Obviously I am not keeping up with this blog.  But I am keeping up with my weight loss!  I'm at 26 pounds down. :)  Doing good!

I am now down about 16 pounds.  Whew.  Wonder how long I can keep this up. :)

Going great!

I have lost 11 pounds in the last 10 days!  Wahoo!

I cut out all carbs and sugar (excluding those occurring naturally in fruits and vegetables) and am eating tons of veggies, with some protein and dairy.  Yesterday was the only really hard day so far, and I muscled through it.

Next week I start exercising again, and I am pumped! :)

I am 5.5 lighter now.  Hooray!

I'm 2 pounds lighter than when we got home from the wedding last week.  Probably not eating wedding cake every chance I get is working in my favor. :)

Guess who's back? :)

Me!

I took a short hiatus to have a baby.  Now baby is almost 3 months old and I can no longer use him as an excuse.

My goal is to lose 40 lbs by Christmas, or break the 200 mark. I haven't been under 200 since before my first baby! I really want to do it.  I think I can.

Jeff and I worked out my plan.  Pretty simple, but I should see a lot of changes to my body if I keep up with it.  Here it is:

NO candy
NO soda
NO sweet carbs (desserts are a killer for me!)
LIMITED regular carbs
LIMITED diary
LIMITED fruit
LOTS of veggies
And enough meat to keep me from being hungry
And a prenatal vitamin. :)

That along with exercise should make a big difference for me. I'm not sure about the exercise plan yet. It's probably going to depend on the schedule of my son's preschool. I may only go to the gym on days he is at school; I don't know yet.

But there are no more babies planned in the immediate future, so I am ready to get as close to my old body as possible!  This is finally the time and I CAN DO IT!

The Fat Girl is Here to Stay

Because she's having a baby ... again. :)

Yeah, that's what I do.  Weight loss can come later!

Due May 21st.
