I am just under the 6 month mark. Down just under 100lbs from my first weigh in at the doctor in Jan this year. I am a slower loser, but still a loser so I will take it! I have been having issues where I just don't see the weight loss and get overwhelmed with how far I still have to go and so many of my support system are just a few lbs from goal. Until yesterday, I had a light bulb come on for me when I found a full body shot picture from early in 2011 of myself. I could have died, I do not remember me looking like that, I know what I felt like, but I never saw myself like that. I needed the reminder of just how far I have come, but it was also heartbreaking to finally see my old self the way other people saw me, but I am not there anymore so I shed a few tears and I am loving my sleeved life!! (excuse the crazy bed head) I remembered that I had boxed up the same outfit to ship to a friend in NJ so I ran and grabbed it for the pic, I had to hold the pants up with my arms so they wouldn't fall down...lol. I obviously stuffed myself into this shirt before, I do not even know how I managed that, you can't really see how big it is on me in the pic but it's a 30/32 and I am in 22/24 tops right now. I told my husband it was like seeing a before and after of Violet going into the juicer on Willy Wonka..lol
