A quarter of the way through my journey...yes pictures too

So in February I had a baby. In September I went back to work. I realized along the way that I'd kind of wasted my whole maternity leave and totally wasted the fact that I'd lost weight being pregnant. So I was on a website for local mums and someone mentioned MFP. Gave it a look. Thought hey I could totally get on board with this. Really my problem has never been eating particularly unhealthy portions are my issue. I'm not gonna lie I like a bit of cake but I don't need it every day (though if it's the house...) So I started it, logged my food, got some other people on board and started walking to work. Then I started reading about 30 day shred and thought hey I'll do that. I actually started a group challenge of people doing 30DS together, seriously I love sitting on my butt so for me to even think hey I'm going to do this let alone hey who wants to join me is weird lol. Anyways. I've been doing this for almost three months now. I managed 20 of the 30 days (sometimes those 20 minutes don't fit into life). I started at 308, was at 282 when I started 30DS and weighed in at 270 this morning. I haven't redone my measurements yet but I have gone down two pant sizes. Anyways here are the pictures...
July 2011 (there aren't a lot of standing full body pictures of me funny enough)
November 4 2011 beginning of 30DS
And me this evening (9 December 2011)
So that's me 25% of the way there...

You're doing great. And don't feel like you wasted your maternity leave. Those first six months with an infant, as you know, you're lucky to get a moment in the rest room, let alone time for workouts or anything else. Plus, you had to get to know that little person. Keep it up and best of luck.0
