Period. 944393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see why you got so many compliments! You look fantastic in this and it is &nbsp;such a happy color combo, it must make people smile to see you. </p> <p>I can empathize with you on the difficulty of seeing your body as it really is. &nbsp;A friend in passing told me that she didn't think that I and another of our friends who recently lost weight really could see how much slimmer we were. &nbsp;I had a good laugh, but then I confessed that it was strange, but I felt like before I lost weight&nbsp;I saw myself as slimmer than I was, but then, having lost weight, it had switched entirely and I was seeing myself as larger than I am. &nbsp;Our minds toy with us and it is so frustrating. &nbsp;You look lovely and healthy and trim in your pictures. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-944316 Wed, 29 May 2013 22:44:10 +0000 Aziraphale 944316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting answer about the skirts. &nbsp;I never though of it that way. &nbsp;I personally like both skirts and pants, but if pressed I'd have to say I'm more confident in pants -- but for totally different reasons than the one you gave. &nbsp;</p> <p>BTW sorry about your mom. &nbsp;I know how you feel -- I'm going through it now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-944269 Wed, 29 May 2013 21:55:50 +0000 rachylou 944269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job! Seems like you're losing weight at a rate, not too fast!</p> <p>I have to say, I wonder if I look more like I do in the mirror or in pictures. My face is unrecognisable to me in pictures. Also, tangentially, I always hold handbags up in front of a mirror when shopping for them. I feel like I can't see them properly in my hand looking down... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-944262 Wed, 29 May 2013 21:45:20 +0000 Carla 944262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your style sense, and your great wardrobe. Lovely, joyful outfit that really suits you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-944256 Wed, 29 May 2013 21:40:10 +0000 TraceyLiz65 944256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes getting back to myself after years of caring for my mother and mourning her feels amazing. I think the mirror lies more. I say that because I noticed proportions when I first began taking photos that I never saw in the mirror. which caused the biggest change in my style...to dress for my petite height. I have always loved dresses and skirts and as a stay at home mother I didn't wear them often. I think getting back to that makes my spirit soar as it is a real tangible sign that I am back to myself and taking care of me. Great questions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-944188 Wed, 29 May 2013 19:26:28 +0000 Aziraphale 944188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done! &nbsp;You look very nice. &nbsp;Good for you for sticking with an exercise plan. &nbsp;It feels good to take care of your body, doesn't it?</p> <p>What do you think lies more -- the mirror or the camera? &nbsp;I wish I knew the answer. &nbsp;I think part of the problem is that in real life we are in motion, so a frozen picture, or staring at yourself in a pose in front of the mirror, is not particularly representative of how we appear to others. &nbsp;</p> <p>Also, why do you think you feel more confident in skirts?</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-944186 Wed, 29 May 2013 19:20:20 +0000 TraceyLiz65 944186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, less than four pounds to go! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-944065 Wed, 29 May 2013 16:25:11 +0000 Eliza 944065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF. &nbsp;Why is it so hard to appreciate what we have, when we have it?</p> <p>Love the outfit on you and congratulations. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-943944 Wed, 29 May 2013 14:05:03 +0000 Thistle 943944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on meeting your goal.</p> <p>I love the pink on you.

So pretty. </p> <p>And yes, static photos or standing in front of a mirror&nbsp;often doesn't&nbsp;capture what you really look like, but you look great here. Sounds like you feel great, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-weigh-in-day#post-943937 Wed, 29 May 2013 13:45:34 +0000 Transcona Shannon 943937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous skirt Tracey and congratulations on your continued success with the weight loss.

I posted a video link to my new favorite core exercize on my blog today!&nbsp; </p>
