Pics

I keep meaning to add the dreaded start pics, so here we go.

 

YUCK!

This is me, but not for long. =)

Making holes in the carpet....

Yesterday, I got up at 5:30 and walked with my girl Brooke. It was great. We went about 2 miles, nothing big, but I felt great the rest of the day. Today my walking buddy didn't feel well, so we didn't walk. I don't feel comfortable anymore going by myself. Just too many people being kidnapped these days. It's sad when you can't even walk in your neighborhood without being scared. So today while watching Live with Kelly I decided to walk walk walk around my living room. I really thought I was going to make holes in the carpet. lol! I got rid of my free weights a while back, when I joined the gym, so I grabbed some cans of tomato sauce and did some arm workouts. =) Even, though I spent an hour working my arms,crunches, walking, and doing random exercises in the living room I just didn't feel like it was enough. I didn't wanna get baby boy out in this heat, just for me to get a workout in. I don't think it is fair for him to be stuck in his stroller sweating to death b/c Momma is fat and needs to lose weight. So where is the best place to get a good walk, and it be in doors, and it be free? THE MALL! lol! But first, it was time for my monthly cleaning out of baby boys clothes. Man he is growing so fast. My sweet 7 month old is wearing 18 month clothing. We are growing us a line backer. ha! I panicked realizing my baby boy didn't have any clothes, so I loaded him up and we headed to the mall. So, I got two things accomplished, clothes for my boy and 2 hours of walking/shopping for me. =) I am exhausted, so I must have gotten a good workout today.

Weigh in!

I lost exactly 1 pound this week. Yea, Not a huge loss but I will take it! Taking pics and journaling is harder then I remember. It might have something to do with the 7 month old that lives at my house that won't let me do anything but hold him. Just sayin, lol! I won't put all the blame on him though. I guess I could let him cry for a minute while I do it. I love that he wants me, but hate that I can't get anything done. I am treasuring it though. I know it won't last long. I know he won't go to college wanting me to hold him. And if he does, hey we could be on some dumb tlc show and make lots of money. haha! Anyway, shooting for 2 pounds this week. November will be here before I know it and so will my skinny jeans.

Catching up....

This is so annoying......

Brody is almost 8 months old and my wedding rings still don't fit. Look how puffy my fingers are. Boo! Can't blame anyone but myself, it's just annoying. So, new goal: =) I want my wedding rings to fit by Brody's first birthday. Still wanna lose around 30 pounds by his 1st birthday as well. A little over 4 1/2 months to do so. I feel like every other day I do good. Sunday, I ran a whole mile without stopping. Then walked the mile back. Nothing compared to the 5k's I have ran, but I was excited I ran that far. Yesterday I was so freaking sore it wasn't even funny. So needless to say I didn't work out. I really am trying to do good. It's so hard. Why does it have to be so hard???? So pulling out the ww books and starting to take pics of my eats again. I can do this! I will do this! I don't want to have to "start again". I'm tired of always having to "start over".

 I CAN DO THIS!
