Really? 3 blogs and I stopped? I disappointed myself. Entertaining enough things have happened in my life since the last blog...and if not, I could have conjured up some sort of funny story for you.
So I decided one day that it was time to lose weight. I wasn't "fat" - so I told myself. Then I calculated my BMI - guess who was in the red, overweight category? Yep - that was me. My weight was shocking. Okay, I'm gonna brave it...are you ready...sure about that? I'm, 5'6". I tipped the scales at 163.4. Ew. Not bad for a married mother of 2 right? Uhhhh - no! Glad that our wonderful society made me believe I wasn't fat. I was. If you are that height and you weigh that much, you are fat too. Sorry to break it to ya.
Thanks to my wonderful husband, he never told me I was a fattie-boom-battie or I might have had a nervous breakdown. He did grab some of my muffin top a time or two...now that I think of it - I guess I could have taken that as a subconcious note from him that I had packed on the pounds over the years...
Anyways, I've lost 14.8 pounds since I changed by eating and exercise habits after Christmas. I'm sitting at 148.6 as of this morning. Just ounces away from 15 pounds lost! That is exciting!! I'm shooting for the low 130's. We will see how I look at that weight. If I need to hit the 120's that should be easy. I am on a roll now! Every ounce lost is like an adrenaline rush!
Much more for me to talk about, but it's getting late and the kids are tuckered out from today's adventures in Julian, California. I made it all the way up a snow-covered mountain - twice! The second time I carried Alex up the whole way. It was a blast.
Ta-ta for now!
MommyTime Tip: MEAL PLAN! I have 30+ days of 1200-1500 calorie meal plans laid out in Excel. You can save time, money, and lose weight all at the same time. Blogs to follow will have lots of meal planning tips. I am thinking about a career as a Personal Chef so I have been doing a lot of research and getting LOTS of ideas. Don't you worry, I will share!
