Starting WW again...

Not planning on going to the meeting this time, just following the points system. I'm not going to eat my activity points this time and see if I lose faster. Since I am down to the 120's I only get 18 points, which is the lowest you can go. That's only 900 - 1000 calories a day! I at least get 35 bonus points to eat during the week, which helps some.

Workouts are going good. My son is not taking a nap in the morning anymore, so I have been going to yoga on Tuesdays, which is great. It's been hard for me to find a place that has a daycare!

Ugh, gaining

I have gained 2.4 pounds since last Monday for some reason! Last week I had a bad sinus infection with a poudding headache. That with not being able to breathe left me not wanting to work out. So I skipped last week.
I have been eating around 1400 calories a day, which definitely shouldn't be making me gain! I can usually maintain at 1500. I have worked out hardcore the last 3 days and stilled gained .8 pounds! I really need to stop weighing myself everyday.
We are going out of town this weekend, which is not going to help the weight. I'm going to try to eat a granola bar for breakfast and trail mix for lunch, so I only have to eat at a restaurant once a day. But restaurant food has SO MANY calories. At least I never eat more than half an entree.

Next week I will be hitting the diet hard and heavy, at 1200 calories a day, and I think I'll be posting everyday to stay on track!

126.4!

Exactly 1 pound to go! I can't believe I've lost 18 pounds in less than 3 months. That's super fast for me. I even ate out twice this weekend and still lost.
I'm think by June 15th I will be where I want to be. I'm so excited, although my stomach is still not the same as it was before I had Kellen. Oh well! He's worth it.

The 120's!

I dipped into the 120's today, at 129.8. Only 4.4 pounds to go, although I think 120 might be my final goal.

And I switch my closet to spring clothes yesterday. I tried on 40 pairs of jeans and capris (I have a lot of clothes) and I fit inot all of them but 5!

Picture updates

I had dh take a picture this morning, so I could look at my progress. I'm not looking as good as I thought. My stomach is a little smaller, but not much. The new picture is slightly closer though, so maybe that's it.
I think I need to lose another 8-10 pounds for my body to look like it did before I had my son.
I've gained back a pound or two, so hopefully this will motivate me to be a little stricter.
I'm heading out for a run right after I post this!

The first picture is where I started with my weight, the 2nd one is today, and the 3rd one is right after I got my positive pregnancy test.

I kinda forgot about this blog...

Sorry! When I created this blog, I expected my weight loss of 19 pounds to take at least a year, and I really thought I would need it to keep on track. But now I have lost 14 pounds in 3 months, and it has been very easy for me. The weight has just kind of fallen off since I stopped nursing.

I am now very comfortable with my body and fitting in to a lot of my clothes, so I have been slacking A LOT which is not good. I did WW last week, but I went over my points the last two days. I have only lost a pound the last 2 weeks, so I really need to get on track this week.
I am at 130.8 and am really looking forward to hitting the 120's!

My week off from WW...

I lost almost another pound! Which feels great because I was not nearly as stict with myself. I am eating more dairy, not sure if that will help.
This is day 3 back on WW and I am doing ok. I have 6 more pounds to go and I am so excited that they may be off my summer!
And I have been doing my pilates arm workout 3 days a week for about a month now, and I am really happy with how my arms are looking. It is a surprisingly hard workout.
I will have dh take an updated photo soon.
