Before and After

Some have asked for before and after pictures of me. I have to be honest, it is hard to come up with a before picture because I always made sure I was the one taking the photos. That way, no one could capture me on film. So here is what I looked like in June of last year about three months before I started Weight Watchers and exercising:

And here I am on Sunday with my daughter after her performance:

Can you see the difference?

You are still a beautiful woman but leaner. Yes, I can tell a difference and want to do the same for myself.

Okay....I need to take a deep breath and exercise!!

I was reading this post in my Google Reader and only saw the top (before) photo first. I was thinking it was the after photo and thought you looked great in it!!! Then I saw the after photo, and WOW!!!! You are amazing and a true inspiration!!! I'm feeling a bit down today because I gained 0.8 this week, but now I feel ready to conquer the world (actually just my weight...LOL) again! Thanks my friend!!! So proud of you!!!!

You look great! In the first pic, though, I would've never thought you would have needed to lose 70+ pounds! You look wonderful, great job!

Brandy said...

I agree with everyone else; you looked great before and you look great now! I can tell in the face but you can really see in those guns you are showing off!

Pam said...

I think you looked good before too. Awesome job on the weight loss.

You are adorable in both pictures but I have to say you look rockin' hot! Congrats! I agree with Much more than Mommy, you definately hid 70+ pounds well!

I also thought at first the top photo was the 'after' because my impression was that it wasn't a photo of someone who was overweight. Heck, I'm way bigger than THAT. But when I scrolled down I was like WOWSA. You look like a whole different person! I am amazed.

Stephanie M. Page said...

look at you! You go girl!!

Anna said...

You look amazing, when I saw your picture in google reader, I thought that the before and after was about how you looked when you were younger and the second one is your before (younger) picture.
I could just say you look 10years younger. Good for you.

A Modern Mother said...

Fantastic! I don't think I've ever seen your photo -- or at least one close up. You look just as I imagined you!

Pink Haired Momma said...

You look so fabulous! WOW! You are so inspiring. I just put my candy bar in the trash! :)

Personalized Sketches and Sentiments said...

Beautiful in both! Honestly!!!! I had to laugh at Pink Haired Momma's comment when she said that she "just put my candy bar in the trash!"
And here I am looking at your post, with a plate beside me that had a piece of cake on it! ...had is the key word! *sigh*

Blessings & Aloha!
(It's been a bit since I have been able to stop and say hi!)
