Putting a Stake In the Ground

Wow, long time no post! And I apologize for that. These past few weeks have been a real struggle for me. Every week, I gained, or I didn't exercise AT ALL, or I went 25 over my additional 35 allowed by Weight Watchers (and that's probably an understatement). Essentially, I had nothing positive to write. So I didn't. I gave up and figured that this was the best it would ever get. I have a beautiful son, what more could I ask for? I could be the funny girl/good mom/girl with the pretty face.

But now I'm back. I've decided that I'm going to stop feeling sorry for myself and do something about it. I do NOT have to be resigned to not fitting in my size 14s or my size 12s anymore. Just because I had a baby, that does NOT mean that I can't be a hot mom, or a mom who is proud of what she looks like! I can and will make time for me. Being happy with who I am will make me an even better mom!

So here we go - my first step with my new can-do attitude. And I even have a goal:

Before my sister-in-law's wedding at the beach in August, I will be below 200 pounds. If it's 199.9, for this purpose it's fine, because it's below 200. That's basically 10 pounds. (Wow, putting that down in print was rough. But it needed to be done.)

And here we go!
