NikaD 10 Posted April 6, 2007 My weight loss has really slowed recently, and was feeling like I needed a little bit of inspiration to get it kick started... This picture reminds me of how far I've come!

Strollerblader 10 Posted April 6, 2007 Thanks for sharing! I think "before" and "after" (or during) pictures are so inspiring. Your case is especially inspiring, since your stats match mine. Your "next goal" of 163 lbs also goes along with what my big goal is at this point; the least I've ever weighed since puberty is 163 (when I was on WW in high school), and so 162 would be a huge triumph for me and is the goal I have at this point. It's nice to get an idea of how much better I'll look based on your photos. Weigh to go!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NikaD 10 Posted April 6, 2007 Thanks for the kind comments, everyone! I know how much the photo gallery has helped me... glad to see it's that way for others, too!
