MORE PICTURES HERE!!!

One of the newer photos of me...my nephew took this at his 3rd birthday party. He's seen Aunt Monica take so many pictures of him he wants to always take pictures himself...not too bad if you ask me : )

This picture I took of myself with the digital camera the day after my brother's wedding. I had let my hair grow out long for me and I had to put an after photo in with all of the ones of me in a dress. As for those pictures of me in a dress...guess you're gonna have to ask nice to see some of those because I won't be posting them directly on this site...

This is a picture of me from my junior year of college, yes it's old, but I think it is one of the best pictures of me because I am not looking at the camera : ). I look like a dork when I actually smile at the camera what can I say? And yes this was back when I had a bit longer hair then I do now as you can see from the pics below.

Graduation '03... ; )

This is me in a tree down in Highland Hammocks State Park in Florida. I spent a week down there for work. It's a real tough job I have sometimes ; ).

A little something extra...

This is for everyone who didn't think that I needed to lose weight at all. So here are some before and afters... What can I say people...I'm a little bored right now...

This is back in August 2004. I didn't start dieting until December. Truth be told it really did start because I had to wear a dress in my brother's wedding.

Again back in August of 2004... These are the closest things I have to before...

This is in February of 2005. I hadn't quite hit my goal, but you can still see a difference.

This is the day after the wedding. I know that these last two photos are already posted but I needed to repost them so that you can all see. I have lost a few more pounds since this photo was taken, but the good news is that I am headed back to the gym, not to lose, but to put muscle on this time : )
