I haven't been very good about taking pictures.  I'm still not comfortable with myself enough for posing. if you are friends with me on Facebook, you can see more pictures starting at 80 pounds lost through to 150.  you can really see the difference in my face.  

I can't wear my wedding ring any more.  One day I was buying a watermelon and it fell off in the giant watermelon box.  I  had 4 people unloading that giant box to get my ring out of the bottom.  

I bought my first 2 x shirt.  I was wearing a 5 x when I started.  

I can fit into the shirts that my friend Laura sent me for my birthday.  They didn't fit when I first got them.  

Size 24 pants now.  I started out wearing 36/38W. 

I have a ton of skin hanging under my arms, my boobs are really saggy and so are the tops of my thighs.  if anyone needs a skin transplant, you can certainly have some of mine.  let me know.  

Hygiene (a little TMI, but its my blog, deal with it) is a completely different thing.  It was getting to be difficult to wash my low parts at 448 pounds.  I never realized how much work it was to take a shower.  Sex is a completely different thing now too. 

 135 pounds to go to my ideal weight of 160 pounds.  Here I go.    

130 pounds lost--this was when all my hair fell out and I had not gotten it cut off yet, but that was the last day for that shirt.  See how it was falling off my shoulder?  I threw it away. 

And, 150 pounds lost.  Wearing a new shirt.  Look!  I have cheek bones and a chin.  Not as moon faced anymore.
