BIG step

update!
my husband showed me this picture I had totally forgotten about from January 28th. 
I weighed about 180lbs. 
not the best resolution, it was taken with the hubs phone. 
but you get the idea!
 

I am going to do something I NEVER do
Post a pic of....
ME
I am usually on the other side of the camera capturing 
my babies
projects I did
just about anything
BUT,
never myself! 

Yesterday The Hubs says its your turn.
I have been quite camera shy the last few years.
I guess I haven't wanted my weight gain documented.

Since November 40 lbs have come off! 
That is worth celebrating!
but I want MORE! 
I have hit a wall and haven't lost pounds for about a month.
Lots and lots of inches but
no pouds!
The hubs is huber supportive and keeps encouraging me
I am doing a cleanse this week! 
{will post about it later}

I want to be healthy, skinny and in shape for:
ME
the hubs {he needs his arm candy:P}
my kids {they need a Healthy Mom to play with them}
I don't have to be supermodel thin
I want to fit into a sexy pair of jeans again
run and play with my kiddos without getting tired too quickly.

I am getting there. 
I am loving my new body, 
curves and all! 
I feel so much healthier, prettier and happier!

Love that you're in the bathroom, lol, but seriously you look GORGEOUS! I've known you what, 5 years almost, I've never thought of you as even chubby. Loving the dark hair and the outfit, you look great and I hope YOU become delighted w/ your look.

I had to do it in the bathroom, it was the only place that was spotless. haha. Everything else was "get 3 kids and myself ready for church" messy.
I am getting used to the changes to my body and trying to embrace them :)Thanks guys

You are so beautiful, Court!! I have yet to start exercising again. But I finally got to the point where I had to not worry about trying to be as thin as my mom & sisters. That was my biggest downer. I know I will NEVER be as skinny as them, and as long as I am healthy, active, and HAPPY with MYSELF, then I will be the perfect weight! ;) Wish we lived closer....would love to be Zumba buddies with you!!! Keep up the hard work!!!
