Default 280 to 220

I am officially down 60 pounds from the start of my weight loss. I have had a lot of set backs, a lot of stops and starts, but am finally sticking on track.

These pictures are exactly a year a part, the first one is of me at 280 pounds, the second is of me at 220 pounds, which is my current weight. I'm still debating about going down to 160 or 185, so I'm not sure how much weight I want to lose still. But the difference so far amazes me.

the thing that amazes me the most about this WOE, is not that people lose sooo much weight, even though that in itself is pretty amazing, but what amazes me so much is that along with their body changing, their face changes so much also and you guys become almost unrecognizable....GREAT JOB.....Can't wait to see your 'at goal' pics, and I can't wait til I get motiviated and brave enough to lose some poundage and post my 'at goal' pics,lol.....Amazing, your an inspiration....

You look fantastic bluerose. Quite a big difference. The interesting thing to me is that in addition to looking thinner and more healthy you also look *smarter* as well. I'm trying to figure out why. At first I thought it was the haircut, now though I'm thinking it's partially the haircut and partially the t-shirt.....not that there is anything wrong with the Green Lantern......=D

Seriously though, congratulations and keep up the great work.

Great job! You look fabulous!
I like the hair color too. I'm thinking of going darker too. Seeing your picture inspires me.
