I would guess that most people hit some sort of “rock bottom” before starting a serious and consistent weight-loss regimen. At least, that is what happened to me. I had previously decided to lose weight a number of times in my life, but never once did I actually do much to accomplish this goal – not until…
Weight Loss
I’m Proud of You
It was Saturday night. We had just got the boy off to bed and were preparing to hunker down for Game 2 of the Stanley Cup finals. I started clearing the living room floor of Little People, giant plush dogs and a multitude of socks; a clear sign that I was intending to do a…
Flaunting it All
Even though very few pounds have actually been shed this time around, my confidence has soared since I’ve started to watch what I eat and work out regularly. I don’t know what it is, but I just feel better about myself. I feel better getting dressed in the morning, I feel better walking around my…
Thirteen Pounds
If you remember back to last week, I was home with a sick baby. I got right back into the my old stay-at-home-mom habits and after one too many days of not getting dressed, not doing my hair or makeup, and munching whenever I got hungry, I started to feel like crap. It is amazing…
Ragamuffin
There is still one thing that I have yet to get used to about being a Mom. It seems as though I am completely unable to dress this new body of mine. You wouldn’t know it by looking in my closet or on my bedroom floor (I will NOT post a picture for fear of…
Thinner Thursday: Swift Kicking
It’s that time of week again. The day that I wake up first thing in the morning with my baby, take a quick trip to the bathroom, and stand on the Wii Fit to weigh-in (while trying to keep my son from crawling all over the balance board and throwing off the weigh-in). I did…
Thinner Thursday: Body Love
As a pre-teen, I remember feeling like my belly wasn’t flat enough. “Don’t worry about that”, my best friend told me “soon you’ll have boobs and then you’re belly will look way flatter in comparison”. It was a nice thought, but despite developing, I still felt like I could be prettier… skinnier. Now, I wasn’t a…
Thinner Thursday: I’m Normal!
I haven’t been posting my weekly weigh-ins in a while. Now that my baby is mobile, I’m spending all my time running after my baby and no time typing up blogs. That is not to say that I haven’t been keeping up with my Weight Watchers journey. Every Thursday morning I have been weighing in…
Thinner Thursday: Uninspired
This girl here? Yeah this one. The one whose blog you’re reading. This girl does not feel up to blogging right now. This girl? She’s kind of bummed out. It might be because she’s feels rather uninspired about the post she’s about to write. Maybe it is that she knows she is overdue for a post. Maybe…
Thinner Thursday and BAM!
And BAM! That’s what I have to say. BAM because I completed my second week on Weight Watchers. BAM because I lost weight again. BAM because I am actually feeling better about myself. Dan and I have been on a tight budget for the last few months. (Maybe I’ll try to blog about that later – it…
Thinner Thursday
I did it! I got through one week on Weight Watchers. The first week went pretty well. I had a few different experiences as I went through the week, but all in all it was a positive experience. The biggest issue I had was the feeling like I didn’t have enough to eat. I’m definitely someone…
