[chelsbels 2]

I was looking a the forum just for pictures and there were a lot of people but not very many around my age group and I wanted to see more of teens/twenties so post your pictures!

Mine are still during pictures since I just did get surgery!

Oh wow, you look great. 20 lbs in that small amount of time! I'm totally new at this, so I don't know if it's normal, but you definitely give me hope! We also have similiar builds and started out in kind of the same place. How tall are you? I'm very happy for you!

Well, I'm getting banded this Friday (the 13th :thumbup:) so I have no after photos. I started an album of the worst pics of me I can find because I didn't have time to suck in my gut. Those are my "before" pictures.

I'm going to do something a little more depressing... I'm going to post photos of SKINNY me when I was thinner as a GOAL pictures.

These pictures are ordered in order of milestones:

Me post-college - 290lbs:

Pre-College (I'm the one of the left with the lifeguard tan) - 215lbs:

Is it possible I can ever make it back to that???

Love your name, MrRiceGuy! I'm Filipino so growing up, we ate rice for every meal, even breakfast!

Ha, but that could explain why I'm here now... darn you, carbs!

Anyway, you'll make it back. You've taken the first steps.
