I got preeclamsia while I was pregnant, which among other things causes excessive and rapid weight gain. I had a really hard time shedding off the weight once the baby came out because the hormones linger in the body for months and hold on to the fat. It has now been 4 months, and below are the first pictures I've taken since before getting pregnant. I'm the one in the white. I'm still 5 lbs away from my original weight, but I'm finally feeling like myself again. At a Christmas party.
Below are some of the last pictures I took before getting pregnant, and are almost a year old. I had one of them as my avatar picture for a while too.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
