Thank you!

I seriously love your comments Katie and Shannon. Thank you so much for the support!! I have gotten my run up to a little over 1/2 a mile, which is awesome! I love how I feel afterward. I haven't lost anymore weight, but thankfully I haven't gained any of what I've lost back, which is a real accomplishment. Hahaha!! I left my running shoes in Jville this past weekend so I pulled out my little green kangaroos last night to run. I unfortunately must report they are definitely only for show. I have blisters on the back of both ankles, and they are deep too. Ay!! Thankfully, this morning when I was getting ready for my walk I decided to look for my tennis shoes that I wore while I was pregnant, and thankfully I still had them. Yay!! So today I wore those and they felt so much better, even though I still had the bloomin' blisters to worry about. =0) If anything, the weight may not come off, but at least I'll build my strength back up so that whenever I do get pregnant, I'll be able to hopefully carry without any extra problems besides the extra weight. Hope you guys are doing great and having luck with your health!! =0) Love y'all!!

I love to Run!

Even though it is so difficult while I'm actually doing it, I still love to run. I feel so much better afterward and I love how I feel the next day. I weighed myself this morning, after having not done so in a week, and I had actually lost another pound, now actually putting my weight loss at 11 pounds. I'm so excited, and truthfully, it makes me just feel like I'm a bit closer to having another baby!!! =0) If I had just been on the ball 17 months ago, I would not have to be stressing over any of this now, especially when we are so ready to expand the family!! =0) I hope y'all are having so lots of success!! Love y'all!

I was hoping it wouldn't happen but...

I had thought about not writing that last post. I knew it would happen and it did. I've platueed on the weight loss. It stinks too. I lost one more pound and now I've fought to keep all of the weight off that I've lost. It is the most annoying thing in the world. It has been a matter of self-control too. I get up in the morning and instead of eating yogurt, I'll have a small bowl of cereal like Gabby. Well, doing that adds to my calorie intake and for some reason it has been so hard getting the calorie intake down and keeping it down during the rest of the day. It doesn't help when I eat fast food, even though I do eat only half of what I get. It doesn't always work though. So today, I've already eaten all of my calorie intake, so it'll be nothing but exercise and water until tomorrow morning. I know that sounds crazy, but I did it right before I started the whole thing before, so I figure, today can be the beginning of the next 10 pounds I'm going to loose. I'm trying to keep my spirits high too, by not getting on the scale in the morning, especially when I know I have probably gained a little. That way I don't think about what a failure I am at loosing weight. hehe! I seriously want to start working on having another baby, and it ain't happening until I loose at least 10 more pounds. I know that is probably a silly thing to do, however I do not want to be severly overweight after the second baby. =0)

Walking is awesome!!

I have to say, even though it is hot, the weather is awesome. I, of course, could do without the rain, but if it keeps the grass growing and the flowers blooming, I can definitely deal with it. I have awesome news, and I only pray that it will continue on. =0) I have lost almost 8 pounds. I have been walking almost every day, it doesn't happen every day, like I would love, but I have been walking. I also have been doing portion control, which seriously has done wonders. It's still hard to stop at half if it is so good and delicious, ay, it's hard. =0) I hope y'all are doing as well and having fun doing it. I love food, it's horrible to say, but I so love food. I have to keep reminding myself that it's only food, and I am not going to die if I do not eat all of the food in front of me, or if I do not get a huge helping of food. =0) Ha ha!!

Happy Easter Resolution!

These past couple of weeks have been so chocked full of things to do, however boredom takes over way too much it seems. I have been trying to do portion control and eat healthier. It has been a great three days that I have been trying. I think I feel a whole lot better, that is for sure. I even feel lighter, even though that isn't what the scale says, but that's okay, I'm getting to where I'm willing to wait. Ha ha!! =0) I've decided to make it my Easter Resolution to be patient!! Hope it works and hope y'all are having better luck and are safe and healthy!! =0)

Wretched Rain!

Ha ha! Thought you guys might get a kick out of this rant. I haven't ever enjoyed the rain, except on days when all I wanted to do was stay in and sleep. Now with Gabby, of course it also inhibits outdoor activity. I am very thankful for the rain, so don't get me wrong, but it is something that I wish would happen at night when we can't go out anyways. =0) I know I need to suck it up, but that still doesn't make it fun or even all better. =0) It has been very nice out these past few days so yesterday we went for a walk with great friends from Church and then that afternoon we went on another quick walk for Zaidy. Today we attempted to walk, but apparently I did a lot more work yesterday than I thought. My legs were burning by the time I turned onto the second lap. Sadly enough we only made it around two laps before we gave it up for socializing with our neighbors. It did rain this morning, but the nice break was too hard to resist! I do love walking a great deal it seems lately. I would rather do that than my aerobic videos. =0) Is it possible to be burned out on something you did a lot a long time ago? Ha ha!!

Wretched cold!

It's funny to say how much I loved the cold before I had Gabby and even during my pregnancy. Seriously though, now I can't stand it. Every day that it is cold I want to say somethings that I shouldn't. Ha ha! I want to be able to go outside and jog/walk with Gabby and Zaidy, and when it is cold, we can't do it. I don't want to make Gabby sick, so I wake up praying it is going to be at least in the 5o's so I can go out and walk or even play in the yard. I love the warm weather so much now. I know it has to do with the fact that everything in my world has flipped upside down since having Gabby, and I am not at all complaining about that, but it would be nice for the weather to comply with my weight loss, rather than hender. =0) I'm not getting rid of Gabby any time soon, so please weather, please pick a season and stick with it. So basically, it's been too cold to do to much outside since Thursday, and the rain hasn't helped either, so I'm feeling the weight gain. I get bored so easily too, and that unfortunately just adds to my food consumption and that does not lessen when I'm inmobile. =0) Can't wait for lovely spring!
