Ok, I don't really have a true before, because I only had one and the jump drive it was on is not working properly. So, my before is actually 25 lbs down and my grandchild is 1 month old. The during is today and she is 7 months old. I am down an additional 50 lbs from the first picture and 3 jean sizes.
