Finally some updated pictures!!

Ok friends...so I've been thinking I should take new pics of me...but really haven't wanted to, because I still don't feel like I look great. But then I go to Zumba and I put on my work-out clothes...and I'm actually quite pleased with how I look...COMPARED to how I looked before. Not nearly as many rolls!! ;)

So tonight when I got home from Zumba...I made Ryan do a "photo shoot"...he did great!! :) :) Hope you like the comparisons...I can tell a little bit of a difference...not as much as I wish...but it'll come with time...it's only been 2 months...gotta remind myself of that DAILY!!! The first pictures were taken on Jan. 6th...and the ones tonight Mar. 16th!!!

Enjoy!!!

So this slouching position that my sister and I do WHENEVER we see each other...that our husbands HATE...yep...no change in that...because it draws ALL the attention to your GUT...BLAH :) But I had to do it ;)Ok...so kind of can tell my boobs are smaller...that's nice!!
 

A little too close for my liking...but gotta do what you've gotta do!!! I still HATE the double chin...but what can I do!?!? It's just me!!! Definitely can see that my abdomen isn't nearly as wide as it used to be...feels SO good!! Not to mention the other night I could take my jeans off WITHOUT unzipping or unbuttoning them!! SWEET!!!

Side profile...yep...my gut is almost...ALMOST sticking out less then my boobs!! That's what I want...your tummy should only stick out farther...I think...if you're prego!?!?! That's what I think...and want for myself!! Oh...and my butt doesn't look as big?!?! Or is it just me?!?!?

Then there's just this silly shot for Ryan that I had to share!! I was being silly and he snapped the picture!! Gotta love hubby's!!! :) :) :) I know I love mine!! Check out my tummy...it doesn't "muffin top" as much as it used to!! HOORAY!!!!

And just the final...full-body shot!!! I think I'm looking dang good...and Zumba is working miracles!!! I have been slacking on eating great...but with my desire to run...I know I need to improve on that as well as drinking more water still!! Maybe with warmer weather coming...and being outside more...water will be a BIG hit again...it's gotta be!!!
I think the most important thing to say and let you all know is...check out that SMILE!!! I haven't smiled that big or been this happy with myself in a LONG time. Just ask Ryan...I am starting to realize I CAN do this...I CAN change and see things happening...I CAN do things for ME and take the time I need to improve things...which in turn improves my life and family!!!

Just in case anyone is wondering...since I haven't posted my weigh-in for this week...I'm down another pound!! Hooray!!! :) :) :) Thanks for all your support and encouragement!!
