So if you’ve read from time to time or if in fact you know me then you may know… that I’ve been struggling with my weight.
I’ve always been thin before having children and I never had to really try for it. I just was. I mean I went to gym, I worked out hard but I also smoked, drank and ate a lot of nasty fast food.
But as many of you know you change after becoming a Mother. Not just in who you are and how you think but really physically you are a different woman completely. As all of it is welcomed, the extra pounds that comes with it is NOT.
I’ve read that with each child comes an extra 5 permanent pounds. Wow, if this is true then my Three =15 lbs that will never be removed from my Aging Ever Tired body.
I think I’m going to fight this idea and try and beat the odds of excepting the extra weight. I don’t want to be a Mom that explains that I “just” had a baby when my child is 3.
So I bit the bullet that I cannot make this change on my own. I cannot get to the gym, I can never seem to work out at home. So I did the one thing I feel I am capable of doing, I joined Weight Watchers online.
So far I’m rockin’ it. I weighed in and…. I lost 4 pounds!!!!
I started at 162 Wednesday April 21st and today I am 158!! Good Bye 160’s!! Never to be seen again. That’s 4 pounds towards my goal of 32 :o)

Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYou can totally lose those extra baby pounds. I'm 15 lbs lighter than when I had Addison so that's definitely a myth.
Way to go! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo, congratulations! Yes, it is harder to lose the weight after kids because our bodies have changed and we're older. I still looked like I just gave birth when my youngest was almost 4. That's when I decided to do something about it. Two years later--yes, it takes time, commitment, and determination but is so worth it--and I'm at the healthiest weight and smallest size of my life. It can be done. It's just not easy. Props to you!
