I've officially shed 78 lbs.

Today is the first time I'm actually feeling.....normal. Not quite "thin", but no longer obese.

I tossed my last pair of big undies today cause I found myself trying to stuff them into my jeans and it was uncomfortable having my panties in a bunch...(ha, see what I did there?)

I've gone from an 11 to a 9 in undies. From 2xl to L in scrubs. And I bought a pair of men's jeans in a 32x32 cause my legs and butt are ...

It's been 9 days since Ty was born, and all I've done is complain about how awful I've been feeling.

Well, let the record show, that half an hour ago, I washed dishes and didn't get dizzy!
