Before/After?

I can't even stand to look at this picture.
I had been working out for a few weeks and was so happy because I had shed 4lbs--mostly water weight. And I was able to fit into normal clothes--these were non-maternity capri pants.  Woohoo.

This was taken last May--2012--the beginning of Memorial Day weekend.

And this picture was taken this year.  May--2013.

Now, yes, one can argue that the angle is different, the clothes are different...but yea...that's 45lbs gone...I looked...inflamed and bloated and stuffed in 2012....now in 2013, I look like me!

Here's another photo.

Taken Memorial Day 2012.

I can't even look at this picture for more than a second...I had no idea that I looked...pregnant, still.  I was growing at a rapid rate when I went back to work after having Olivia...I hated myself and often spent many days/nights crying and stressing over it.


And then we have Easter this year...

I didn't do a 4 month update; I think these pictures sum things up.
