New week

Good Morning!!!! Guess what? I'm up, EXERCISED! and water in hand. Yippee!!!! Go me!!! Woo Hoo!!! That's right! I got up at 4am so I could get in 30 minutes of an exercise video. I feel so great! Although I know the first couple of days are the hardest. Wait until the end of this week. LOL! But I feel pretty good. And I lost 0.4 this week. How I have no idea considering I wasn't really watching what I was eating last week but I'll take it!! I'm ready to get out of this stupid 190's!!!!

I'm surprised!

I actually lost weight last week. I lost almost exactly what I gained the week before. Go figure. But I have a feeling this week I am going to gain again. I've been eating everything! Darn coworker brought peanuts and pistachios and almonds in. Now the almonds are disgusting and the peanuts, I tried but not too fond of. But the pistachios? Yummy. Darn them!! The reason I've been eating everything, it finally dawned on me last night. AF is due to arrive this weekend. UGH!! Oh well. Not much I can do. But now that I know what is going on, I can combat it. I can quit eating the nuts and I can have a banana instead. If I need two bananas that's fine. It's better than a handful of nuts!

We are going to visit my parents this weekend. I am so looking forward to it! They haven't seen Connor since January! He's grown so much. :) It should be fun. I have to bring Connor to Mom's work on Friday so her coworkers can see him. One of the coworkers even switched her Drs appt so she could be there!!

I'm still struggling with exercising. I just am not fitting it into my day when I know I can. I'm just being lazy. Like on Monday. I'm so hopelessy behing on TiVo'd shows that I sat and watched three episodes of Lost. It was nice to just sit there though! I can't remember the last time I was able to sit for that long and do nothing. I know it will come in time. I just have to be patient. Patient and proactive!

I guess I should post more

It's been awhile. I did really good in March!! I lost 9.8 lbs that month and was OP 29/31 days! Then I went to Vegas and all hell has broken loose. I just can't get back into it. I'm super tired from my weekend plus Connor has taken to waking up in the middle of the night for a feeding now. UGH!! I also gained 2.4 lbs after my weekend in Vegas. And if I don't stop what I'm doing now, it's just going to get worse. UGH!!! I can do this.

This picture here is one from when I was at my all time low. I want to get back there and then more! I can do it.

Yippee Yippee Yippee

I lost 3.9 lbs last week!! I think it's the exercise that did it. As part of the BTTB challenge on c2l we had to exercise at least 10 min everyday. Did I do that? Hell Yes! I'm going to get as much points as I possibly can because I want to win this challenge. :) So I exercised on Friday and Saturday while Connor slept. I put an exercise video in and did it. And on Sunday, he did not want to nap so I put him in his bouncy chair with a couple of toys and he watched me. :) Worked out pretty well. He got a little fussy 10 mins in, but then he was ok. Once he gets better neck control I can put him in his exersaucer (which he LOVES) and feel comfortable watching him in there while I exercise without being right on top of him. So this just proved to me that exercise CAN be done at home.

Next week: Onderland here I come!!!!

Good weekend

I had a fabulous weekend!! And when I weighed in this morning I lost 2.2 lbs!! Yippee!!! I was kinda sad when I first saw the number and I couldn't figure out why. Then it hit me. I know why I'm so bummed. I'm still over that ugly 200 lb mark. But then I realized hey, I lost 2 lbs!!! That's awesome! And that was enough to get me in a GREAT mood!! We are going camping this coming weekend. I can't wait. Sometimes it's a little hard for me to stay OP there but I know I can do it. All I have to do is plan, plan, plan and I will do it!!!!
