I can't believe I'm doing this

I can't bring myself to post the worst of the pics. Being the mom, I am usually taking the pics, or making someone take a headshot only, or hiding behind the rest of the family. Facing the camera head on, making sure not to tuck my chin in. Wearing clothes (I thought) camoflaged my flaws.

I found two side shots where my tummy really shows. Maybe someday I'll have the nerve to post them here. The belly is where much of my weight hangs. But I have lost weight in my face, arms, legs, butt, allover.

Ok, I decided to post one of the worst. It's embarrassing, but here goes. I'm in the red shorts. Strangely, I thought I looked pretty good in that outfit. Ugh.

Before pics - I'm showing 4 (about 15-20 lbs ago) from Jun-Dec last year,
during pics - I'm showing a pic from this weekend at the beach. Still have some to lose in the midsection (its hidden by this photo), but much better,
after pics - will be another 13 lbs from now.
 
WOW Patty!! FANTASTIC! You look awesome, the change is REALLY evident. You must be SUPER proud of yourself! You go girl!!
 
Patty, I feel you on holding weight in the stomach. But you look incredible! I just hope I can stay motivated long enough to look as good as you're looking :) How long did it take you to get where you are? Exactly how much have you lost? And, what we all want to know is what nutrition/exercise plan did you follow?

Keep it up and that last 13 will be gone in no time and you'll be the hottest mom on the block
 
OMG Girl!! You look AMAZING!!

You have NOTHING to be embarrassed about! Your picture from this weekend is truly inspirational :D
