The Face

I love face progression pictures, so I'm gonna post some! Plus, who doesn't love a good phone-camera self portrait marathon? Huh? Nobody, that's who.




March 2009, highest weight (293), officially started my supervised diet this month before surgery delayed almost a year for insurance issues




August 2010, at 270-- after supervised diet and beginning pre-op diet
I had my surgery 1 month after this pic was taken weighing 264



December, 2010 weighing around 230


February, 2011 at 205
(please excuse how goofy I look and my ultra glam sweatshirt)

If it weren't for how gray my hair is getting, I'd say I'm looking a lot younger than 35 years old. And I know you can't see the gray in the picture, so you'll just have to trust me on this. I have my very own silver highlights, much like silver lame glamour glitter, and though my fondness for shiny things has been noted on before, I draw the line at hair-bedazzling.

ETA: I also just realized that though I often make fun of the actor David Boreanaz (Bones, Angel, Buffy) for his humongous fivehead, I have no room to talk. My forehead is huge!


In other news, many thanks to Tina and Lisa for sending me new people from their blogs! I am happy to see new faces always, and I always try to "follow-back" people who follow me. If you're the type to notice these things and I *haven't* followed you back, post and let me know so I can get on the ball :)

Still some clothes left, although I've had a few emails from lovely ladies I'm happy to share with.
