I have been big for as long as I can remember. I was an overweight child and it was my fault. My parents didn't let us sit in front of the tv or eat garbage all the time but I ate in secrecy a lot. A couple years ago my husband was getting ready for his first deployment and I was trying to keep positive for being alone and we went shopping for my summer clothes. I was sending pictures to my husband from the dressing room to see what he liked while he looked around for some things he wanted. The picture below was the picture that started my journey.....
I was 216lbs when we made the choice to eat healthier. I lost some weight with him here and a bunch with him gone. I was 176 when he got back from his deployment and immediately (we were trying) I got pregnant with our son. I gained 50lbs. I took a while to lose that 50 again but it happened and slowly I have continued on...I am now 156 and 11lbs to my goal of 145! The belly still needs some work from being pregnant but it will come! My husband is now gone on his second tour of duty so my second 6 months of serious weight loss focus has begun Add me if you want to join me in the journey!
Sorry I don't have the best pictures of me heavier, I was always the one behind the camera!
and this is me now
Here's a new swimsuit shopping comparison 4/11 - *can't believe I'm going to post this*
