Ok so this is a new for me but I'm so excited that I wanted to share. I was just saying the other day that I wish I had taken a "before" picture because I felt like my body was changing although I wasn't sure if it was just my mind playing tricks! Ok so fast forward to today when I got an idea (lightbulb!!!). I have this dress that I like to call my "freakum" dress (lol...blame Beyonce) and I haven't worn it in yearrrrrrssss but I've never thrown it away. I guess it served as a reminder of how "sexy" I used to be, before my last child. So long story short so that I don't lose my audience....I tried the dress on and I was amazed that I actually looked half-way decent!!! It still doesn't fit me like a glove the way it did back in the day, but the fact that I'm even in it and I look (dare I say) curvy is such a HUGE accomplishment for me!!! So although I havent lost as much weight as I would have liked by now, it seems that the inches are really making a difference for me!!!

    Thanks everyone!!! It feels great actually seeing the progress that I've made!! Lord knows I was starting to feel a bit discouraged because the scale wasn't reflecting what I would have liked to see.

    Congratulations! You look great! I had a moment like that a couple of weeks ago with a dress I haven't worn since before son (he just turned 4). Don't you love these moments?
