Are you Canadian?

I can tell a difference in your face. You look great. Although I would have never looked at those first few pics and thought you needed to lose weight to begin with.

Though I do understand wanting to feel a certain way about your body, regardless of whether you're actually all the way overweight or not.

shortcake - I bet you're selling yourself short. I've always felt that people start looking good pretty much the second the start losing weight (as long as they're doing it in a healthy manner). Meaning, when you're putting ON weight, say you pass by 159, at that point, your face is probably a bit bloated and the weight that's hanging on isn't going to be toned or anything. But then let's say you top out at 200, then start coming back down and you pass by 159, you've got this healthy glow, and you're starting to gain muscle and be less flabby and all that.

So even if you have more weight to lose, I bet you're looking good (and healthy) already!

Does what I said even make sense? It does in my head, lol.

P.S. Teala - that of course doesn't mean that I was calling you bloated. At your height, 159 isn't quite the high number that it is at other heights!
