One Pound Down

Hey buddies! Well, I only lost a pound this week…but I’m not stressing about it. It seems to be my pattern these days, so I figure I’m due for a bigger loss next week.

Things are going well here, staying busy with family and writing stuff. Hope y’all are having a fabulous  weekend!!

More Pix (Before and During type stuff!)

So today was my middle son’s fifth birthday party, and it went great. We had it at Chuck E. Cheese’s, so no planning (outside of scheduling it and inviting everyone), and also no clean up. WOOT! LOL!

Anyway, my MIL was walking around with a camera, and she snapped a silly pic of my daughter and I, which she subsequently emailed to me. Initially, when I saw it, I picked it apart (oh, my mouth looks weird, oh look,  you can see the gum I was chewing, etc.) But then, I pulled up an old file with pics from 53 pounds ago. Check this out:

Hubby and I…53 lbs ago (approximately) Ok, and then, this silly snapshot taken today:

So NOW, I can see the difference. Looking at these two pics inspired ME a little today, to keep moving forward with this healthy lifestyle. I can see things happening, and it feels fabulous!! So I hope it can inspire you too.

Hope everyone is having a healthy and wonderful day!

Life and Weigh Ins

Ok, first let’s start with the weigh in…down three more pounds, for a total of 73 so far. WOOT!

Now, life…my big kids have both started school, so I’m running around like a crazy woman again. I don’t mind though, and I’ll tell y’all what, being in better shape makes a HUUUUUGE difference in the way I feel ABOUT running around lol. I feel a lot less cranky about it and less physiclaly exhausted. I can only imagine how awesome I’ll feel when I reach my goal.

Anyway, I’m also writing daily, publishing often. That certainly doesn’t hurt anything in the self confidence department, because when one’s doing what one loves, what more could one want lol?

Other than that, I don’t have tons to report. Youngest two kids have a cold (thanks to the middle one bringing it home from preschool.) Oldest kid is doing great mostly…

I’ll keep it short and sweet this morning since I’ve got a coffee pot calling my name, but I’ll try and update y’all more tomorrow. I hope everyone is having a fabulous and healthy weekend!! xoxo
