It's been quite a long time since I have been on here. Quite a lot has changed in that past year. I had a baby in March...he is 7 months old now. I have been dieting and exercising since he was born and am proud to say that I am smaller than I have been in over 5 years. Down to a size 4!!! I want to lose 6 more pounds by the time my husband returns from Iraq in December and I know I can do it!!
Well after losing a bunch of weight and then gaining some back, I am starting weight watchers and working out again today. This time I have a lower start weight so that is good, but hopefully I want have the hurdles I had last time. I am setting a goal of June 1st, just because that is summer and I want to look good by summer. Wish me luck!
I am finding it really hard to resist eating too much since my husband is gone and not here to keep an eye on me. He never really watched me before, but I didn't do it because he was there to see everything I eat. Don't get me wrong I have not gave in to the temptation yet, and I am hoping not to, but it just seems so easy to do that I am almost tempted to lock the cabinet!! One good thing about him being gone is that I can cook healthier food and not hear him complain and also I have been able to do an hour and a half to two hours on the treadmill each night without having to worry about getting off of it to go spend time with him. I really miss him though!
Well I am about a month into the whole WW, and I must say that I am pretty proud of myself. I don't feel like I am dieting and that is allowing me to stay on track. I have lost 15lbs so far and can really see a difference. Also, my hubby bought me a treadmill for my birthday and I have been using it non-stop. I feel so much better about myself, not because I am losing weight but because I am exercising and it is giving me energy to do more. Today on my day off instead of laying around all day with my son as I normally would, we got up, went to story time at the library and went to the playground. I usually don't even get out of my pj's on my day off. A lot of my negative attitude has a lot to do with the death of our second son, but lately I have been feeling in a little better of a mood, so thats good. I just hope that when my husband gets home from BNOC I can look even better for him!!
I went shopping yesterday to get something to wear for the party on saturday. I am pretty excited because the store I went to has inexpensive but nice clothes, and I found something cute!! The thing about cheap clothes is that for some reason they always run super small. At this store a size XL shirt usually is the equivilent to like a medium name brand shirt. The fact that I found something that fits makes me pretty excited because it means that I am making at least a little progress. I know I couldn't have fit in this outfit a couple weeks ago!!!
I wish I could go to sleep and wake up skinny. Oh wait..I can. Thats called liposuction, but I can't afford that. I exercised today with my Yourself Fitness Xbox program, but I don't feel like thats enough. Even though by the time I'm done I'm all sweaty and exhausted, it seems to easy to be doing anything. I have lost 8.5 pounds so far, but who knows if thats from exercise or from weight watchers. Probably a little of both. I get my extra money back from financial aid in a couple weeks and I am buying a treadmill with it. I am so excited. But this could make me or break me. The reason I say that is because, I still plan on getting up in the morning and doing my workout, but then I am going to walk or jog on the treadmill at night while watching tv. The reason it might break me is I am afraid I will not want to wake up in the morning for my early work out and have the attitude "it's okay I am going to walk tonight". And then the night rolls around and I will be too tired to use the treadmill or something. I am hoping that is not the case, after all I have been doing my workouts everyday without excuses and I feel pretty good about it. I am saving all my extra weight watchers points for the week for saturday because Leah and I are having a party for our birthdays. Even then I probably won't use all my points but I am going to save them just in case. I think I am going to go searching online and see if I can find a birthday cake recipe that is low fat but still tastes good. Off I go....
Right now at the start of exercising and doing WW, my BMI is 29.2. This is considered extremely overweight. Too be honest I don't think I am that bad...but thats what it says. I have lost 5 pounds in the last week so I am very excited to reach my goal of 135 by Christmas!!
