The Proof is in the Pic

Well I really felt that I was not making progress, even though I could see I lost 20lbs on the scale I still looked the same to myself, I still have alot of work to do, but when I took a picture the other day, I decided to look back to see the difference, and unless I looked at the pictures I would not have been able to tell the difference. It made me so happy to see that all my hard work is paying off.
I hope this encourages others to keep trying and also to take pictures of your weight loss journey because you never know when you may need a little something to remind you that it is all worth it. No half naked pics here just me in a dress. I am still working on 20 more lbs but this is a big step for me. I have a 2 yr old and a 7 month old. Sometimes I feel I dont have the time but I make the time because I want to live a healthy life and feel sexy

I also want to add that I recently had a hernia surgery right above my belly in august, I was so afraid that I would gain weight cause I would have to be sedentary but I did not gain weight. I watched what I ate as best as I could. I could not exercise for about 6 weeks and I had to extra careful around my belly. Then when I was able to I just took it slowly and got back on track
