My Journey

I have always had an up/down battle with my weight. After some extreme "disordered eating" in high school, I ended up dropping 30 or so pounds before my graduation in 2005 and another 15 afterwards. I got pregnant in 2008 and gained almost 70 lbs. When I went in to have my daughter I was just under 200 lbs.
Sept. 2008 -- 1 month before I had my daughter [sidenote: yes, I know I'm pregnant here but just check out the arm fat and face chub)

Nov. 2008 -- 1 month after having my daughter

June 2011 -- my wedding day (!!)

I gave gained some weight back since my wedding (probably like 5-6lbs) but am on the way to losing it again. Looking back through these pics makes me extremely proud of myself of how far I've come. But I still would like to lose my "mommy tummy" and just focus on getting toned and super extreme fit!
