I haven't written a weigh-in post in months! Probably because it's been insanely busy with the holidays and birthdays coming and going. Or maybe I'm using that as an excuse for the fact that getting in shape has been definitely put on the back burner and trying to stick to a diet is virtually impossible during the holidays. My goal was to hit my pre-pregnancy weight by my baby's first birthday. Well it's kinda sucky that my baby turned … [Read more...]
Hey guess what I learned this year? Losing weight is HARD. Especially when you get older and you have little kids. Sigh...it's a continual battle. But I haven't done a weigh-in post in awhile and I have pretty good news! Starting Weight: 156 Current Weight: 137 Yay! I'm almost there! Well I guess I'm not that close to my dream weight but at this point I'm not so focused on the actual number on the scale as I am with … [Read more...]
As you might know, unless you are living under a rock--in which case I fully excuse you because clearly you have other issues, I have been trying to lose weight this year. And anyone who knows me can attest to my love of chocolate. (Unheard of--a woman love chocolate?) But chocolate is no bueno for the diet. But there is good news! Hershey's has just come out with brand new chocolates that are low-fat! In fact, Hershey’s Simple … [Read more...]
I think it's about time for a Weigh-In Wednesday post, don't you? I am very proud of myself this week. I have stuck to my WW points every single day for a week! Okay, so maybe it's not a huge accomplishment but given that this year has been CRAZY, sticking to a diet for one single week with NO slips is a major milestone for me. I don't really know my exact weight because our scale is currently, um, dead. So I will have to do an official … [Read more...]
It's been awhile since I've done a Weigh-in post. A month, I think. And what a month it's been. So here are my stats: Starting weight: 156 Current weight: 147 Amount Lost: 9 pounds! So 9 pounds isn't super impressive for a period of um, five months. But in those five months I have gone on three trips out of state, dealt with two deaths, my husband took his boards and licensing exams, packed up our apartment, and in … [Read more...]
Real weight loss is about making lifestyle changes that last forever. Click for Source I think that is ultimately the hardest part of it--the FOREVER part. I long for a day when I can sit around and eat lots of cookies, chocolate cake, and buttery popcorn. And as gross as it sounds, I'd like to do that every night. See, as a mom of three, every evening I am just exhausted. And nothing sounds more appealing that to just RELAX and … [Read more...]
Okay so SNAP is over and I'm caught up on orders and after Thursday I won't even have preschool to worry about. Whew! The busy-ness can take a break for a while. And that means that I CAN get back on track with my diet. Starting with eating all the junk food that is in my house (cuz you know, it's gotta get out the way.) But starting today, I am going to start fresh. And the best way to start fresh is to have a green smoothie every … [Read more...]
I'm gonna be honest here...I am completely uninspired right now to write this blog post. This is the typical time when I would just skip a day and say, "eh--who's gonna care?" But it is WEDNESDAY and I made a commitment to write a Weight In Wednesday post every week. I'm apparently more committed to writing this weekly post than I am to actually losing weight. April is killin' me. It's my busiest month hands down, next to December. … [Read more...]
