Before & After Pictures
Before and After Photos:
What diet web site is complete without Before / After photos?
 BEFORE: Spring 2002, 244 pounds, Size 22/24 |
 AFTER: December 2005, 136 lbs, size 10 |
I have surpassed my original goal of 144 lbs and am now going for 130!
I am a little worried that my face is getting too thin and it makes me look older. But other people who have lost weight tell me that this is common and eventually gets better. I hope so!

Dayum!!
Carol, you have done so well! Looking at your before and after pictures has totally got me all stoked up again about losing weight.
In your blog you said one small change of eliminating caffeine seemed to helped and you thing the added muscle mass started kicking up your metabolism.
I think I’m at that point as well … I’m almost sure I’m doing everything about 85% right … there is just something small … one or two foods or habits I need to correct and possibly get back to eating more protein and add back some weight lifting.
Before when weight was dropping off 1-2 lbs a week without even trying, I was eating hi protein and low carbs and lifting weights 4-5 times a week.
So I start tri training and had to cut out almost all weights and of course switch over to more carbs. If I can find some time to add in maybe 30 minutes of weights like every other day … and a way to increase my protein and reduce carbs without sacrificing energy to run and bike … I think I would break thru my plateau.
Anyhow … Congrats again on all the hard work! You’re one tought chick … you totally left me (and Mark) in the dust today once you got onto Big Wood road … that was awesome!
See ya!
