Post chop before & after

2009 & today

Somewhere between 10 & 15 pounds difference.

I can tell a very tiny difference in my jaw line, but mostly I just think I look older.

Also, I forgot my brush, so my hair is not staying like that. :(

Maybe I’ll try using a dinglehopper.

30. Progress

I was going to take a new one, but I decided to go with this comparison.

The top picture is our two families on my 24th birthday, so that would have been 2006. James was 8 months old.

The bottom is from April 2011. (I’m close to the same weight.) James was 5, Daniel 2, and Toby 5 months.

Though I’m the same weight, look at my running mileage from last April compared to this one:

The difference in my total mileage is even greater:

Progress comes in different forms.

We also progressed from living in a trailer to owning our own home.

18. Before & After

I finally made up my mind.

jazzie-onamission:

I deleted my before and after page because the pictures are leading their own lives. Only few people come to your blog and read your entire story. So I decided to make an overview with text AND pictures. I’ll make this post into a page on my blog too, because I do like my followers to see how far I’ve come.

Old me

A girl who didn’t like sports, was super lazy, unhappy, didn’t know anything about healthy food and exercise, was overweight and didn’t care much, let life pass her by without living it.

New me

A girl who’s lots of pounds lighter, loving any type of sports, trying to eat healthy, fluctuating weight but never planning to give up healthy lifestyle, puts mental and physical health first, aims high, loving life.

Take care of yourselves girls, it’s so rewarding.

This girl is one of my favorites. Not only has she made an amazing physical transformation, but she has dealt with so much in her life and never gives up.

flashback Friday- vacation before & after edition.

You can tell in the first picture that I’m very stiff and most likely sucking in.  This was after I started coming  down from my HW- I was probably around 150 at this time, so there’s somewhere between 15 & 20 lbs difference.

My calves are the same size, haha. They may even have gotten bigger. I just don’t understand them.

I pixellated the one from today to make the comparison more equal.

I don’t even know what my weight was in that first pic, but I know it wasn’t my highest.

Note to self.

Decided it was time for another before & after.

I thought I looked really nice that night. I was not at my high weight yet.

Oh, and days that I do a long run (and happen to count calories) I eat over 2,000. Just so ya’ know.

2006 to today

It’s a screencap from my jumping jacks video I’m about to post.

I realized the similarity in my position to that old photo.

I wasn’t at my highest weight yet, so probably 150 something, about a 20 lb difference.

Like 2005 or something and today

same shirt

Flashback Friday:

The day we moved into our house & my half marathon

I reached my high weight a few months later, so maybe ~160 to ~135.

Before & after- When we bought our house (Feb. 2008) to my first half-marathon race (Oct. 2011)

I’ll make some more next week.

So yesterday we tried taking pictures to out on this canvas thing. We did really have any we both liked, so we’ll try again on Wednesday.

The first is from May ‘10 & the second is yesterday. I was feeling like my face was huge and round until I compared it with how it used to be.

I need to make sure Jeremy stands up straight next time.
