27 lbs - and 2 years (pics)

I found some old pictures and sat, stunned. Granted, my baby was only a year old at the time, and between the summer of 2009 and January 2011 I had lost - then gained - 15 lbs... but still. No wonder people are surprised when they see me now. The comment I hear most is "My goodness, look at your face!"

Looking at the before pictures... wow. I never realized how round I'd gotten after having my boys so close together. My eating, which was never fantastic, spiraled out of control while I gorged myself on bags of chocolate and sweets in one sitting.





Not a great comparison pic, but I can certainly see the difference. The shirt is all baggy in the waist since I wore it in my round days.


I started this January at 170 lbs. Today I'm around 143. Pre-baby/pre-wedding weight was 135 - 6 years ago. I might actually be able to do that again!
