Losing Weight........I'll get this right.

Well I started my weight loss journey a little over a year ago. I started out at the same spot I always do after having a baby. No matter how much I weigh I end up at the same spot every time. Anyway. I lost 55 lbs from June to December. I moved states and just lost and gained the same 5 lbs. No matter what I did I couldn't get past it. Then I got pregnant and in that short pregnancy I gained like 15 lbs. What was that?? My body was gearing up to get back to where I always end up. Then after my miscarriage I got a tad depressed (can you blame me) and gained another 5 lbs. Ugh I wasn't going to have it. Cause I got rid of my bigger clothes and I wasn't going to re buy them. So I lost another 13-15 lbs. Then I got rid of the clothes I shrunk out of. No going back right? Now I'm on my way to get past my 55 lb road block. I've incorporated exercise in my weight loss program. I NEVER do that. I have all the intentions of doing so, but it's not some thing I've really enjoyed. Until now........ I really enjoy it. I get a break from the kids and have me time. It's more than me time in front of the computer or whatever else. It's really time that I'm focusing on the important part of me. My health is what I need to nurture. I need to for my kids and family. Mostly I need to for me. So if you hate to get out and move your body just try it. I bet you'll come to like it if you give it a chance.

My spot!!!

He's claimed this part of the couch and if you try to sit there you will feel his wrath. Next it's the remote.

Ohhhh something funny. We listen to Bryan Regan in the car sometimes. My kids love the part about the kids "calling" the hump in the back seat of the car "he's calling the hump Walt." Now they are doing the same. Oh boy.

Preschool

Benji started his first day today. He was so excited and wasn't willing to wait. As I took the girls to school this morning he was disappointed that he wasn't going as well. So when I got back we had to wait a whole half hour and it was his turn. When I dropped him off I was forgotten. I love that all my kids are so excited to learn.


Getting ready to go in his class. Way to go benji you are getting so big. One more to go. I can't believe Mimi will be in preschool next year. Ahhhhhhh I can't think about that.
