Okay, I know this is a thread for FULL body before and after pics… I’m not ready for that yet… but to throw my two cents in… here are two pics. The first one (as I would affectionatly call, my mugshot) was taken in the fall of 2005. The second, was taken a couple of weeks ago… Lighting was kinda crappy, and photoshop can only fix so much. Full body pics will come soon. I promise.

Dave, remember that your after can still be a work in progress.  You can show off the progress you’ve made so far and then later on WOW us even more.  I can tell from the pictures of your face that you’ve been doing some serious slimming down.  It’s happening!!!

Lookin good Dave, but I’d like the full bodied version of you better. Don’t be shy, it’s a great thing sharing where you were and are now.

And Scott, you are such a picture tease. Good thing I’m patient, sort of.  cool smile

Good plan.  Do what Deb did.  Have your photographer take a whole bunch of pictures while you get comfortable with the idea of being photographed. big surprise  Have her take more if you don’t feel satisfied with the first batch. Then post the one that shows you at your best advantage.  wink

Dave,

I’m glad you shared the face shots with us, even if you’re not ready to share the full body shots.  These are great...I can see a lot of loss in your face!  grin

In solidarity with Dave, I’m posting my before and current face pics too.  I posted them in my thread a while back so some of you have already seen them.  I completely undersand you not wanting to show a full body picture until you are comfortable.  Someday I might get brave and take a full body picture but I’m willing to show this for now.

The first picture was Easter 2006 and the second is May this year.

Carrie,

There is a HUGE difference in your face!!  Wow!!  As cool as it would be to see a full body shot, the face-only shot speaks volumes.  tongue wink
