So here we are, late as always with the photos I promised from the last couple of weeks!
Tarting around on the walk from the hotel to the 30th bash a couple of weeks ago:
Bec and Nia, showing how lovely they're looking when we slid out of the party to cool down for a bit:
Check out that food - super posh (and very tastey) canapes, and the cakes. Oh, the cakes!! All 130 cupcakes were made and decorated by a friend of birthday girl Caz - how amazing is that?
The party gets going as our friend Moss hits the decks (not sure what happened with the exposures here, but I love the effect):
Last weekend at Katherine and Dave's wedding. Our little gang hanging out in the sun outside beforehand:
The happy bride and groom - married for 20 mins:
Koks and Tim drag me in for a pic whilst the professional photographers did their thang:
One thing I notice about these photos - I look very smily and happy.
For a little contrast - I found these photos from Charlie and Nik's wedding in December 2008 - a month before I started Weightwatchers. I hardly recognise myself, it looks like someone filled me up with air like a balloon. What I remember though, is that I felt pretty rubbish that day, and I was so upset when I saw the photos after ... no wonder I found the momentum to get started.
I made a New Year's resolution that 2009 would be the year I would finally get healthy ... with the aim of losing 70lbs. That journey was the start of changing many things in my life for the better ... and I'm still on the journey!

I had to go back and check that I'd read that paragraph correctly- I couldn't tell it was you in the 2008 photos!
You look absolutley amazing!! You have lost so much! Just, wow!
What an achievement, and a huge inspiration. Well done.
The change is fabulous.. So pretty...
congrats on your achievements!
Amazing photos - what a difference - it looks like two totally different people! Well done - you should be so proud of yourself. That is really inspiring and motivating.
wow! you look fabulous! well done :)
I couldn't work out who was you in the 2008 photos - it was only from your comments about being overweight in them that I twigged: you're unrecognisable! You look stunning and I hope you're justly proud.
You look amazing, the difference is remarkable! Fantastic.
Go girl, keep up the good work!

One word - WOW.
You look absolutely stunning in the most recent pictures, and the difference is amazing. You may have hit a bump in the road recently, but it sounds like you're getting past that now - and those photos are a massive testament to your achievements so far!

Un-be-lievable! I cannot get over the difference in you! What a transformation. This must be the best motivation for you. It certainly has inspired me. Thank you xx
What a transformation! Amazing.
