Weigh In 4

Okay so I've made it to week four which means I'm halfway through for my goal. Here are this weeks results:

Previous weight: 187.8
Current weight: 185.6
Total weight loss this week: 2.2
Total weight loss: 12.6

I knew this week wasn't going to be as great as last week because of Mack's birthday and other stuff, so I'm just happy I lost anything at all. This next week should have better results. A few more pounds and more of my clothes will start fitting! Bah!

So Phoebe had her two month appointment and she did really good. She now weighs 10.1 and is 23 inches long. She is in the 50 percentile for her weight and the 75 percentile for her height. I think she is going to be pretty tall. She had her first set of shots done as well. I had to leave the room because I couldn't bear to watch it, but I heard her scream anyways. I felt so bad for her because the rest of the day, if she wasn't sleeping, she was crying because she was so uncomfortable. I felt so helpless! It sucks knowing something is wrong and being able to do very little to help! On the positive side, she didn't run a fever and she was pretty normal the next day.

Cousin Avery loves to play with Phoebe. She wants to crawl in her carseat with her. She was poking her head in there and accidentally head butted Phoebe, who started to cry. It was kinda funny. When we were at the gym I covered Phoebe's carseat with my sweatshirt so she could sleep and Avery kept lifting it up, I think it was to make sure the baby was still in there. It will be interesting to see how they will react next year with each other as they get older.

Weigh In 3

Okay its Friday again so time to weight in! Here are this weeks results..... (drumroll)


Previous weight: 192.6
Current weight: 187.8
Weight loss this week: 4.8
Total weight loss: 10.4

So I'm a lot happier with the results this week and I hope that I can keep it up. I'm ahead of my goal right now but that could change next week. I really hope that it doesn't though!

Phoebe started to smile...here are some pictures I tried to get! Enjoy!

Weigh In 2

Previous weight: 195.4
Current weight: 192.6
Total weight lost this week: 2.8 (again)
Total weight lost: 5.6

So I am declining slowly. I tried harder this week, but it didn't seem to help much. I was disappointed that I didn't lose more because I was feeling really proud about how good I was. I figured that I would have to lose at least 2.5 lbs a week to meet my goal. I am on track so far, so I will keep it up and hope that it continues.

Wish me luck!

Weigh In!

Ok so it's been one week since I started my diet and here are the results:

Previous weight: 198.2
Current weight: 195.4
Total weight loss: 2.8

Ok so that's like hardly any weight at all so I have decided that I need to add more green vegetables. Here are some of the green veggies that I like: green beans, asparagus, spinach, lettuce, and zucchini. I don't like peas. If anyone has suggestions of other green veggies or good healthy recipes that include green veggies please share!

I also am going to replace skinny cows with fat free chocolate pudding.

Hopefully all this helps! If anyone has post-pregnancy weight loss tips I would appreciate it!

Thank you All!

Cravings!

Okay so it's 1:30 am and I can't sleep because I'm worried sick about my daughter. She has been sick the last couple of days and she is not eating well. She is sleeping ok, but not great. I think that she is having a hard time calming down because she is in pain. I know I might be freaking out, but I can't really tell because Phoebe is my first baby and I really don't know what to expect. I feel so badly for her. I just want her to be better and healthy. She is not running a fever or wheezing yet and I'm monitoring her closely and I'm taking her temp like once a day. I know I'm a freak.

Anyways...I decided to blog about my cravings to stop being overly worried about Pheebs, and also to help me cope with the craving. So today I have craved a Domino's pizza, and an ice cream sundae, which made me crave Cold Stone.

Ok the same infomercial is on channel 2 and 4. Lame.

So back to the cravings...I really want some diet Coke. Here is what I think about diet Coke. I am not addicted to it, I just like the feeling of holding a can in my hand. I am thinking about replacing it with light minute maid lemonade that comes in a can, for the sake of my diet. Plus all that carbon and caffeine is not good for me anyways. Mmmmm...today I also craved brownies and chocolate chip cookies when I saw them on my TV show....with a tall glass of milk. YUM!

Well, I guess I should try that sleeping thing now!

GOODNIGHT EVERYBODY!

20 in 8

Ok so I have decided that it's time to get serious about losing some weight. I decided to set a goal for myself and blog about my weight loss to hold myself more responsible, and stay motivated. So the goal is to lose 20 lbs in 8 weeks...let's just say that's where I'm starting. So if my blog gets really boring because I talk about everything I ate that day...I'm really sorry I will try to blog about better stuff too.

Current weight: 198.2
Current goal: 20 in 8

How am I gonna do it? I'm going to follow the Weight Watchers outline, but I'm not going to go to the meetings...and I also will be going to the gym 3 days a week at least to do an aerobics/weight training.

So wish me luck and keep me motivated and accountable!
