I forgot!

I forgot to mention something big that happened between the last time I posted and now. I had a baby! Ha! I got pregnant not too long after I lost weight when I was posting. We found out the first of August and had her in April of this year. So that is pretty big news and important to my weight loss journey. She's now almost 7 months old and our little boy is three. I stay pretty busy just with them!

My goal is to post my journals daily. I enjoy when people post pics of their food so maybe I'll do that too. I'm pretty boring though and eat the same things over and over again. It is easy that way and so far I don't mind it.....so far.

I have had 35 out of 41 points today so I have some "snacking" to do. Yay for my child's Halloween stash! Ha.....just kidding,,,,I bought my own bag of 2 point kit kats for nightly snacks.

Today was my official weigh in day and I was down 2 lbs. Very exciting since I had been up all week during my peeks. I hope to reach the 250's (31 lbs min.) before Thanksgiving. My original goal was sometime in December but it is going faster than I thought for now.

I'll post my journal later. :-)

I'm back!

I stumbled across this blog when I decided to start trying Twitter again. It was sad/funny to come back and read it and see my weight loss at the time.

I love reading other blogs so maybe I'll enjoy writing again and sharing my days of journaling, thoughts, etc.

I'll leave the old weigh ins up b/c they're interesting to me and they go with old posts.

I'm on Weight Watchers now. I'm not going to meetings....just doing it on my own with the new points plus plan. I weigh in on Mondays,,,,though I struggle with weighing in during the week. I started August 1st on a crazy low carb diet,,,,lots of tuna and broccoli and I actually walked a lot. I lost 17 lbs in two weeks....cool but crazy. I actually kept 11.5 lbs off and on October 3rd I started WW again. Since then I've lost 16 lbs as of today. Woohoo! My goal is to lose 3.5 more before Thanksgiving to put me at a certain weight. Right now I get 41 points...down from 43.
