    Your son looks precious! Remember to be nice to yourself. Loosing weight won't make you a better mom - as I'm sure your son thinks you are perfect just the way you are! Losing weight will help you to be a more active mom and maybe boost your own self confidence. If you are a reader - you might want to check out "Made to Crave" by Lysa TerKeurst. Remember - small goals, small portions and be kind to yourself! Good Luck! I hope you make all your goals!
