I didn't know where to write this so I searched for one of your personal posts. :)

I lurk on the IP threads as I am fascinated by the progress you all have over there but I try not to invade them with my comments.

I read today that your boss thought you were new staff when she walked by you and just wanted to say HIGH FIVE!!!! :high:You have done awesome and seeing your pictures and posts helps me stay on track and try to get to be as thin as you!! I hope your family is just as shocked as your boss, they are going to be so proud!

I hope you don't mind I posted this here, I can edit it and delete it if you want me to. I just wanted to say congrats and you look amazing!

I do not mind at all, that made my day!! :hug: Thank you so much! That is why I put the pictures out there to help motivate anyone who was where I was not knowing what to do, if it was even possible to lose the weight, or where to start. I want people to see it is possible, we don't have to be perfect or kill ourselves exercising or starve ourselves to reach our goals. I also wanted other to know they are not alone in there weight loss struggles as well as all of life's struggles. Again this made my day Thank you!! - Monica

For all those interested I have updated my pictures :)

elvislover324 05-22-2013 11:42 AM

Looking good!!! (I saw your pic on the "what are you wearing" thread, when I click the link here it brings me back to this thread? I'm all mixed up!)

I love dressing up now that I am thinner (who wears random skirts and dressy shoes? I do!). I can't imagine what I'll do when I'm down to your weight!! I'm following your progress and following in your footsteps!!

That is so sweet, but you are making your own footsteps and inspiring others as you do!! Glad I am not the only one who dresses up randomly!!

I highly recommend comparison photo's even if they are just for yourself at home. We see ourselves every day, and because of that the change (at least for me) felt much more slow then what people were seeing. With the photo's you can really see the difference. I use them as motivation for myself and thankfully they have also been motivation for others ( just as other people's photos motivated me in the beginning. Will be look for yours in the future :hug:

lazylioness 05-31-2013 01:05 AM

Yeah, I totally am going to do it. The picture on my profile was taken almost 5 years ago, and I am more or less where I was then. If I remember correctly, I was about 7-10 lbs lighter, but lets be honest, at 250+ lbs, 7-10 is not much visually. I also have my wedding pictures that were probably about 7-10 lbs under my highest. So I do have a sort if visual representation, but yeah. Inward actual progress pictures.

What increment do you recommend? Every 20 lbs? Every month? More? Less?

MonicaKolesnik 05-31-2013 08:08 AM

Take photos at whatever weight loss you want, I did not start showing them publicly till I was 50 lbs down but I had comparisons way before that. Do whatever helps motivate you and take the weightloss 10lbs at a time. I loved that I was as excited to get to the 260's as I was to get into the 160's. For me thinking about the whole goal or the entire time I would have to be on this diet was to much but a bunch of mini goals were manageable.

But again you do whatever motivates you the best through your weightloss journey. :hug:

MonicaKolesnik 06-19-2013 03:37 PM

Changed all my comparison photo's today to reflect my current losses. Hope you like them :)

Mama Whitty 06-19-2013 04:51 PM

Wow. What amazing transformation. Way to stick with it. You are a inspiration to those of us just starting.

BridgetA 06-27-2013 03:39 PM
