I’m like a little kid getting stars from a teacher.:) I am 40 lbs down today so I earned another white star. Whoo Hoo!! Some days it’s a major chore to get to the gym (I don’t even want to thinkabout how I’m going to manage once shool starts again) but I’m doing it and it’s paying off. 10 more lbs. and I’ll be half way to my goal. I was able to go shopping last week with my sister.-THANKS TONI!!!- and the jeans I bought were an 18. I haven’t seen an 18 in years. Granted I’ve got 20’s I still can’t take a step in but so what. Those 18’s fit and they look nice. It was great fun going shopping with my sis and talking to some other women in the dressing room. Shopping has never been fun for me but when you feel better about yourself I think it makes everything better. So thanks everyone for all the support.

I know I’ve told myself I should be happy with just a pound a week since that would mean a minimum of 50 lbs in a year but… I feel like I am really working the diet and the exercise and the results are just slow. I feel great when it’s a 2 or 3 lb loss week and I want it to be so much more. I am committed to getting to the gym daily and it’s summer time. What am I going to do when school starts back up? I already feel like I’m cheating the girls if I do an extra 15 min. of cardio ( the 7 month old spends most of the time crying to be picked up which is not gonna happen when the Kids’ Club is full). Why couldn’t I I have done this before the kids? If only..If only.. Man change is hard. But I’m going to keep on plugging. Thanks for listening.
