What is a 20 lb loss? (photo update)
Posted by zazu on October 9th, 2007
This is what a 2o lb loss looks like. I know I can see a difference, but I can’t wait until it is more dramatic. I’m not complaining about 20 lbs, but I can still see the problems and if I analyze the pictures too long, I start thinking there really isn’t much difference. This is about 7 months of work and a change in size from 16/18 to 12/14. Most importantly, it represents a positive change in eating habits and a start to a healthy BMI and taking care of my body.

You can totally see a difference! You look great and should be proud! Only you will see your problem spots because we are our own worst critics, but from an outsider you can see a big difference and you can see that your hard work has paid off! Keep up the great work!

What great changes, wowowowow!!! Please try to be pleased with yourself for the progress you’ve made, it will make the future progress that much easier. 3 of us so far see the major difference and you already know there’s the difference inside. So flaunt it! Great job and motivation for us all!

Great comparison photos! You look amazing….there is a HUGE difference in how you look. You know, its funny, we do tend to focus on our trouble spots and what we still want to change in our looks but from an outside perspective, let me tell you — the 20 pounds makes a big difference. Keep up the great work (and try not to get discouraged about the amount of time!).

You look great! You can really see the difference in your face, arms, and waist. I think you look awesome! Keep it up and when you have trouble seeing a difference - pull out your old clothing size & try those on. Sometimes we just need a gentle reminder at how far we’ve come!

You look great!! I can totally see a difference. Remember, slow and steady guarantees that it will stay off.
