I wanted to share this, as I've been going at such a slow pace losing weight, and eat at a maintenance level of food one day a week to help me get cravings out of the way... The first picture obviously my wedding day in 2010, I gained 20 pounds in my first year of marriage, the 2nd is a few days ago on our 6 year anniversary- I literally never had any professional pictures done since my wedding day! bf8q3hfn5x93.jpeg

    Yes! This!
    I actually feel comfortable, I can move better, just the little daily activities are so much easier! I am "living" now

    Congratulations on your accomplishment! You look incredible! One of my main motivators to lose weight was that I am in very few photos with my son. I am terrified of camera, because the camera doesn't lie. I don't want my son to have no photos of his Mom. I want to be present and vibrant as you are now.
