Reason: Another pic!
Boy you sure are pretty!!!! How far out are you and how much weight have you lost...you look great. I should have my daughter take my pic and post it. I don't think it should be too difficult, she is almost 12 and knows her computer "stuff" really well!!! As a matter of fact the digital camera is hers =)
Just wanted to say good job Bridget, you are doing great!

So far I have lost 66 pounds... at the time of that picture I was more than likely down about 40-45 pounds. I lost weight right away in my face. I am happy to lose weight anywhere at this point. Thank you very much for the kind words. Best of luck to you.. I will talk to you soon.

This is my first post in this forum, but I had to come and tell Bridge what my 2 year old granddaughter did when the pictures popped up. In her two year old baby babble Lei Lani said oooooh preeee... she said "oh pretty"

Looking at those pictures is so bizarre! Having not known you when you were fat, I can't imagine that you ever looked that way! You look absolutely fabulous, Bridge!

Of course, I also don't think those photos do much justice.. you look even better in person..
