Self Portrait Day

I just had to pull out the tripod today.  I don’t feel like I have been doing enough to lose weight yet today I was able to wear my prepregnancy jeans.  Without feeling like the muffin man.

I have continued without added sugar, but we have had Easter and dessert.  I have bailed on the couch to 5k program, but I have been going at my own pace,  when I can, as much as I can.  I started my weight training again, and I didn’t realize how much I missed it.   I have also tried to cut out a few more carbs.

 

I think it has paid off.

I won’t say that I don’t have any muffin top, but I am a far cry from where I was even a month ago.  And I am so thankful.  With the warmer weather finally here, I was happy to find out today that three of my skorts and two of my 3/4 length pants fit!

Whoot! Whoot!

J wanted to jump in for a photo.  Next up, sundresses, YIKES!

    Isn’t it a good feeling to get back into old (smaller)clothes again. I recently got into a pair of pants I haven’t been able to wear for about a year now. I knew my other pants were getting much, much looser and pulled the smaller ones off the hanger one morning by accident. I looked at them and thought, “what the heck, I’ll try them on just to see.” I was quite pleased when they fit perfectly. I’ve still got a long way to go, but it feels good to know I’m heading in the right directon. Congrats to you for doing the same!

    WOO HOO for pre-pregnancy jeans. I know after I had M just being out in the summer dropped 10 pounds off me. Or maybe it was that he would only sleep till 4:30 am so I was out every day at 5am power stroller walking to pass the time (and wake myself up).

    You look great! It took me almost a good nine months to lose all my pregnancy weight. It was so exciting moving into my old pants again. I seem to have a collection for all sizes! Look at how big Apple is getting. So cute! 🙂
