Danielle,
First of all you did the right thing and will inspire others to post their photos. I see a difference in your torso (smaller and shape has changed). Your arm position is different in the poses but it looks like your arms/thighs are toning up. The obvious is the hair cut and one photo is clearer than the other

I agree with Aloha Lisa...I noticed the collar bone area too. I wasn't staring at your chest either but agree with that one too.
