Work in progress... down 32lbs from picture to picture.

I joined mfp after having my 4th son, I was 184 at delivery, and 158 when first logged on. I only lost 4 lbs in the beginning and then gained one back. I got discouraged and quit. About 8 months passed and I was still maintaining 155. Then one day I got on the scale and I was back up to 158... mini panic, but it's ok, it'll come off, just a fluctuation I told myself. The next time I got on the scale I was 161. Full on panic time. My son was nearly a year old, I'm done having kids and I just can't spend the rest of my life at 160+ pounds.
I jumped back on mfp and committed to getting this weight off. I felt better almost immediately, by the time the first 10 lbs came off, I was feeling a million times better. It hasn't been easy, I have weeks where I lose a pound, gain a pound, lose a pound in what seems like a torturous cycle, but it eventually breaks and the weight loss continues. I'm currently 4 lbs from goal weight and 14 from ultimate goal weight.
I was pretty upset last week from a comment made by my mother-in-law, and started searching for a before picture, which I found on my son's iPod, (since I'd never let anyone actually take a picture!!!), it was taken just about the time I decided enough was enough, the 161 lb mark. I took a quick after picture and was pretty proud to see that you can definitely see some decent progress!
I thought I'd try posting pics here ~ I love looking at the Success Stories and get tonnes of inspiration from them, hoping to inspire some others to just keep at it. I'm currently 129 lbs, 5' 4-1/2".
