Default Full body pic at goal - 50 pound weight loss

I realize now that I was very uncomfortable with full body pics for the last ten years. I decided to post a few from a wedding I performed in the woods. We were on our way back and drove over an amazing bridge. My baby did the same thing in every photo -- the rushing river is a lot more interesting than a great photo op. I appreciate everyone's positive feedback on this site and have found much-needed support here. Especially on hard days or those really crazy months last winter when I could feel the weight slowly creeping back on.

After stalling at 145 last winter, I found the little "push" I was looking for here, the YMCA, and my favorite fitness magazines (Runner's World, Weight Watchers, and Women's Health.) I am wearing dresses again and wearing my hair down, which are both things I didn't do for a long time because I thought I looked terrible. Just some of those nuances that low self-esteem can create over time.

I have posted pics a couple times before, but love seeing current photos of everyone's progress and have found myself just completely blown away by the difference in a smile on your faces after having accomplished so much. I see a difference in mine too. Thanks again.

I love the pics~and I think you have one of those sweet innocent looks about you~which makes you so lovely with your hair down or pulled back.
I love the scenery too by the way~What a lovely area for a wedding~Your little one is just amazed with the view at the bridge Its so beautiful LIKE YOU ARE!!! You remind me of katie Holmes (i think thats how ya spell it) Tom Cruises Wife~she is so pretty and you look like her so much!
