Now here I stand. I've completed one solid month of proper dieting and exercise; doing it the right way!! I'm so proud of this accomplishment because it gives me a little more hope that I will make it to the finish line. This is unchartered territory for me and so far, I'm excited, nervous, proud, pumped and I'm loving it!!
Anyway, I give you my first anniversary pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please be honest guys!! If you don't see much of a difference tell me!! Tell me!! Personally I see a huge difference but I won't say where until a later post (I'm quite emotional today). I just want to see if you guys notice a difference or same as me, or not at all... I am very happy with the progress thus far!!! Wow and to think, I lost only (not ONLY, but in the grand scheme of things - 16 pounds)!! What a difference 16 pounds makes.

HOLY CRAP - Yes you can notice - Your arms touched the side of you now you can see wall and the side view your arms look a whole lot smaller now - There's my brutal honesty and trust me - ask anyone who knows me you want honesty I wont lie (I hate that) - I was not expecting (to be honest) to see a difference - i mean come on 16 lbs when you want to lose 101 - but boy Joania what a motivation for you and your followers the change is huge! I can't wait for next month.

Yes! i see a difference in the stomach and obliques...but wait a minute, I thought those were the most difficult places to lose? Keep it up Joan, looking good and hey at the rate you are going by next month we will have a little unsticking LOL ( inside joke)
Hey,
You are doing excellently. Don't let anything make your determination waiver. The difference is clear to me in these pics. Your mid section is leaner and your glutes and thighs. Remember to focus most on keeping to the routine, its a lifestyle more than anything else. Keep it up my friend.
WOW...look at that waist! You GO girl!!
So happy for you, that's amazing work Joania! I'm SO very proud of you!

I was greeted by Patti LaBelle singing "Somebody Loves You Baby" ... just what I needed to hear!
Joania, I'd say that it looks like you've lost WAY MORE than 16 lbs judging by your pics. It shows all over ~~ from your face, neck, boobs (sorry), abdomen, back, legs......
WOW!
I know exactly how you feel about THIS time being THE time that it's working. I'm so very happy for you!!!
I love your "2009 is 2000 MINE"
What a neat person you are!
I'm looking forward to sharing in your success!
16 pounds makes a lot of difference apparently. This is a good start and keep on keeping on!

I can definitely tell a difference! Wow! What an incentive to lose 16 pounds! :o)
THANK YOU EVERYONE!! I'm on such a wonderful high right now (No, i did not smoke anything)!!!!!! It's awesome.

Your looking good..I see a big difference. Keep up the hard work. Once you are determined to achieve your goal, nothing and nobody can get in the way...so what are you eating and how are your workouts structured?
