Once upon a time there was a young bride…
1996 - so young!
who became a young mother…
the tiny one is my son, the other is a friend
again…
look at those hips!!!
and again.
my third and final!!
She packed on the pounds with each pregnancy and when she finally felt ready, she started to lose weight…
March 2008 - I had already lost 7 pounds on WW
she walked a lot and ate a lot less and the weight started coming off…
Had lost about 15 -20 pounds by July 2008
until finally she felt normal again. She’s still got a little ways to go, but she feels like the young bride again…
Whew...that's better!
and even though her story is not over, today she feels great and can’t wait to see what the next chapter brings…
stay tuned.
That is quite outstanding, Jill. And I love the story-captions that you did!
Love this post. Great to see your work in progress – you look fabulous!
Yowzer! You look fabulous
I can’t believe it.
Jill, you have always been beautiful to me, no matter what. You’re a wonderful, gorgeous (and did I mention uber-cool?!?!) person, and you’ll always be my favorite Jilly who I have looked up to since age 3 months! I always wanted to look like you when I grew up (and thank goodness, I do)!
P.S. Sorry for using the word “uber.” I hate that word.
I stumbled across your blog while searching about PMDD. I feel inspired by your pics and I think I am going to cry… wait I’m PMSing.
Very inspiring story and awesome pics! Congratulations!
Wow..it’s like looking in a mirror, but minus the kids.
