Before and After

I found a picture of me taken on December 14, 2011, so I took another one today in the same shirt, just to show you how much weight I have lost since I got sick.

December 2011 on the left, July 2012 on the right.

I know it is not the best way to lose almost 60 pounds, but lose it I did. According to my doctor, I still need to lose about 40 more pounds.

Are you trying to lose weight? How far are you from your goal?

    Glad you are recovering well. I had a severe UTI over Christmas last year and lost a few pounds that way. Since then not sure I’ve lost any pounds, but all my clothes are fitting looser so at least I’m smaller and in a little better shape. Now to maintain it!

    Make sure the rest of the weight comes off healthy. I LOVE skinnytaste.com for recipes.

    You do look amazing and I look forward to seeing more pictures with even less of you, but I agree with Paula. Let’s not lose those 40 pounds the same way you lost these 60.

    You look great!! I just ordered 2 Jillian Michaels’ workout DVDs. I’d love to lose 100 – I’d be happy if I lost 80.
