That middle picture could scare away mice.

I've been working really hard for what seems like forever (and possibly a day) to lose all of my pregnancy and baby related gained weight. But because I've been at it for so long, and because I look at myself every day, I've forgotten what I looked like pre-Max, what I looked like right after having him, and how that all compares to how I look now. In the interest of figuring that out AND sharing it with the world, here ya' go:

I didn't know it at the time (well, I suspected it, but couldn't confirm it yet), but I was a few weeks pregnant when this picture was taken. Don't worry. I didn't drink that beer. (Although it was major drama deciding if I should.) :)


This is me the day after having Max. I thank God that I never actually knew that I looked like that. I also like to pretend that part of the reason I look like a blimp version of myself is because I was retaining more water than a woman has ever actually physically been able to retain.


Me, a few weeks ago. I've lost 3-5 more pounds since then, which doesn't seem like a lot, but I like to think that when you get down to this size, it makes a little more difference than it did back in the beginning.


Thus ends the diary of my current weight loss. Thanks for joining me. :)
