If you've been reading my blog since the Spring, you know Dennis and I have embarked on a weight loss journey. Well, I've had several readers asking me for photos.
We've been on Weight Watchers since April 30th, 2011, and it's been a life-changing experience.
Are you ready for some before and after photos? In fact, seeing this before photo was what shocked me into realizing how big I really was. You don't know how long it's taken me to get the courage to post this picture.
Here's the before..........
And here's the after...........
Dennis has lost 28 lbs so far, and I have lost 43 lbs. The journey isn't over, but it feels wonderful to not be in plus size clothing anymore, to climb stairs without getting winded and just knowing that I am eating healthier.
Thanks to everyone for their love and support!!!! I'll be back soon with some stamped pretties!!!!
Patti, Thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures. I am so proud of you. I just started WW in mid Oct and was doing great (-10) but have really struggled this week. I am now inspired again! Thank you!

Patti,
You and Dennis look fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I never thought that you were "extra heavy"....I could not have looked like that at you as I just knew you as the energetic, creative , happy person that you always are. But I must say, you look "marvelous", both you and Dennis. I am happy for you for what you have achieved and how happy you both must be.
Kudos to both of you!!!!!!
