I’ve now officially passed the twenty-five pound mark and figured it is time to post the obligatory before and after pictures. I can see the tell-tale signs of my uncomfortable self in the before pictures. Bold colors, statement jewelry, layers. I know that I still have far to go to reach my goals for both my weight and my health, but I love seeing the progress between the pictures taken at a blog conference in the summer of 2010 and the ones taken at a blog conference last weekend.
