It's been a week and a half since my last post and I have lost another 3 lbs! Woohoo!!
I had some problems a week ago going up and down, but this week I am back on track
and things are going good..I am only 7 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight with Amelia.
(finally...she is only 14 months old)
I have slacked in the area of exercising...I haven't gone walking in a week. (yikes) but hopefully I will feel the motivation to pick that back up. I can't wait until its fall and cooler outside..I don't like to be hot.
Anyway...just a short update today...8 down, 22 more to go!

30 to 30.
July 4th marked 6 months until I turn 30. 30...30...thirty...
I am not looking forward to this birthday.
I decided to set a goal for myself..to try to keep my mind off of turning, you know...that age.
My goal: to loose 30 pounds by my 30th birthday.
Deadline: January 4th.
I am already off to a good start. I started my new counting calorie diet last Wed. (the 27th) and I am already down 5 lbs in just a week and a half. I have given up pop, except for once a week. I also allow myself a few extra calories 1 day a week. I am not depriving myself from foods I like to eat..I just eat less of it.. Aside from eating less and better, I am also exercising more. I started out walking...but it's been 100+ degrees outside, and I am not putting my kids through that when they have to come with me...so I have been doing stuff indoors with pilates and Jillian Michaels. Planning on taking part in my first 5k in September, Color Me Rad.
Why am I blogging about this?? To be honest..I don't really want everyone and their brother/mother reading what I am trying to do...but I also could use the encouragement. I feel that if I post about
what I am doing, that will just push me harder to reach my goal...since everyone will be reading about it.
I am going to do something fun once I reach my goal for my 30th birthday...I have been wanting to do it for a while, but kept talking myself out of it. (and no..it's not skydiving...I am terrified of heights.) anyway...please say a prayer for me as I try and meet my goal! 5lbs down...25 to go!!
