Alright, I thought I would try this for more motivation. I am 5'7", 28 years old, and the mother of a 1 year old. I was overwieght before I had my son, but it really pilled on after I had him and quit working to be a stay at home mom. Now that he's really moving around it's time for me to get in shape so I can keep up with him. I started SB on Feb 7, 2005 at my highest weight, 218. This picture is of my and my son at christmas (if you couldn't tell). Hopefully I'll have a good during photo to post soon.

| With your nine pound loss I am sure you can already feel and see a difference! Make sure you take measurments too. Sometimes the drop in inches can be the most dramatic! Keep up the good work!! |

| I made sure to keep measurements. So far I've lost 31/2 inches in my chest, 3 1/2 in my waist, and 2 1/2 in my hips (only 3 measurements I've been keeping track of). I'm just waiting for the day I am comfortable in the next size down jeans, that is the true test. |

Jaime you little CUTIE PATOOTIE !!!!!! And YES I could tell it was Christmas !! Your lil guy is just adorable too :D
I need to get brave and do the picture thing but I don't know if I can make it fit on a 17" monitor :shock: I think all my pics would need more than a "little" airbrushing. hahahahahah |

Halfame, I'm sure you would have great pics, might I remind you that you have lost 75 pounds?
Unfortunately this was the best picture of me. I had ones I should have posted, but I wasn't brave enough. Maybe when I have lost a lot I will post them, but not now. |

Jaime...You are a BEAUTIFUL girl !!!!! And your little guy is adorable......the big smile on your face is what I feel when we talk in our regular posts ! I am so glad to finally have a face to put with the name !!
I will have to see if I can dig up any pictures of me...I always shy away from cameras...I swear to God...I don't look like my pictures (at least not to me anyway !!)
I think the photo's really help to motivate.......GREAT JOB !!! |

Thanks Suz, you're so sweet. I think you should find some pictures, with all the weight you've lost it must show.
I do the same thing and get out of the way of a pointed camera, but I can't avoid them when I have Jr. in my arms. Most of the pictures of me in the past year are with him, if not all of them. |
