Alright. I have made a decision and I am going to share it because I need everyone to know what I'm doing so I will actually follow through. Get all that... haha! I am 9 months post prego and have started to put weight back on and I'm not happy about this AT ALL!!! I am tired all of the time and depressed because none of my clothes fit. My poor husband has to listen to me complain and cry because of the way I look in my clothes. This isn't fair to him nor is it really accomplishing anything. And my daughter needs to have a happy and healthy mommy.
So here it is. My brother-in-law comes home in December from his mission and I have set that as my goal to lose about 30 pounds... give or take. I started last week and have so far lost 2 lbs. We got me the wii fit for Christmas and I have been kicking butt on that. I've actually been trying to get up early to do it before I go to work. I walk some at work too. My schedule is beyond CRAZY so going to the gym is out.
I am proud of myself for working diligently with the wii fit and it has been a great motivation with the help and support of Adam doing it with me (he wants to gain weight before James gets home). But I have a lot of work to do and I need to start watching what I eat. I do try to make better decisions but I know I will not stick to a diet. If I can't have a treat without feeling guilty I won't stick to it. But my treats could be a little better and probably smaller. And my meals could also be healthier.
I would love love love and appreciate every ones support, encouragement and motivation to help me with my goal.
You rock Megan! Totally doable don't stress! Admittedly my first thought was just get pregnant again and then who cares about weight for 9 more months?! Lol. This does come from a crazy mommy of almost 4 in 5.5 years. So take it with a grain of salt :) Don't stress! Don't weigh yourself everyday and just make small better choices and it'll happen. Does this annoy you coming from a skinny person? It would to me! But my knowledge comes from my better half who is not so skinny :) LOVE YOU! CALL ME AND LETS CATCH UP!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou can do it, Megan! When I hit that stage post baby, I found the site myfitnesspal.com. I lost 20 pounds doing it. I've put a few back on because I've neglected it a bit, but its amazing. The support and tips and motivation and friends I have made there kept me going. I've started using it again (its free), and I hope to be where I want by summer. Good luck!!
