January 2008 - Beginning Weight: 252 pounds - Go easy on me here in this pic. I have been up all night waiting on my daughter to have her baby! Thats the sweet little granddaughter I am holding but my goodness, pay no attention to the hair! It was a loooonnnngg night!

May 2008 - 30 pounds lost; 222 pounds

September 2008 - 40 pounds lost ; 212

Im not sure if I can see a diff. I posted these front pics below that I believe show a greater diff. These pics were never meant to see the light of day but Im posting them anyway. They're the only ones I have that were taken straight on. Goodness though look at the time it took me to lose 10 pounds; from May to September! Hopefully that wont happen again! Im moving down the scale again after sitting all summer on a big fat plateau!
