Thank you all for the wonderful gifts! Share the cake with you... or maybe not!

so, this is my present to myself, a "torture" 3 times a week for 3 months now with a personal trainer and a dietician... 10 kg down and we are not even at the mid of the track, but... can you tell the difference? I don't notice so much but people say yes :-( Well in any case, I asked to have at least 1 piece of cake for my birthday!!!

Cara Elisa,

I didn't catch it was your birthday! I saw a notice but I thought it concerned the facebook site, not you personally. Tanti auguri!

You look great in both pics, in fact. I find it good that you are seriously engaged for your goal. Just take care and don't exaggerate!

Be well!

Ciao

Antonella

I can tell a difference. You look great! I'm the same way, though. Whenever I lose weight other people will notice, but I can't really tell. It's just because you see it come off so gradually, and we tend to be our harshest critics :).

Have the cake, it's your birthday! Celebrate and have a great day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELISA!

I *can* see the difference and you look fabulous!

Congratulations on your new, healthy regimen!

I work for Weight Watchers now (after losing 75 pounds) and exercise every day. It's great to feel healthy and active.

YAY for you and celebrating your birthday!!!

Happy birthday! At least this day you can enjoy some cake without guilt! Congratulations on the weight loss!!! You look lovely and in the second pics it shows that you've lost weight. Now... it doesn't look like you were fat in the first pic either, but I imagine you were just not satisfied at the time.

And only now I've noticed you have a FB account - I'm adding you there too ;)

Wow...keep up the good work. There's a noticeable difference in your face, definitely. You look wonderful; plus it's just great to finally see you!

I'm in the process of trying to drop about 15 pounds right now and man, is it tough. I think I need to find a trainer, too!

Happy Birthday, Elisa ( and to think I'd almost missed it) And you look lovely on the picture. I wish I could lost 10 kg like you, you did good! I admired your determination <3

Happy belated birthday, Elisa! *\o/*

I can imagine that it's hard to notice changes when they're not drastic. Working out the way you have, though, I can imagine that you've experienced how clothes might be fitting different, etc.

FWIW, I do notice some difference between your "Before" and "After" pic. Way to go for taking care of your body. :)

(And I totes think that you deserve that piece of cake. *g*)

Happy Birthday!!! Have a great celebration - you deserve it.

Good job loosing weight! Keep it going! First 10 are the hardest.

I gave birth to my second daughter a month ago so next week I plan to start loosing my baby weight. 30 lbs to go... Second time around 8-))

Pretty lady!
I certainly think you deserve a treat on your birthday! Congratulations on what you've accomplished so far!

Happy Birthday, [livejournal.com profile] elisa_rolle!

Happy Birthday, Elisa! I wish you all the best!

I notice a difference as well. You look great! Best of luck to reaching your goal!

Elisa. It's so nice to see the photos of your visage. Reading the blog posting, I have to say that indeed, our deskwork can do much harm, sometimes, and then we have to make efforts... however... Happy Birthday to You. May the summer’s honey breath bring you A Handful of Blossoms! https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/168036

Definitely see a difference. Looking great, Elisa. I've just started back with a personal trainer too. Isn't a lovely feeling to be pushed like that. As well as feeling horrendously tortured :)
