Here we are- almost halfway through the Body After Baby Challenge. I've almost stopped checking the blogs of other mamas because they make me want to fall off the wagon. It seems like people are losing interest and getting distracted, and it makes me think "everyone else is slacking, why can't I?"
I'll tell you why. Because I have worked my TAIL OFF for the last two months to look like I do. Because I feel so much healthier, stronger and more attractive when I'm fit. Because eating light and healthy makes me feel good and energized and happy. Because my husband deserves to have a wife that looks hot and my kids deserve a mom that has energy to play and will outlive her family's poor health history. That's why.
I'm writing this the night before my weigh in, and I'm really hoping I'm 132 or less. I need to be 124 to meet my goal for this challenge, and if I do I'm splurging (with DH's permission) on a new pair of Lucky Brand jeans in a smaller size. That means I have 8 lbs or so left to go and just 6 weeks. I met most of my goals last week, all except eating out. This week, my goals are:
-Level 3 Shred at least 4 times
-Eat at home 4 days this week (eating out the rest is fine)
-Measure all foods (no guesstimating)
Update: 131.8 lbs today! Yippee!

L-Panda Express and Golden spoon fro yo
S-1/2 can of whipped cream (!) and Atkins peanut butter granola bar
D-Mahi Salad and grilled zucchini
S-Vitatop, latte bar, cookies n cream bar

How I'm doing: Feeling a bit out of control with our bank account and time management. I can feel myself wanting to cheat (hence the half can of whipped cream that went into my mouth). Doing my best to be in control of my diet as a way of feeling better and more in control of my life, instead of letting it spin me into an eating oblivion.
