Well... I told ya I'd be real and honest!

At my induction, December 17 2012, I weighed in at 178lbs. Prepregnancy I weighed 139lbs so a 39lb weight gain!

After delivering Rylee, who was 8lbs 3oz, I was sooo excited to weigh myself! Thinking I'd be AT LEAST 10lbs lighter! HA I actually GAINED 5lbs! Say whaaaaaat?! Yeah! I went home December 19 at a whopping 184lbs and stayed that way for a whole week! And I was breastfeeding! I was so swollen it was almost unbearable! My doctor just said to urinate ALOT and it will help! Well for all my mommas ya know that going to the bathroom after having a baby is a dreaded event!

So! Here I am 3 weeks postpartum down to 159lbs! Still feeling disgusting but hey! I did just give birth!

Tiger stripes?! Yes I do! Only on my sides! The ONLY place during my pregnancy I did lather up with some concoction!

I feel very weak! I did some light work outs at home and walked with Rylee and Mark for an hour yesterday... Feeling the burn!

Eeeeeek! I look... Bad! At least from behind! Which I wasn't expecting when I took this picture and looked at it!! Realistically I am giving myself 6 months to be where I want to be :)

Welcome!

My name is Sarah Juttner I am a proud wife and mother looking to support and encourage other mothers and women. Blogging has become the new 'cool thing' to do... However most blogs are forgotten, never updated, or just thoughtless... I have been in search for a great inspirational blog made by other real mothers and with no such luck I decided to be the inspiration and start my own! I want to be 100% open and honest in my blog with nothing held back. My blog will cover anything from fitness to product reviews to the struggles and joys of mother hood to fashion! :) I hope we can all inspire each other and do nothing but be the best we can be!
