44lbs down - 70 total! *With Pics*

I have always had a weight problem and have been on many diets as long as I can remember. After having my first baby in 2008 I stuggled with losing the extra baby weight and never quiet did. Fast forward to 2012 I had my second child and got up to 228 lbs on the day I had him. The 'before' picture below is a couple weeks after having him and had lost 26lbs at that point which me put at 202 lbs. Since then I started counting my calories and exercising and have lost another 44lbs to put me at 158 (my after pic was taken last weekend with Charlie Hunnam of 'Sons of Anarchy :):) ). I have a few more lbs to go but am finally comfortable enough to post my before and after pic. Seeing everyone's before and after pics on here has been such an inspiration so I thank you all :)

    I love your progress! You look like that trainer(Jillian?!) on the biggest loser!~GORGEOUS!~

    I know personally how hard it is to lose the baby weight! I WILL get down to my pre-preggers weight at some point. I have 36lbs to go!

    I went from 140-240 while preggo! It was all worth it for my beautiful daughter though! Keep smiling girl~you look like a new woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:love: ~
