After having two babies one on top of the other, I had put on some extra poundage that I got tired of. I have been working very hard to get rid of it over the past 7 months. I am now officially down 41 pounds with an additional 29 pounds to my goal. I have been working so hard, and it finally feels like it has been paying of. Taking a photo every day has helped me to see myself as the camera sees me, and it is hard to hide behind that. It makes for some great motivation.

I finally went out this week and got some new clothes so that I could stop looking like a homeless person. I have been wearing the same clothes since I got pregnant with my daughter in 2006. It was time for a change.

And so, with a little bit of work, i have gotten rid of my baby belly and actually look presentable to the world again. I’m not walking around feeling sorry for myself, which is an awesome improvement for me!
