OK, so this might sound really stupid, but, today I was browsing through some pictures I have on my computer. I have been taking various shots of my size since January and putting them in a file so I can see my progress..
Now I Know I have lost weight and I know I am smaller. But my stomach has always been my enemy.
Anyway yesterday I took a photo and put it in my file next to another two I had and I noticed a difference!! Not a massive difference granted, but the difference nonetheless.
On the first pictures my belly was just a mass of wobble with no shape at all, it just flopped in whatever direction gravity was pushing it... I hated laying on my side and when the dear husband came over a cuddle *cue suck in and tense up*
The last picture I noticed that my sides were getting a shape!! I don't know how to post pictures on here, but it is on my profile.
Only a silly WOW! moment, but it has put a smile on my face knowing what I am doing is SLOWLY working... Can't wait to hit the gym later!
*that is all* LOL
EDIT: proof read before submitting *d'oh*

What wrap do you wear?.. If I could get rid of the cellulite in upper leggs & shrink the Baby fat (which I am hoping that the workout on the elliptical will help) I would be one Happy Lady!!!..Congrats on the difference.. Keep pushing on...Thats what my Hubby keeps telling me...0

Very rewarding isn'it? Well done and keep it up
