Talking As of today I am a real person!
Since I have some down time I decide to announce that.....here I am! I finally found some pics and figured out how to make it show as an avatar. I am hoping I can get some before and after pics uploaded soon. But I DO NOT allow my pic to be taken so its a little difficult to find before pics.

Nice to meet you! I love your posts so it is nice to see the real you...so I get a sense of who is talking.

I want to post my before and afters too, but I am having a terrible time FINDING any befores. I was remarkably good apparently...better than I knew even...at not having my picture taken. I wish I had taken starting pictures.

Note to People New an This: Take some pictures. You WILL want them when you get to goal!

I love seeing peoples pictures! Your drink looks quite refreshing too. I don't have any before pictures either, even now I only have shoulders and above, not because I don't want full body pictures though. I guess my friends and I like close ups more.

I just love the radiant smiles on the "after" pics. Disgruntled one, you are beautiful. Thanks for posting your pics. I won't post my befores until I have some afters to compare to. I don't even know if I can make myself take any before body pics. I'm too disgusted every time I look in the mirror. I'm like a vampire...I'm afraid of mirrors.

I too am camera shy. If I see anyone with a camera in their hand I hide till they put it down.

I'm far too embarrased to post before pics! I can barely bring myself to look at them, they are gross!

You don't have to post them until you are ready, but TAKE them...even privately using the timer on your camera. Then just put them away...you will want them, even if it is not to post, but for yourself. It makes the accomplishment so much more real, I think. Like keeping one pair of pants...and trying them on after you're done, but better in some ways. I have a few where part of me is visible, and I love the difference in my face, etc. that is visible in just the little bit of me that shows.
