More before and after photos...

Yesterday was a fabulous day... I was smiling from ear-to-ear the entire day for losing so much weight... but for some reason, I'm still at a loss of how to express my feelings about this milestone in words. Maybe after my Monday morning intervals... the adrenaline rush will bring out some creativity. I always write best after a large dose of endorphins run through my system.

I'm still in search for the most grotesque photo taken of me at my highest weight... I still can't find one in our archives (because I always deleted them)... but I'm sure my parents have some... I'll definitely post it for everyone to see (and gasp) when I get my hands on one.

I did however find a picture of myself exactly 2 years ago.


April 2007 to April 2009 - WOW - I've got colar bones now!

When I look at my before photos, I find that I sort of looked like a man when I was overweight... or at least lacked feminine qualities. Maybe it's the lack of defined redeeming facial features (hidden under fat)... but I look more "womanly" now if that makes any sense!

The biggest difference that I've noticed is definitely with my eyes... they look healthier and the color has changed... I'm going to google it to see if eye color has anything to do with the quality of a person's health... (maybe Dr. Karen will shed some light on this for us and save me the research time *hint hint*).

For my entire life... I've always had boring hazel eyes (pretty much 50/50 of brown and green)... now in all my photos the green is taking over... which is great because hazel eyes are sooooooo Plain Jane!
