Results of Hard Work

I was sitting in my office, when A Thousand Years by Christina Perry began to play.  It was the song I chose to walk down the aisle to, and is very special to me.  It reminded me of the other day when I picked up my wedding dress from my dad’s house.  When we got home I got the idea to try it on, as soon as I got into my room.  I figured it would fit better, now that I lost a little weight.  I got My Love to help me tie up the upper half of my dress (the corset half), and take pictures for me to see.

Right picture - This Monday night 

Missing Middle Picture  -  Between picking out the dress (pictured on the left) ,

 and  my wedding day (where I  gaind 15+ pounds and had to let out a few inches in the corset area)

I was so amazed that my hard work, four months in to my weight loss journey so far, has resulted in not only having the dress fit better, but be too big!  That was as tight as we could lace it up.  And to think I had actually gained fifteen to twenty pounds in between the first picture on the left, which is me trying it on for the first time, and my wedding day, where I had to have it let out a couple inches in the corset area.  The picture on the right, I took on Monday of this week.  My bottom and waist have shrunk along with my upper back fat.

I have been in such a great mood since then, that I started to make lots of other before and after’s.  Here’s to keeping up the good work, and maybe kicking it up a notch!
