After 15.8 loss

Here is a picture I took for my mother in January, trying to do something new with my hair. Then here is a picture from this week, with my hair pulled back. I don't know if you can see the difference between the two, but I definetly can. I don't have nearly as much puffyness on my face! I don't know if you can tell, but you can't see a double chin (of course, I am not smiling as big as I was in the first pic and this one has a little bit more of a shadow, but you get the idea!).

Just thought this might be interesting to some of you!

Hooray! 3 pound loss this week!

That brings my total weight loss to date at 15.8! Praise God!
Then I went and ate pizza and non-portioned size desserts! I only have 3 points left for the rest of the day! Oh well, I was with family and had a good time! I've learned my lesson - now go on!

I began Weight Watchers in late February 07. I lost weight previously, tried to loose weight previously, and now am on the track to a permanent life change - not just another "diet."

When I began Weight watchers, I didn't do all of my measurments nor did I take pictures of the "before." I didn't want to do all the things I did before on other weight loss techniques - thus I took it one day at a time, instead of rushing into "how fast can I loose this weight."

A few of these pictures were from a few months back - when I was allowing pictures to be taken of me. But that was when I realized I had gained so much! Other pictures are of me today, April 8th. At my last weigh in, I was at 234, that is down 14.4 pounds! Hooray!

Oh, and yes, I am having hair issues! What else do you do with it when it's getting longer and you want your curl, but not the frizz!
