10 lbs.

Ok, I have got to lose it. I've known about it for about 2 months. In fact I freaked out on E on the ride back from the 4th of July. I think a lot has to do with Baby Noodle not nursing as much... and me still eating like he is! And now I am trying to feed him more soilds, and he's a real picky eater. I have NO idea where he got that from.

So, I think I'll start walking in the morning with BN. It's too hot in the evenings. It was 100 degrees at 6:30pm! I have a membership to a gym, but BN won't stay in the childwatch. And I'm not too crazy about leaving him. We're enjoying the pool... but not getting in the bathing suit. Ugh. So we're canceling the membership.. they close the pool on Labor Day.

My friend and I were walking about 3 miles a day in May, and I really could feel a difference. I felt so much better, and actually lost about 5 lbs. So, I know I can do this! I'm going to try to post what I do. I know that isn't very interesting... but I hope someone will get on my ass if I don't :).

I've always had to battle with my weight. I hate it. At one point in my life I actually weighed 180 lbs. That was when I was trying to finish up in school... and I had an awesome boyfriend (now husband) that has a super fast metabolism and a huge appetite. As soon as I had my promise ring, I realized I better get on the ball. I lost about 40 lbs. in 5 months. I promised myself I would never gain that much weight again. It was so hard getting it off.

Well, better hit the sack. I hope BN sleeps well tonight. It wasn't pretty last night... 11pm. and woke at 6:45am. Not cool.

you can do it! i know you can. and you don't need the membership to do it. adam and i right now are taking turns running in the evenings. i'll go first for 30 minutes and then he'll head out as i'm walking in. one hour later and we are both done with our workouts.

and yes, post it here!! i love to see progress and read about people's diet and exercise.

good luck and keep us updated!
