posting photos.

I have taken down the pictures in the original post because I've regained so much weight. I amended that post a few days ago. I will put them back up again when I can add another pic that I don't hate. The avatar I'm currently using is from when I was a lot thinner than I am now.

That will take a while I'm afraid, but I'm happy at least to think, that not only do I know how to achieve that, but I think I know how to make the fat stay off this time.

I'm in the same boat, Felici. I remember seeing your photos back when and you were an inspiration to myself as well as others. :) How about this... since we've both "gained just a little bit of weight" (I use this, because it makes me feel better. LOL) why not post a couple pix in say... ummm 3 months? If you jump, so will I. Let me know, girl. This time around, we know what we have to do so it won't really be a big surprise as to how much work goes into it. Here's to healthy 2009, girly!

That's a kind message, MGB. Thank you. :) I remember seeing pictures of a stunningly beautiful you, with a tiny waist. I have no doubt that you will post us something similar but up-to-date, in a while. I definitely will post pictures of myself, and I'm happy to do it in 3 month's time.

Some later date would be good too. :) I wouldn't like to think that either of us would try to lose weight in relation to an arbitrary deadline instead of eating and exercising in whichever way best suits our needs. In my case that's inclined to back fire on me - I might respond by speeding up my weight loss but then crashing.

I won't be back to my previous low in three months time, but chances are that I'd be happy to post a new pic by then.

Believe me, I'm the last person to say anything about "deadlines." I was talking about snagging a pic when we both feel a lot better in general. By no means will I be down to my previous low in 3 months. haha I'm planning to take the "slowly but surely" method (4-5lbs a month) so as not to rush into losing weight, only to regain it all over again. I'll try looking around for your diary and dropping in from time to time. Wishing you all the best, Felici!

That's all very cool. :) Thank you.
