off to a slow start....

My little man isn't 6 weeks yet and I am itching in a sense to get back, but have given myself until the 6 weeks to make many changes. All I want is sugar and I am not sure how to get off of it!
I hope that I can in the next few days not eat as much and then stop buying it. But we have had so many birthdays in the last 3 months it is so hard to get off of it!
I have started tracking irregularly right now, will have to get better at it. My hubby is going to work with me more to lose and we are going to get up and work out together once I am not feeding in the night it will be easier. My little guy is giving me more sleep but it is still tiring to feed all day long!
Hope you are well out there in the blogging world!

Starting again

Hi Everyone,
I don't know if even anyone is checking this blog anymore, but I am back. I have had baby #5 and need to do it all over again! The lowest I got before being pregnant again was 191.
I am now at 200. I have lost in the last 3 weeks since baby about 15 lbs, so that feels good, too bad it was all baby and a little more and I wish I could do the next 15 as easily as those!
I am going to start by tracking food. Since exercise is not going to happen just yet, still getting over the having a baby!
My goals are simple for the next 3 weeks before the docs appointment

1) track food every day, I am going to start using the Losin it app again on my phone!
2) do a little more, going up and down stairs running around after my kids!
3) if I have had a good night sleep do the Wii EA active on the wii with the kids.

Long Term goals
1) track food
2) Work out 5 times a week come about June, I should have babe on a good schedule!
3) Start running again, using the running app on my phone
4) get to 165 by the end of the year!

well

I know it's been a while again. Sorry to those who do read, I don't know who most of you are but thanks.
I am holding at the 190 right now. I have been up and down with feeling not so great and feeling ok. My children too have been up and down especially the youngest. He has a runny nose right now. And he is a big suck when it comes to being sick and wanting to be in my arms all the time. I just finished my 1st boat camp and it was great. I am going to keep going for the rest of the summer. I have a few things in my life that are happening and will wait to let you know those. We are working on the yard and the trampoline is up right now and the kids are loving it. They have something more than just riding bikes, which they love to do, but I can't be out there all the time with them, so now they can be in the yard.
we are good and happy and not so healthy but getting back I hope soon.
Who has some great plans this summer?!
we are going to go camping in August, but we stay close to home for the most part....

I did it I did it!!

So I did it, I know I have been missing for a while. I have not been feeling that good.
Still not 100%
But I did it, I finally hit 190.0 I have lost 25 lbs!!! I have 30 lbs to go, so I am almost 1/2 way there. That makes me happy.

It takes time to adjust to changing your mind set. I now look in my fridge when I am craving something sugary and think what can I eat that would satisfy that craving and not be high in sugar or calories. I like the new me and my change. When I do eat something that is not good for me I don't eat tons and tons of it, I take a portion and can eat just that and be done.
Growing up I was always scared even though we had enough food, that I wouldn't get enough. So I would eat just to eat sometimes which is so not good. I now eat until I feel full or before and give the rest to my hubby if he is still hungry or get rid of it or left overs.
We had a nice day out for the past couple days, I can't believe summer is here and my oldest is home now all the time with us. I hope we don't drive each other too crazy! And we can enjoy our outings and times at home!!
Happy Start to the summer!

Week 1 195
Week 2 194 (-1.0)
Week 3 194.5 (+.5)
Week 4 193.8 (-0.7)
Week 5 191.4 (-2.4)
Week 6 190.4 (-1) Total lost -4.6

So close, but good enough for me!!! I have been drinking more and working out a lot and loving it! My children are helping with it and so is my DH, he is a great support. Too bad we don't work out too much together, I am really trying to get him more motivated to do so....
I am excited about the losing and I think this is the lowest I have been since before my last baby about 2 years ago....
It's going to be a good week, I can feel it!
Hope those who read this are doing well. What are your goals for the summer? What kinds of activities do you enjoy doing in the summer?
