A little Progress

my husband and I were going through old pictures last night and he came across a few from when we first met 4 years ago. We met online and the pictures he saw were the ones on the profile I had when we met, I never thought I could be jealous of myself.... but thats exactly what I felt, I was jealous because I could see how good I looked in those pictures and I could see his reaction to those pictures.... so I am determined to get back to what I was in those pictures (180) and hopefully less, that was 4 years and a baby ago so I know I have a lot of work to do but I am determined to do it!

I've never posted pics here before but I think getting them somewhere that other people can see will give me a kick in the butt so here goes nothing! I can see a little change, I swear it looks like a bigger change in the mirror than it does when I take a picture though!

The first pictures are the ones he was looking at last night, these are my motivation (well part of it anyways) I want to get back to this!
