Many of you have asked about more pics. Some of you have even said that my “before” picture didn’t even look like me! Well, it’s true. I used to weigh 270 pounds. Today, I hover around the 140 mark thanks to my vegan lifestyle, and the world will KNOW when I finally drop into the 130s lol.
Meanwhile, let’s take a stroll down memory lane and check out where I’ve been and where I am now. The “before” pics were taken in 2010 and 2011.

- All I can say is a big girl has to have at least one pair of Spanx…
All of these pictures were taken in 2012 – what a difference one year’s worth of veggies make!

- Why wouldn’t I be pictured with Darth Vader??

- I still feel like the one on the left sometimes – I forget that I’m thin!

- These are the one pair of pants that I kept. I was amazed when I could fit into ONE leg of my old pants. I honestly don’t feel that much smaller, but I know I’ve essentially lost a person in weight.

Hey, I have to say, you were beautiful before and you’re stunning now. I’ve lost 54 lbs in 4 months and am about half way there. Gives me hope that one day I’ll look like that. Well done on a fantastic transformation!
