I didn't do a posed before picture but I managed to find one I could crop the other person out of. I also haven't done a posed during picture but again found one that I cropped the other person out of. And amazingly, I am wearing the same shirt in both photos!
This change is from a little over 4 months on very nearly 100% raw, except for the occasional nibble of something containing an ingredient that isn't totally raw. For instance, agave nectar, or nama shoyu, or not true raw (but labeled raw) cashews. 45 lbs have literally melted off of me, without any extra effort on my part. I have not been doing any sort of organized exercise or any extra activities. That is going to change as I want to firm up more and do some sculpting of my body. I have noticed that at 47 (48 in 7 days) the elasticity factor has definitely diminshed. But all in all, I'd say my body is keeping up with the changes pretty well, and I am taking MSM off and on to help it cope. I now only own 1 pair of jeans that doesn't slip off of me while buttoned and zipped
. I am hoping to have melted another 5 lbs off by my birthday, and will be happy with whatever amount melts off by then.
Anyone can do this! It just feels fantastic and the people on this forum are so very supportive! YOU RAWK!

Wow, you look great.
I just love before&after pictures, they are so inspiring and just make you feel happy seeing how easy it is to change, you know?
You look younger too, and um, warmer/more "here" or present or something, do you see it? And happier:)
Congratulations on the release:).

Oh my, you look wonderful! You look like you lost MORE than 45 pounds, so it all went off in the right places! This is such and encouragement to me. I am 50 and have despaired of ever losing weight. It just doesn't seem to want to budge. I am on day 2 of all raw and not feeling so good but will stick with it.
