I look like an elephant--NSV?????

I don't know if it's because we stayed in hotels recently and there were absurd numbers of full-length mirrors or if I hit some magical weight loss fat ratio or what, but suddenly, all I see is saggy, baggy skin.

My stomach is pretty bad, but I also had 2 babies, so part of it is likely from them as well.  My boobs need help, even in bras they are a bit too low.  My upper legs--man, they are NOT good, and my butt looks, as Keith described, like a "deflated balloon."  I don't even want to talk about the batwings!!

Part of me is like, "well, I guess I WILL need plastics after all," and part of me is like "woohoo, I am losing serious amounts of weight here!" 

So, I'm going to frame my saggy baggy skin as a NSV for now.  Proof that I am making progress.

Also, here I am with my hubby and daughter before her dance recital yesterday.  I got that outfit (in a size MEDIUM) from Costco, of all places!

Oh and I saw a picture on Pinterest of someone that posted a before and after PS pics after losing 150 lbs.  Kinda scared me.....I was sure I would never care about ps, but now I'm wondering....

Think of it this way... Saggy is a TON better than brand new shiny deep red stretchmarks that signal you just gained weight!

 

You rock the saggy!

You look amazing, girl!!! I will tell you that one of the best things you can do for yourself is go to Victoria's Secret and get measured for a bra that fits properly, you will be AMAZED at how nice you can look and a decent fitting, albeit expensive bra.  Yes, I know they are pricey, but you are worth it!!!  I waited 6 months to buy a new bra and the results after I got the new one were as if I had a breast reduction. Anyway, go girl, you look SO good!!!!
