you look amazing! Great job.

Your stats are about the same as mine, and yes I agree 10-12 pounds makes a huge difference when you're also losing inches/building muscle. You look like you've lost 20 pounds. :carrot:

People say to me "wow, how much have you lost?" and they're surprised when I tell them 10p. They were expecting much more.

Good feeling indeed! Congrats!

Wow there IS a difference, and thanks for posting! It's great motivation for those last - (or first! or only!) 10 lbs.

You look great!

And thanks for starting this thread again - I need it!!!

Great job, Stephanie! I actually was thinking about making a thread just like this because I noticed how much of a difference 10lbs made on my own body after I compared progress pics! It really is pretty crazy.

Love the smug face! Nt really smug, though...thrilled! You deserve that big, cheesy grin. :)

Love the new profile pic. You look AMAZING. Such an inspiration. I remember when you were struggling in August. It's awesome to see someone come out of those struggles so victorious.

Love the big smile! :D

Only, really, I'm not here just to have a pity party. That 12 lbs is a huge difference! You look fabulous. You're a wonderful inspiration, Lockitup. :D

The time frame is sooooooo not important though!!! I feel bad that you feel bad about that! There really is no comparing everyone is on a totally different journey. It doesn't really matter how long it takes, look how far you've come!!!

You radiate confidence!!
your body composition looks so much leaner and well defined.
hard to believe 10 lbs can make that much difference.
Are you do weight training ?

I would like to say yes I weight train, but it seems to be pretty sporadic. I will do really good for like 4 to 6 weeks, then I will totally not go to the gym at ALL for weeks on end, or just randomly here and there. In the time frame between those two pictures, I probably hit the gym only around 5 times.

Looking great! Thanks for this inspiration on how much 10lbs can make a difference. It's doable for all of us!

You look fab, well done :)

I can't wait to drop these final pounds myself, I'm hoping for my final 16 pounds to make a big difference.

Congrats :carrot:

You look amazing. 10 pounds isn't even a blip on the radar for me yet (I couldn't even see a difference in my face until I hit 50) but you're definitely giving me something to aspire to!

kelleyb 11-13-2012 04:44 PM

Awesome job! Looks like plenty of body recomp has been going on lately... thumbs up to you!

darius 11-13-2012 05:28 PM

Holy cow Steph you look terrific!

mimsyborogoves 11-13-2012 05:30 PM

I'm sharing my photos by request, and I'm doing bra/underwear pics cause when I compared myself in clothes you couldn't see the difference as much as you can w/o. So here we go, please excuse the mess in the background!:
