Ok……I posted a before picture.

I know, I know……my face is cut off. lol  When I post my after you will see me…..face and all.

In the before picture I was 205 in a size 16/18. I had to start losing weight cause the dr. told me my cholesterol and blood pressure was getting high. So……it was time for me to get off my big butt and stop doing hand to mouth exercises. lol

After both of my children….I was an 8. Boy the weight sure does find a way to creep up on ya. Anyway……..looking at other’s success and reading many blogs….it’s nice to be somewhere where you can find support and encouragement.  You all inspire me to keep moving. I may not comment a lot or blog a lot…..but I’m still thinking of you all and sticking to my goal.

Have a wonderfully blessed weekend everyone.

Be strong, choose wisely, & keep your eyes on the prize. I’m in this fight with you all.Kisses.gif

I cheated……..

And it was good. :)

Saturday night and all day Sunday I ate everything I wanted. Sunday my daughter Alexis turned 13. So she wanted to go to John’s Incredible Pizza Co. Well I was looking forward to this all week. They have a buffet and I knew exactly what I wanted to eat. I had 2 of all my faves. Cake, pizza, pasta, fruit, ice cream, and punch. Boy I was a happy camper. Then I came home and had a plate of macaroni and cheese. :)

Now I wasn’t going to weigh myself till next week…..but I didn’t feel heavy or bloated so I decided to get on the scale this morning. To my surprise I only gained 2lbs. I’m hoping it’s just water weight. We’ll see cause I’m back on program today. :(  At least I know…..I can still have a cheat day without gaining too much.

Boy I can’t wait till the 4th of July. lol :D 

PS……I don’t like this new blog…….where are my smilies?
