I've never tried to post pictures before, I hope this works. The first two pictures were taken in December of 2008, and I started eating nearly all raw on 1-6-09. The third picture was taken a couple of days ago. I am now almost 6 weeks pregnant, and am really hoping to continue with my raw pregnancy throughout. So far - no morning sickness! :) Maybe I'll get to post a pregnant picture in a few months.

Thanks to everyone for the encouraging words. It was pretty amazing to me when I put the pictures side by side the other night for the first time, and my husband was very impressed too. I can't wait to see what I'll look like in 48 more pounds at my goal weight!

You look incredible! What an inspiration. Thank you so much for posting the pics. I love reading about the numbers in terms of weight loss, but they don't do justice to the changes in people's faces and bodies from eating this way!

Congratulations!!

CONGRATS!!!

Is your goal to continue to release weight while pregnant or to just see where RAW takes you?

What # pregnancy/ baby is this for you?

Am I right in assuming QF is for quiver full... if so awesome:D

I'd love to lose some more weight while pregnant, I've been inspired by a couple of stories of that happening on this forum... my midwife (and good friend) is extremely supportive of a raw pregnancy and is trying to eat raw for weight loss herself, so I'm looking forward to having her support. I don't really have a goal (I'm kind of afraid to set one), but I think it would be neat if I could lose at least 10 more pounds while pregnant, and then 10-15 more pounds would be lost when the baby is born. We'll see how it goes.

This is pregnancy #9 for me, and will be baby #7 Lord willing. Yes, QF stands for quiver full, and we are so excited about God blessing us again!

I will be 37 years old in about 10 days by the way.
