Looks CAN Be Deceiving

This is a picture I hesitated posting here and on Facebook. While it was a wonderful moment during Jack's dedication, all I see is that I must be five months pregnant again. Because of all of the encouraging comments from all of you on a previous post, I have felt much better about my weight and the rate at which I am losing it. After seeing this picture I was convinced that I had not made any progress and I was discouraged

Yesterday I had a doctor's appointment for birth control. I was dreading stepping on the scale. I did not want to see 159 pounds again. When 151.7 popped up I bent over to make sure the number was not 157.

I lost 7 pounds in 3 months! Yay!!

I can do this. And so can you. :)
