And what are you doing to lose weight? I need some tips :-)
I'll try again with the elastic, maybe I had it in the wrong spot--it was pucker-y and weird looking.

I've been cutting back on meals out, paying better attention to my portions and taking taekwondo classes three times a week--it does a body good!
