Wednesday, Aug 4 2010 - Same dress
View PLATEOFSTARS's food & exercise for this day
I've kept very few of my clothes from when I was bigger... but I have a sundress (more like a wrap dress) that I've kept because it technically still fits... although I hadn't worn it out since I've lost weight.
I took it with my on my trip to Montreal on the weekend and just yesterday a picture of me in it appeared on Facebook. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it!! How TINY I look in it!!
I mean, I knew when I put it on that there was extra space in it, but I didn't realize just how MUCH extra space!
I dug up an old picture from April 2008 wearing the same dress and pasted the pictures side by side. Amazing.
I am absolutely shocked.
I have printed and hung the picture in my office cubicle to remind me of how hard I've worked and that there's no turning back.

you look fantastic! /// i was very similar to you, starting at 230 with a goal of 140, and i wish i had kept clothes from when i was bigger to use as a measurement. things like that are such a great way to really see how far you've come, and you've definitely come far enough that you deserve to see how much your hard work has paid off!

You look amazing! I think you look so pretty in both pics. but you can sure see the difference. If it wasn't for the pattern you wouldn't know it was the same dress.
