    This month is going to be a challenge between Halloween and my daughter's 2nd birthday :-/

    The only thing horrifying during this weight loss that I can think of was when a worker at KFC asked me how far along I was in my pregnancy :-( I had lost about 25 pounds at that point and was feeling really good about myself...until then.
