2 weeks and only 7 pounds later, I decided to take my first set of progress pictures. I actually see some difference! Well, only in my face, but still! I'm excited about when my arms and legs will start to slim down... only a matter of time, right?

Oh my gosh, only 7 pounds???? You look like you've lost 20!

Lookin good

I agree with LLV - I've lost about 10 and you can't see that much of a difference, if any.. good job

Thanks, guys! I found out that my scale was wrong, and I've lost more like 10 pounds since the first picture! Hurrah for phantom pounds!

Good Job!!! You look fab!! I can see a difference all over!! thanks for the inspiration!!

It kinda helps that your drop dead gorgeous to start with!!!!

I can't believe the difference in your face, it's amazing!!!!

Wow I agree... it sure looks like more than 7 pounds, or even 10!! You look great!

Congrats!!
I think its really obvious if you look above the knee, there is a "bulge" sticking out on the right leg on the before picture and its gone on the second!
keep it uppp

Looking good. Keep it up!

you look amazing. it look like you need to loose weight. glen

Thank you all so much! I can hardly wait two more weeks to take more pictures :-D

I see differences everwhere, in your face, in your stomach, and in your rear. Wow!

Congratulations, I can tell the difference. You are doing great.

When I looked at the first pictures I thought the shorts looked looser in the second. Then I saw the side one and yep... the butt's smaller.

I noticed a difference in your legs right away, then your face.

You've probably heard this before but you look a lot like the actress Michelle Rodriguez (Ana-Lucia in "Lost").
