So I turned 25 yesterday. Had a very nice birthday! But its funny the very first thing that I thought when I woke up yesterday morning was ……..

Every year you promise that you are going to be skinny or lose weight by your next birthday and each year you look in the mirror and you are still big. Not only this year was I big, I am the biggest that I have ever ever ever been. I know I just had a baby (Brandi & James lol thank u both) but I have had 4 mos that I could have started dropping some of this weight off.

I don’t know what it is about this site, whether you really do feel obligated to stick to your commitments or if its just putting it out there for everyone to read. That makes it a little easier to stick to what you are going to say. I am in the who can stay the strongest the longest and I committed to no sodas and exercising 5x a wk, and I have actually done it. The sodas is the biggest thing that I am shocked about. Thanks to all the ladies that are in there!

I am tired of looking in the mirror and being miserable. This year of course I want to lose weight but what I want is to put on a pair of jeans, and not see my big o tummy hanging out, hanging over and exploding out places that it shouldn’t be …… For my next birthday I want to be able to wear a size 8 pants is that to much to ask for? Do you think you can go from a 16 - to an 8 in a year? Is it possible to drop that many sizes in a year?

So here I go again lol! I think that is going to be my challenge to myself this year. Lets see how it goes……

So I thought that I was fairly flexible I can touch my toes with out bending my knees, I can palm the ground for that matter. So I was going to do a little YOGA video and guess what I aint flexible at all …. That dang girl was doing things that I couldnt imagine doing. Holdin her leg out beside her body like it aint nothing, anyways I got to give it up to people that do yoga, I always asumed it was easy, I was so wrong lol!!! Oh yeah my sister is dilated to a 4 and I am going to have a little niece some time soon!!!! : )o I hope everything goes well she isn’t due until Dec 7th.  Our babies are going to be 13 weeks apart!

Well this will be my first blog so lets get it started. I came across this site yesterday,  this is how I spend my days in front of my computer at work. When I am busy I am extremely busy but when there aint nothing going on, here I am. So anyways I thought that I would take this time to list why I want to lose weight and how I can go about doing that? If yall have any ideas or suggestions feel free to let me know them all of them lol! My experience in losing weight, well I had spent over a year with a personal trainer and was making great progress (down 40lbs) and then in August I had to have surgery so that set me back. Well December 28th I had been feeling sick off and on that day and so I took a pregnancy test and here it is 11 monthes later I have a 3 month old baby boy! Which was a real shock seeing that my other baby is now 5 years old and just started kindergarten. Anyways I am now trying to get back to losing and its been tough cause I can’t get back to them gym unless I have someone watch my baby cause he has to be 6 mos. to go to the kids club. So I have been doing some squats, sit ups, push ups, and jumpin jacks, just little things around the house to get back in the habit of exercise but it has been extremely difficult to get back to the habits of eating for 1 & not 2 lol! I don’t really over eat that much, maybe sometimes, but just trying to get back to healthier habits has been hard. I need someone to give me a big o kick in the butt to get me started again I guess.

But my reasons for wanting to lose is of course the normal, I want to be healthy, I want to be around as long as the good Lord lets me for my two boys, I want to feel better about myself, I want to put on a pair of jeans and feel great about how I look in them. I can’t stand my fat rolls YUCK!! I want to feel confident, I hate that I feel so insecure about myself that I think when I walk in a room people are judging me cause I am so fat! I hate when my husband touches my stomach cause it is so gross, Yes I have issues lol!!! I just want to feel better about myself I don’t mind being thick I just want to get rid of all the extra Fat that is there and to be healthier.

So if anyone has any suggestions, I would be apperciate it! Thanks for takin the time to read my blog ……
