Before After

Its a good thing

Today was our weigh in day.   My hubby lost 3lbs and I lost ..... get ready... 4.7 lbs!  Thats right, I BEAT him this week.  :)  So thats a total of 8lbs in the two weeks I have really committed myself to WW and exercising.  I couldnt be more thrilled about that.  Im in... hook, line and sinker.  We're going down!  Lets Dance... thats right... get down.. now "shake it shake it shake it."   LOL  

Seriously, Turbo Jam, the c25k, and walking 2 miles to the park with the kids at least 3 times a week... something each day... its helping and I feel great.  I feel good in my clothes and I can see them slipping off and getting into something "a bit more comfortable"... Oh la la!  :)

Today I worked, I did two Senior Portrait Photo Shoots, and Im tired!  Thats 5 1/2 hours of running around, crouching down standing on rocks, keeping my balance and telling these teen age kids what to do.  I love my job, I miss it actually, I havent been able to do much with all thats going around here.  But we need the money desperately and Its a good "out" for me.  So.... Im glad I did it.  Now the real work begins with editing and such.

Ok... Im headed out to play with the kids, its a beautiful day!

Hope your all doing well... lets continue to go together!

Awesome!

That is so great on the loss!  And beating hubby....what motivation!  I know the 8 lb. loss has to keep you energized!

So you're a photographer?  That sounds like a rewarding job, and it's great that with your caregiving stress, that you have that outlet to be creative!

Hi there!

I've got to say, what a beautiful family.  I sure couldn't do it!!

And Congratulations on your loss!!!  The exercise you're getting in is great.  Keep that up along with your eating, and you'll be dropping those pounds like nothing.
