Avoiding the Camera

Normally I avoid cameras like the plague or a fresh serving of Brussel sprouts and chicken livers.  However, my cousin Janissa, who also had the surgery, has been taking pictures of herself weekly to record the weight loss.  I can really see the difference so I thought maybe I should take one of me now to see if I could tell a difference.  I did that tonight and posted on Facebook and got many comments that I looked good.  Sometimes what we don't see, others can, and it was a huge boost for my self-esteem and a nice push to remind me that 68 pounds does make a difference.  There is so much more I can do now that I've lost the equivalent of an 9 year old.  Still a long way to go, but the love and support I get from so many of you really helps.  Thank you all for that.  Once I get more confident I'll post a full body picture but for now here is a head shot, check it against the one for the blog...do you see a difference?
