Making the best of a deployment *pic*

My husband is in the army, and is deployed to Afghanistan. I knew I wanted to work on my body when he left, but apparently he did too! My picture is more of a during than an after, as I have another 10 or so lbs I want to lose. This is a 5.5 month change, since he's been gone. We still have about two months left, so I'm excited to see what we look like when he gets home!
