Wow - that's fantastic. Keep it in your wallet and tell the world - what a good motivation to get the last bit off as well.
It takes a while to get your body image in your mind adjusted. I lost 6 1/2 stone a few years ago (put on again since due to family illness but working on it - 3 stone down) and you still think you're the fat lump you were before even if photos tell you otherwise - I think we get a bit paranoid about it but guess it's a case of trying to be balanced about it.

I don't think I've got any web-publishable pictures of me at my largest. I tend to be behind the camera, not in front of it.
But it was a sideways-on picture that helped to convince me that I needed to do something about my expanding waistline.

I've really got to sort out how to post some pictures. I have decided it's time for Shouldknowbetter to be unmasked.

OK here goes...
Before picture was taken last year and the after was taken last week. My hair looks a bit dodgy in both, so ignore that!
Obviously I've still got a way to go.

Well done and Well done.
Well done on the lovely 'now you' with a waist.
Well done on posting the pictures - I know you were struggling this afternoon to get it to work.

Natalie, you really, really didn't need to indicate 'before' and 'after'. Even someone as myopic as me can see.
You must be really pleased with the difference you have made. Well done, as Emm says.
And you can post pictures too, so not just slimmer then!

Quoting: flowers I know you were struggling this afternoon to get it to work. In the end I used Flickr rather than photobucket and it was easy!

fantastic transformation Natalie - you should be really proud of yourself. When was the Before picture taken - was it January? It looks a lot more than 2.5 stone difference

It was from May 2007, when I was on holiday in France. I think I was over 14 stone then.

Quoting: Shouldknowbetter you look so young in the bottom picture I agree with Nalaie, Jo - it's funny that even youngsters like yourself can look about 10 years older with excess weight. You look like a very young and pretty sister of the girl in the flowery skirt!

Thank you for you lovely comments.
Actually that picture has made me consider going back to contact lenses.
I have also decided that when I reach my target weight I'm going to have my hair cut, much shorter!!!!!
