Three Months Later

My baby will be three months old tomorrow! It's hard to believe. Three months ago today I was roughly the size of a small country and couldn't wait to meet my Boo Boo. Today, I am 41 pounds lighter than the day I delivered him. I'm very proud of myself. ;)

Friday is weigh in day, of course, and I dropped another two pounds this week. I was happy, of course, but part of me was kinda hoping to see at least three pounds gone. I know one to two pounds a week is the realistic target buuuuuut . . .

I have eight more pounds to lose in the next three weeks in order to meet my next goal. That means at least two weeks, I'll have to lose three pounds a week. I dunno if it's going to happen but Imma bust my ass to try!

Here are this week's progression pictures:
I realized after I took the pictures, that I was wearing an outfit that I have a picture of me in around this time last year. I don't know if I can tell much of a difference ('specially since Hubs is in the picture, too) but I am nearly 10 pounds lighter than I was when this one was taken.


I also took new pictures of me with the boys today. In this first one, you can tell that I still have a lot, a lot, a lot of tummy toning to do. And, yup, I'm still using the boys as a "shield!:"

And, in this one, I feel like you see that I've slimmed down in my face:
All in all, I'm pretty proud of myself. I'm not pleased with the way I look right now -- though I know I look better than I did just a month ago. But that's why I'm working on me. To get to a point to where I can honestly say I love my body. ;)
