Weigh-in #3 edit

Starting: 181.4
Last week: 176.4
This week: 173.6
Loss: 2.8 lbs (not to bad with having started my period two days ago!)
Total So Far: 7.8 lbs

I am getting there, slowly but surely. I can see my fat shedding from my waist. I can feel it when I put my hands on my hips. I can also feel it in my underwear 😉 lol

I am almost to the 160’s. Im so close!! So close to my first 10 lbs gone! Well not my first. Ive lost 10lbs before..hell Ive lost 85lbs before. At least I don’t have 85 to lose again! I want to get back to were I can say, Ive lost a total of 85 + lbs again. Because boy it sure does feel good. I want so badly to lose all this baby weight plus a little more. I want to feel like I once felt about myself. Im not looking to see the 120’s ever again. I am more than happy with the 130’s.

Its true though, the older you get the harder it is for the weight to come off. It seems like I have to really push my self harder this time around. It seems as though I really have to watch the things I eat. I mean REALLY watch. This time around I have filled my belly with more fruit and veggies. I snack on grapes or a piece of fruit instead of those 100 calorie pack of cookies. It makes me feel better. I do have dessert every night though. I have a skinny cow icecream bar or a Fit & Active Sorbet bar (from Aldis), which are only 100-110 calories. I dont feel like I’m depriving myself. When I want pizza I use my sandwich thins and use it as crust or I measure out 2 oz of pizza dough from the dough I use for everyone else and make a personal sized pizza. I’ve been eating Boca vegan burgers (WHICH I LOOOOOVE) instead of hamburgers. I have also incorporated Extra Virgin Olive Oil into my diet, which I’ve never used before. I am more concious about the sodium content in my food.

I will get there. I just got to keep my drive. Keep pushing myself. I want to plan on getting to the gym on Saturday. I bought some new workout sneakers in hopes they don’t make my toes go numb on the elliptical. I use them in the house when I work out and they are comfy.

Well I should get some work done! 🙂

****EDIT ****
Well Im stressing because I need to find a new baby sitter for Noah. 🙁 she just told me today she’s going back top school again in March and classes will be harder and it will be hard to watch him. I wish she gave me more time. Its not easy finding someone. Especially a private baby sitter because I can’t afford real daycare. Its scary.. .I have to find a stranger to watch my little boy. The thought makes me cry.. …….

Great job! Keep at it. I’ve been going for a while now, slowly but surely and it’s working. I really should eat more fruit as snacks too 🙂

I have the SAME problem of my toes going numb. I bought new shoes too and they do it too! So frustrating. There was something online about the way I stand on my foot that causes the numbness

You are doing awesome! You are really giving me motivation to get back to working out. It’s been almost 3 months since I’ve had the baby, I have lost the weight I gained during pregnancy but now I am at a standstill. People say breastfeeding you shed so much weight, but it’s not coming off me anymore and it sucks!
