Okay, as promised, here is a picture of me taken last night. You can now see my shorter hair and 31 pounds less of me! LOL I'm down three sizes in jeans and four sizes in dress pants. I didn't dress up for you or anything. :) This is how I look when I go to work. Now, you guys be nice! Hopefully I will be able to post another picture when I am down the next 31 pounds. Wishful thinking.......
Blushing,

Chele, you look great! You go girl! I am so proud of you, but I always thought you were one beautiful lady. Does this mean Peggy and I get to eat all of the seafood the next time I pass through? lol Thanks for posting this picture - it really made my day!
Wow - - you look fab. . . and to have 5 kids (not to mention just having a baby a year ago) you go girl!
(PS -- your girls are gorgeous!)
Lookin' good 'Chele!!! So proud of ya sweetie!! 2003 is gonna be a great year for you!!
"eyes"
Va-Va-VOOM!!
Humma-humma-hummma!!!
(Am I speachless?)
Looking goood! Now I see where your beautiful girls get their looks from.
Good for you, 31 pounds is quite an accomplishment.
YOu look great! Now I am going to gain again with this pregnant! Wahhhhh.... I am proud of you! :o)
Fweeeeeep-fweeeeeew! You look GREAT, Chele! Keep up the good work, girlfriend...Inspire me to get back on track here!
Michele, I agree with Carol! You are and will always be one beautiful lady (mother, wife) both inside & out! You look wonderful!
P.S.
Did you ever get the target brander made for your boss?
Wowie Zowie, girl!!!!! You look fabulous! Good job and so pretty in pink too. I know you will have a great New Year! Hugs, Lani
Badseed, you are just beautiful! What proportion! And think of the thousands you save by not needing implants. BTW, I always say it takes two years after a baby to really get back to your natural shape, so you need to be kind to yourself. You have come so unbelievably far in such a short time, and you don't even look sleep deprived. Work, kids, hanging sheetrock, nothing daunts you!
Chele you look great! But then you always did! Hugs and miss ya!
Chele, you're beautiful as always!! congrats on 31, that's a lot.
Michele...you look BEAUTIFUL, FABULOUS, WONDERFUL, GORGEOUS!!!! But hey, you were all those things before you lost the weight. Love the new hairdo! I can't believe how bright eyed you look. I would have mega bags under my eyes if I tried to keep up with you. CONGRATULATIONS girl! You look GREAT!
You all are way too kind! LOL I guess I knew you would be or I wouldn't have had the courage to post the picture! LOL I kept telling people I had lost weight and everyone wanted to see, so I guess the proof is in the picture. :) The jeans I bought a month ago are falling off of me, so I guess it is time to buy more. The good and the bad. LOL
Oh Aimee you make me laugh! Implants, no! LOL But I may have to have them remounted soon. he he he he Where do you buy one of those knobs for your back that allows you to tighten everything back up??? Giggle. I'll be awaiting that answer, probably forever.........
And do your little ones use them as handles for climbing up? I always felt Mother Nature slipped a bit when she designed them.
ROTF Aimee! The kids spend the first year and a half as ornaments and the next seven and a half (so far), stepping on them, sitting on them, ripping them off and poking them to get your attention! LOL You have to admit they are in the perfect place for holding babies close to your heart though. ;)
Chele - you dooo look wonderful, and with that great smile you must feel wonderful too! Did you really try to do it, or were you just working so much you had to skip meals?? Congratulations and Happy New Year.
Okay I lied you got too me,LOL It worked. you know what we talked about,LOL
But really way to go girl, yes now I have seen the pics, LOL
be chatting with ya soon
Huggs Mike
Chele, you look great.(I also think I found those pounds you lost, lol) Love the hair cut.
Thanks a bunch to all of you! You all really make me feel great! I haven't lost anymore and only a few came back during the holidays. I am sure they will go soon. :) We are back to four days at work now and I am finally finding some time to finish projects at home. Guess I will have to keep really busy to keep those pounds falling off. I might even look decent in a swimsuit by NEXT summer! LOL
Hey Michele, we could do a before and after!!!
First I have to get that knob installed in my back, the one that tightens everything up! LOL
chele!!
you gorgeous creature!
I have always said how magnificent you are!
beautiful no matter what but I am so proud of you hiney, I know how hard it can be to lose weight. I am still slogging away at it myself!
you look wonderful..... but then again, you always did!
I want one of those knobs!
And I NEED two knobs! One for the upper body and one for the lower. Just one could never make enough of a tuck to make a difference on this body!
