All of you ladies look fantastic! I need to get to 25 posts so I can post some pics!

Hey everyone, I'm Amanda! This week I've finally broken through to the 130s (139.3!!) so I decided to post a before and after. The befores are around 165 lbs. The first two afters were taken a week ago, and the third was taken over spring break. I still want to lose around 9 lbs but I'm really happy with the progress I've made so far.

BEFORE:



AFTER:

You're all gorgeous, seriously. I've been looking through all of the photo threads and it is so so inspiring! I have to take some before pictures (10lbs too late) but I can't wait to share the after ones. A few months hopefully!

Here's just a picture from 5 minutes ago.. just to give a face to a name

You are pretty LeilaJay-nice bone structure! You remind me of a skinnier Mia Tyler!

[LeilaJey]

Thanks very much pixellate! I don't think I've ever been referred to as a skinnier version of anyone haha, maybe the opposite!

[Chain]

Oh my gosh, LeilaJey, you are so pretty!

You have a face made for big, toothy smiles! You should try it more often!

[LeilaJey]

Haha, nah, then you'd see my crooked Irish teeth :P Thanks though.

LeilaJey- Your bone structure is PERFECT 0.o You are very beautiful.

LAX826 and leighish...both of your progress is amazing. Incredible difference

I found one of my old photos in a file yesterday and thought I'd share(even if I have already posted here)

First one is From my High School Graduation. Very awkward teen years xD The second is from my 24th birthday a few days ago.

Hi! I filled out a 20-something's profile. I've been on this site forever but I fell off the wagon and got to by-far my highest weight. I wanted to go ahead and post my before pictures so I can start posting progress pictures! Also, I think it will help to own up to how I look so I have accountability.
I'm posting a before and a couple from my lowest weight to compare.
I also want to say that I've always stalked this group and been inspired by you girls. I've always been in the overweight to obese category and, as a barely twenty something, I really want to get to enjoy these best years without constantly shying away from people and social situations because of my size. You've all got such beautiful pictures, and have worked so hard!


This is my "I'm excited to lose weight" face. Lol. No make-up. Yikes.


Me at 190. Weird face (again), flattering angle.

I'm my low weight in my avatar, 170.

This is my face now (in a good picture, you know)


And at my low weight:


I'm sorry my pictures are huge! Idk how to resize!

[LeilaJey]

Thanks baker! Wow, you look absolutely radiant! The difference is incredible.. well done to you, what an achievement.

Welcome munchievictim good to have you you can do it. Also you look better at 190 than I do now!

Also LAX826 Sorry I missed your pictures somehow.. you look amazing! Congrats.

[munchievictim]

leilajay- like I said, its a good angle I would probably be happy as a clam at that weight now though, which is funny since I spent my whole life hating 190 and thinking I was a cow. I'm lucky in that all my weight settles in my boobs and my hips lol too bad that's not really helping me out any more, but once you hit 260 everything is curves! Lol. Boo.
Btw you're so gorgeous! I like your gauges

[LeilaJey]

munchievictim: ha, I know the feeling.. I used to be 140 which is now my current goal weight and I don't remember feeling any different. Probably why I didn't notice the gain too much. Weird really!

My weight avoids my boobs like the plague and heads straight for my *** and hips. You're lucky!
