Weight Loss update

Well, I wanted to let my AVID readers (if I even have any) know about my weight loss! I just weighed myself at my inlaws house the other day and I lost 6 pounds! I also fit into my moms size 14 shorts she let me barrow after I had the baby!! (Which up until the other day I couldn't even get them close to on!!) On Sunday I fit into a skirt that I haven't been able to wear in a long time it is a size 10 but a big 10 so I am pretty excited!! ALSO my WEDDING RING FITS now! I am really excited about that!! For the longest time I haven't been able to wear it because when I was prego my hands would swell like sausages and they were still HUGE up until a little bit ago!! I have about 15ish pounds to loose now! Wish me luck!

For those of you who are pregnant please know that it is highly unlikely that you will be in your "normal" clothes right after you give birth! I knew that but didn't realize it would take almost 4 months for me!! SO far that has been the hardest thing for me personally since I had the baby!! So, good luck to you and don't freak out and get worried like I did that you will never fit into your clothes again!!!!!

I read! Haha you are in my Google reader so when you post it pops up :) YAY for you! How exciting! And my wedding ring is the one thing I am looking forward to wearing again... so yay for you! I am thankful for my postpartum time to be during sweatshirt season... so it'll be a little "easier" to fit into things!

That's great!! I'm definiely an avid reader, so you should post more often :). I feel your pain with the weight loss, but I am, too, beginging to lose it. Yesterday I put on my "normal", pre-preggo jeans and they actually fit (size 3, even though they were so tight I couldn't sit down :)). I've still got about 8-10 to go, but oh well if I don't get into my 0's anymore...

Congrats though, you're doing great!!
