30 pounds gone and still going strong - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

glitterlicious · 07-30-2007, 04:38 PM

I've been looking at pics in the mini-goal and goal sections for a while and definetly couldn't wait to add pictures of my own.

I've finally done it...my first 30 pounds. It's been quite a journey so far...sometimes challenging but always rewarding.

I can see a little change in my appearance but I think my biggest changes have been internal so far. My confidence level has skyrocketed. When I first came here and posted my initial pictures, I was so ashamed that I blocked off my face. Now I can post my pictures proudly, knowing that I'm my way towards looking leaner and being healthier every day.

So...without further delay here are the pictures that were 10 weeks in the making.

I'd also like to thank everyone here, especially my friends at the W.O.W. Labor Day Challenge and the 20-somethings support group for always being there with support, advice, and encouragement.

I've still got a long way to go, but I'll get there one week at a time.

You look great! I couldn't believe you were 250 to start - I had to double check your height...I'd have never guessed that much.

Wow! You look great. I can really see the changes you made with a 30 pound loss. Keep up the good work and I'm sure you will reach your goal in no time!

You are looking fabulous! You have such definition! I can tell you've been working hard! Keep it up!

You look really, really, REALLY fabulous. I see a huge difference.

Please don't take this the wrong way, I promise you it's meant as a compliment - you don't look like you weigh 220 lbs. And you didn't look like you weighed 250 lbs either. You carry yourself beautifully.

Keep up the amazing work. You're doing just great.

I see a big change, especially in your midsection.

I have been reluctant to take a before picture, but I'm going to get my DH to do it for me tomorrow. I wanna get my picture ready for the day that I put my Before and After in here too!
