I agree 100%. Pictures show you how you really look and most people become motivated after they see themselves.Many over weight people,like myself, choose not to look in the mirror,denial denial denial!
I agree 12 lbs is a huge change for some people.I am about the same shape as you and I weigh 175,just a few lbs more than you did,and for 10 years I was 150 and very happy.25 lbs has changed me significantly,both physically and emotionally!
I just joined today and cannot wait to see changes thru photos and not so much the scale,that evil evil scale!
I really needed to see this today. can I ask how tall you are? your body is quite similar to mine and seeing how great you look has made me feel so much better. I am at an all time high of 168, and would like t get to 140. Will take pictures immediately. Thanks for sharing!
That settles it I am grabbing my camera today and documenting!!!! you may be down 12# but you must have lost more fat#'s and gained some muscle#'s. Your legs and arms are so much more defined.
Thanks for the inspiration.

WOW WEE they would have been fabulous to record. I am on a similar weight loss levels. Start 166 current 139. I reached my goal yesterday!!! but I reset another goal of 136. It took me a lot the last month to stay down. I kept on having treats. Simple carbs. are my nemesis. Exersice is the best maintenance part. Fit day has been the most important part of maintaining. thanks for the inspiration
this is it, i'm grabing my camera, hubby will be in for a good surprise, finding me taking pictures of myself in bikini, but oh well, i need that visualization for times of distress.
