Before becoming pregnant with Noah I was attempting to drop some weight I'd picked up over the years. My goal? To lose 50lbs. But once those two pink lines showed up on the stick I realized my weight would be headed in the opposite direction. Instead of losing 50lbs, I gained 50lbs. Now I'm not saying that he wasn't worth the stretchmarks, saggy butt, jiggle arms, and floppy belly. I love my Baby Man and being his mommy; but I still want to look good, too!
I think this hits hardest when I see pictures of myself. It is so disappointing to hate how you look in every photograph with your young child. I would love to have one picture of us that I could show anyone in the world without feeling embarrassed about my own appearance.
My original weight loss goal still stands, only it is now 100lbs total. Of course a large amount came off right in the beginning, I've continued to slowly drop the pounds. So far I'm down 38lbs. Only 62 to go!

Congrats on losing such a huge chunk of your goal so far! Good luck. It's rough to find the time to schedule working out CONSISTENTLY with kids. For me, that's the key: consistency.
