Description
I began a personal art project a couple months ago documenting my weightloss. I keep a journal in which I document my food intake and take self-portraits every week that I add to each journal page. Since beginning February I've now lost 20lbs.I was an absolute stick through highschool and most of college weighing in at a mere average of 110lbs..(and I stand 5'9".)
At some point over the last few years my terrible eating habits and sendentary lifestyle really caught up with me and before I realized it I weighed 150lbs at my highest-ever weight.
I was asked by a friend to photographically document her pregnancy from beginning to end and it was that project that inspired me. I thought it'd be interesting to photograph her as she's getting bigger and me while I'm getting smaller.
And the results are what you see here.

and I mess with the contrast using Levels.

This is incredible.
It's so motivating it scares me a little bit.
Tell me, how did you do it exactly?
Because right now I am more or less EXACTLY your before picture.
Beautiful lighting, too and I love that you can see your hair has grown, too.

I'm sorry I never replied to this?
I cut my calorie intake by probably half.
I eat breakfast (low-fat waffles, cereal, ect.) every morning.
I snack throughout the entire day on healthy/low-calorie/low-fat foods (fruit, granola bars, crackers, fruit snacks, yogurt, low-fat string cheese, ect..) to keep my metabolism always moving.
and I rarely ever eat fast-food anymore.

I sort of did the same thing last year, was feeling slightly bloated and then just decided to start working out regularly (Swimming is awesome).
Don't you just feel better?

If you stopped eating meat (I dont know if you do or not) you would lose weight. I am a vegetarian and I have lost about 25 pounds since I stopped eating it 3 and a half years ago.
Great pictures by the way.

Oh, god. This makes me so happy.
I've been dieting for a few months too and for once,
it's really working.
I was never stick thin by any means, but I wasn't overweight either.
And then college came, and many know how that goes.
Anyway, you look fan-fucking-tastic,
and I find this very beautiful and very motivating!

I'm looking at myself lately and seeing myself pretty much exactly like you do yourself. I've always been a stick and yet now as I get to be ooooold I'm seeing that my stomach is for the first time expanding. It's exasperating. I see this as a really cool documentum of your weight loss. Perhaps I should get off my procrastinating ass and do something similar. hmmmmm

my GF is 5'11 and going through the same thing, as far as the weight loss goes. I wish you all the best, Keep it up because you're kicking ass so far! But I agree with what someone else said, you do look great in both, but I also understand the desire for a return to what you where happy with in the past. It's important to be happy with ones self...though not to any crazy extremes. GL with it all! We're watching!

Keeping documentation certainly helps to keep one motivated.

Well done, keep up the good work. I admire you, not only did make the effort to make the change (although you were just as beautiful before), you were confident enough to display your vulnerability.

Great work, I document my weightloss also, but not quite in such an artistic manner. Perhaps I should (: I've worked really hard just to loose 8kg. I damn should have photographed everything d:
