I don't look like "me" anymore... and I'm ok with that!

  • Popular Post

I am 16 months out and down 140 lbs. I went from 334 to 194 and LOVE IT! It has been brought to my attention that I no longer look like the woman I used to be. Some say I look younger, others say it looks like it could be my sister but definitely not me.. I love it! I feel like a different person too. There are so many things I can do that I never did before (as I sit with my knees to my chest on the couch comfortably while typing this... ummm can you say MAJOR NSV?????) I would like to lose another 10 lbs or so but I am totally happy where I am now.

Feel free to share your face to face pictures below!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You still look like you, just a happier, healthier, more confident version! You are beautiful!

Congrats on your success, keep up the great work.

Maybe you are actually looking like you for the first time...

Maybe what you looked like before was NOT you...

Maybe this is you and you've just gotta get used to it...

Maybe I'm really tired and have not actually made any sense...

Congrats on your journey!
