There were not many pictures of me at that weight, for obvious reasons. But my passport photo remains. 

 

HOOOOOLLYYYYY CRAAPPPPP. This was about 35 lbs ago where I started, around 165+ (I didn't step onto a scale originally until a month of eating about 1200 cals/day and exercising, and I was 161 when I did--I could very well have been higher than 165). I barely recognize myself in it.

 

I really did not realize how far I'd already come. This is *so* encouraging. If where I am now is what 35 lbs off of my body looks like, I can't wait to see what I look like at my goal weight!
