New start!!!!

So... it's summer, warm weather, lighter clothes, up coming vacations, but still same old fat me.  We have a wedding to attend next weekend, and I went out to find something to wear today... of course couldn't find anything that I liked. I know I'm my worst critic, but still, it's so frustrating I don't feel comfortable in anything.  I saw some pictures and seriously wonder, how I let myself look like this.  I know moving away from family a couple years ago, and couldn't find a job for a year didn't help.  I know I turned to food and boy I regret it now.  I just wish it would come off as fast as it goes on.  Having a baby was the greatest thing in the world, aside from my wedding day, not that I've kept any weight from that, I'm down to my original size... however things shift and change, and that's the part I don't like.  The numbers on the scale might be the same, but the body doesn't look like it. lol  I really need to get my butt in gear and I want to do this so bad, I just don't know how to stick to it to during those rough days and not give up. It seems like its so impossible to get to where I want to be. I really want this I want to be healthy and active for my self, but also I want to look hot for my husband, and I want to be around to grow old with him and for my son... and any other future children we have!  We're getting to the point we're thinking about another one, but I'm torn between wanting them somewhat close and losing my weight.  You think that would be enough drive at times and sometimes it is and other times its not.  I just keep falling back into my same ole habits. I hate it and I want to do this I need to do this for myself above all else!   I  am aiming to start fresh this week. We leave this weekend to head back to Michigan for family vacation, and I'm so pumped. A week out at the lake and cottage, it's awesome.  I jsut hate having to wear a bathing suit.  But I want to have fun and experience it all with my husband and son, but I'm so self conscious it's all I think about. 

OK!  SO THIS WEEK FRESH START..... NEW START... I CAN DO IT!!!!!  I do weight watchers and I enjoy it I just get lazy with writing my points... but I need to do that to keep myself accountable... and if I crave food drink a bottle or glass of water first and see where that gets me. I have the turbo jam dvds, so I should probably start doing that too, it might help and make me feel better!!!  WISH ME LUCK!!!

I CAN DO IT!!! God Bless!!

Slowly

Well I weighed myself this morning and I lost a little over 2 pounds!! Yay!  I know it's nto much but its a start and it's better then having gained over 2 pounds! I'me xcited and hopefully this will help jumpstart myself. We have a wedding to go to in 3 weeks and i need to find something to wear for it!  I'd love to be down some more just to feel a little better about myself!  Anyway...I sure wish weight would go off as fast as it seems to go on... lol  I really need to just kick myself in the butt.... I don't like being this weight so why is it I have such a hard time sticking to it?!?! 

Tough weekend ahead

Ok... so I have a big weekend coming up. I haven't done too terribly this week.. always could be better.. but I was 5 points under yesterday.... I think I need to eat breakfast to balance my day out.  I had to run errands today around lunch time and was starving since I hadn't eaten breakfast and so I grabbed some BK... horrible choice... feel so guilty about it, but  tomorrow's a new day!!  Anyway...this weekend we're having a party with my husband's fellow employees.  Most of the wives... yeah nice and thin... although none of them have had kids.. except one.. but she has a personal trainer and is very well off..... I'd look a lot better too if I could afford a personal trainer.  Anyway... so the "snack" items I bought.. all stuff I don't like so when we have them leftover I won't eat them. I thought this was a pretty good plan.  Anyway..... hope everyone has a great weekend!!  Gotta stay strong!!!! :)

New Start!

So, today begins  new day! I have to do this for myself, my husband, my family.  But mostly, myself! I just need to find the strength to stick to it.  I want to be so much healthier for my family so I can truly enjoy them.  I want to live a long active life with my husband.  Pray that I find the strength to stick to this!  I HAVE TO DO THIS!!!!! I WANT TO DO THIS!!!!
