Eight week progress pic
Yesterday I mentioned to my trainer that I don't always see the changes everyone else sees...he sent me this! (two of the arrows are mislabeled, but you get the idea!) Not bad for 8 weeks!!!! In the 8 weeks I have been working with him, I have lost 28lbs and 16.25"!

It is amazing what pics show. When you see yourself every day you just don't see the changes. But congrats!! Keep it up

Awesome job!! You look great! Your arms/wrist/hand looks smaller too.

Thanks everyone! I couldn't stop smiling yesterday after he sent me this. Obviously, my clothes are getting smaller, but I just don't always see what everyone else sees......this is hard to ignore. I saved the pic on my cell phone, so I always have it with me whenever I start to doubt my efforts.

That is fantastic! I am curious how often he takes these pictures, I have a goal of becoming a trainer and this is is a great idea for the client.

Man, what a difference!! In addition to all the areas mentioned, I see it in your arm muscle definition, your chin and neck with the tendons starting to show.
BTW is that the shiner I see on the left eye?

Nikki--I actually have my hubby take them and I email them to my trainer every 4 weeks (I am "online training", I was incredibly skeptical about at first, but it's working!!!). He requires them at start up and then every four weeks. I agree, it is an excellent idea. I was NOT thrilled with taking the start up pics, let me tell you. But, I have thanked him many times over for making me take them. As he tells me all the time....the pics don't lie.
DixC Chix--Yep...that's the infamous black eye...today it looks terrible...quite an array of colors!
