You were so smart to take starting pictures, because now when you put them side by side, we can all see the amazing difference. And your arms are already looking much trimmer--look just above your elbow, and at your wrist. Big difference. Congratulations on all that hard work!
Congratulations on your weight loss this far, you're doing really great. My body used to look very, very similar to your starting point and now it's so different, I never thought it would look this much better but, it does. Keep up the hard work and you can be there too!
