I can barely see your pics Steph. They are just tiny on my large monitor. I wouldn't worry about making them side by side or resizing. Unless they are really huge, then I guess you could resize. Good luck to you Stephanie! I can't wait to see your progress.

Can I bang my head off a wall now? I spent forever trying to resize and they were still showing up HUGE! Now I come back and they are teeny tiny! What the heck! LOL Off to fix them. Again!

New pictures are up.
It's been two weeks and the scale is showing up 1 pound to 195 (though last Saturday it was showing 201) AF is still kinda straggling out the door too so hopefully it will change next week.
Measurements today:
Bust : 46.5 (-1.5)
Chest: 40.5 (-0.5)
waist: 41.5 (-1.5)
hips: 50 (0)
thighs: L 29 (0) R 28.5 (+1.5)
calves L 16.5 (0) R 16 (0) We didn't expect much change here because my calves are pretty muscular anyway.
upper arm L 14 (-2) R 15 (-1)
forearm L 9.5 (-1) R 10 (-0.5)

Thanks!
I wasn't really sure if I liked my hair at first or not. I've NEVER had short hair, At least not above my shoulders. DH's grandma gave me a gift certificate for a shampoo, cut and style though, so I just went in and told them to decide what to do with me. DH's aunt was there getting hers done too, so I let her and the two stylists decide which one to do. It's growing on me.....just so different than long hair. Everyone really likes it though so it will probably stay this length a while. I'm still debating on changing the color though. We'll see. lol

Great job! Your calves will drop eventually too, but I found mine took a while to drop as well. Great job on those measurements!

WTG guys!!!!!
your hubby looks a lot like mine, except mine is bigger by about 30 lbs. They have very similar shapes. My hubby just joined a biggest loser competition at a local gym. I'm so excited for him to get healthy!!!
