Filed Under (Weight Loss) by Julie on 04-25-2008
Okay, time to be brave, folks! I was inspired by Betsy from Girl Gone Healthy’s brave posting of her “before photos“. I think it’s high time that I put mine up as well. Why? Accountability. So you know why this weight loss mission is so important to me. Facing me fears. And most of all, simply admitting that that was me at 198 pounds, my heaviest. I’ve since lost 42 pounds and am well on my way to my goal. But it’s always good to remember where I came from and why I’m here doing this.
And without further ado: (Side note: Looking at these pics makes me look like a huge Pittsburgh Steelers/Pirates fan… so hubby LOVES the Pirates and we were in Pittsburgh to see them play. It was freezing cold, which we weren’t expecting, so we ran to the nearest k-mart and bought some warm, cheap steelers clothes to wear under our Pirates stuff!)
25 more pounds to go before I reach my goal but, here’s me now:
Do you have before photos that you have posted or plan on posting? Leave a link in my comments and we can all do this together. We may not have it all together, but together we can have it all!

Wow, you’re doing great, and looking good. Does it feel as good on the inside as it looks on the outside? BTW, I’d love for you to share your story at Iowa Avenue, if you have time………….:)

Great results! I’ve shared a few photos in the past, and I have another one ready for my next milestone, which will hopefully be next week! Keep up the great work!
