So FINALLY I am at another milestone. 70 pounds are gone for good, and I can't be more thrilled. I'm happier than I've ever been in my whole life. I feel fantastic, my band is, at the moment, in the sweet spot so I can eat a bit of just about anything but food isn't constantly on my mind. I've got thirty more pounds to go before I reach my first goal. I'm a little scared of that- I am still pinching myself that I got to 70 pounds. What will happen next? I'm scared, but I also can't wait!!!

The first picture was at my highest, the second at minus 50 pounds, and the third at minus 70.

The last photo was taken Saturday night in the bathroom of a bar. Classy, huh.

You look so beautiful now!!! I love the hair and makeup! (Not to mention the shirt totally rocks too!)

Keep it up girl! Looking amazing!

Thanks for all of the kind words everyone. I did in fact have a couple of refreshements before the photo was taken. It really is a good visual representation of how I feel inside, however....tipsy or not :-).

I added another photo from last weekend that is a little more representative of what I now look like. Sadly, this one was taken at the bar too- we had just arrived and placed our order when the bartender just kept making more and more drinks. Apparently they have two for one until ten and we didn't know it. It was pretty hilarious so we lined up the drinks and had him take a picture.

Shai- I like what you said about how our spirits are drowing in fat. That sure is what it felt like to me. It's like the real me is emerging with every pound that melts off. I look at my before picture and I don't recognize that girl, yet I know she is still inside me. The one physical change that I am always amazed at is that my eyes look so much bigger. People keep commenting on how pretty my eyes are, where before I never got that. It's like they have grown two times bigger. Even my eyes were drowing in fat.

Megan,

Your personality is just shining bright!!! You look fantastic! Thanks for the update and keep up the great work. What is your final goal? Because I would think you would have made it at another 30 lbs??? I am not for being a skinny minny, so maybe I just see people differently.

U are 2 cute!!!!! Looks like you are having a blast and u look great!!!!

Megan

Congratulations!

Megan you are beautiful!!! You look so happy!!!! You have every right to be happy you are such a great success!!!!
