Month 5 Progress Pics!

As I'm away next week on holiday I won't be able to weigh-in, so wanted to get these latest progress pics up before I leave.

The old photos are from day 1 of this program, back in February. The new ones were taken this morning, and according to my scale I weighed 227.1 lbs, which means you're looking at a change of exactly 70lbs!



Those love handles still bug me, but I DO still have at least 30lbs to shift, so I'm sure they'll go eventually. Pleased to see that the contours around my body are smoother now too. When I have lost sufficient weight I intend to start working out and try to build some muscle, so eventually we'll see some definition on the arms, chest and stomach too!



This has always been the best angle to see my weight loss, and I think it really shows! Very happy with this actually - when the weight loss is gradual, and over a long period of time, you can occasionally fail to appreciate how far you've come, which is why I'm glad I do these progress shots! You know, I MAY even be talked into swimming on this holiday...


Anyway, that's all from me for a week or so. I'm down 2.4lbs since Monday, so as long as I don't go up by more than that while I'm away, I'll be happy! Pretty certain I WILL see a gain when I come back, but as I'm having a kick-ass holiday, it'll be worth it.

See you the Sunday after next!
