My Before pictures and my halfway pics at the bottom

I had my husband send me this picture from his computer, because despite my largeness, I was SOO happy that day, except that my two sons werent able to be at this gathering.One was working the other was with his (on edit..with his grandpa in California). It was in December.

I can hardly wait to post a picture in March, and again in june to see my progress. Hope the attachment works.

the second picture is how I looked about a yr ago, and In march, I should be at that weight again. So it is my half way to goal--Goal picture. Man, I need a good scary picture of me full length. THAT will motivate me!:p

See? I think I DO look much younger when Im thinner! I miss my long hair too. This is going to sound weird, but, when I know I need to lose weight, the FIRST thing I do is cut my hair short, because I hate short hair on me when Im fat, so I rationalize that my hair will be longer and my body will look better all together! Whatever works, I say!

added body(*gulp*) shots further down the thread.

aww thank you!!!

YOU made my day, AND my husband's!!!! He's, ahem, six years younger than me, and he just gets prettier with age.
No more fuddy duddy housefrau look for me!!!!!! I cant have my own husband looking THAT much younger than me!
 
I had husband take these a few minutes ago.

I have to face these pictures. Note the baggy clothes.My attempt to hide my tummy. But that's ok. They will serve as a reminder of what I wont be again from here on out!!

omg, the neck! where is my neck?!! its just a chin, and a chest! Twenty pounds of extra weight on a short woman sure does show.

your doing great hun!


your hubby is a keeper eh? he sounds very supportive and hes a bit of alright too;)
 
thanks sez.

I just looked again at those pics and noticed all the roofing laying around. Man thats tacky. :p

Hes a really hard working man. Workaholic even. He really is supportive in his own weird way. He loves me skinny or fat, but "I" feel sexier, prettier when Im slender.

What a really sweet woman you are, sez. Now, LETS GET THIN!!!
 
yayyyy lets!!!

my husband is really hardworking too its a typical virgo trait hehe
 
You look so pretty and you are doing so good! My guy is 5 years younger than me so i know what your saying hehehe keep up the good work girl and thanks for sharing the pics!
 
Hi SkinnyKate!

OMG, you and your family are adorable! Are you a blond or redhead? Your hubby is a hottie, I can't help but wonder what your sons look like! How old are they? haha

I admire you for being able to cut your hair off as motivation. I have to keep my hair long, I'm afraid I will look older if my hair is short. haha

Can't wait to see some more pics!
 
bedsy! whoa! not OLD me?! well thanks so much for that!

redneckwoman thankYOU~! yeah, something about a younger guy:D

gregskinnybabe thank you TOO!

Woohoo.. lil hot to trot mama! :) Look at those changes in your face, and your neck! The legs are looking slimmer too. ;) Pretty soon we're going to have to get you snapping some photos in shorts woman!! :D Show us some leg!!!
 
I promise, next pics will be much more revealing! I think probably in the next ten pounds lost or so. at 135 I start feeling confident to show it, so most definitely I WILL do them in shorts!:D:D
 
omg i hope you wont be mad for me saying this. but in the first post i thought the pic on the right was you and the woman in the red shirt in the pic on the left was your mother! but then looking through the rest of the posts i see i was wrong. oops. :eek:
 
OMG!!!! i LOVE your honesty!!! that would ONLY have hurt a lil if i STILL LOOKED like that!!! See? I should be a poster child/grandma? (hehe) for how pounds OFF take YEARS off your age! I agree with you wholeheartedly! Why would I want to LOOK my age!!! The one on the right(with longer hair) was only taken in May of 05. Seven months later, is the Christmas pic in red....Horrible, just horrible..:(

I went to crap in less than a year. tsk tsk on me...but never fear! I am back and ready for the longer hair AND the dye job AND a better younger body! Gray under blonde is tacky, eh?

lol thanks again for that. Its what I needed to hear.:D:D
