running....

Have I ever told you how much I hate running?  I HATE RUNNING!! But I love it too.  I get such a high when I've completed a good run.  And when I say a good run I mean 2 miles...lol.  That's a good run for this short legged girl.  I am working on it though....
Update time!!!  Nothings changed...that's kinda sad and disheartening to share with ya'll.  But it's the truth.  I still get complements everyday but nothing has really changed.  The weight I am now is a comfortable weight for me....but I'm not stopping!  I just know that I need to do something different.  I've started lifting weights, so I know that's gonna change things up and I'm thinking about doing something different with my food.  Just need to research it a little more. 
I will say that I can actually say I love myself again.  I'm not completley satified with how I look, but I have all the confidence in the world!  That alone is an amazing feeling to have again.  I feel proud to be a mommy and a wife again.  I have balance and stability in my life.  I never knew how important taking time to care for yourself and have time alone could effect my everyday life.  When I am exercising, it's my time to focus on me.  Every momma needs "me time."

20 More!

The update…. I am now down 42 lbs and 63 inches.  That means I have lost all my baby weight plus 2 more!  I couldn’t be happier with my progress.  Although the holidays have thrown me a little off my game, I’m back on it hard and heavy.  And I am loving every moment of it!!  Well that’s a little drastic but I am starting to really enjoy my workouts.  I’ve started doing an adult cross training class one time a week.  It’s brutal!! But Ben really knows what he is doing and hasn’t killed me yet.  Although he had me doing some exercises that I thought would be the death of me.  I’ve even considered giving him my emergency contacts just in case I do fall out dead.  Which by the way would be a slow painful death!  Only kidding.  I can really start seeing results.  Especially in my clothes.  I can fit into all the pre maternity clothes…some of them I would not go into public wearing but they fit! Thank you Ben!  I wouldn’t be where I am without your help. 
 So from here, I’d like to lose at least another 20.  It is gonna be a hard 20 though.  What is it with the last 20?  I see this all the time….it’s a curse or something.  Well I am determined to beat it.  I’m gonna lose this dang 20 pounds!  Before swimsuit season is my goal!  With that being said…. HERE’S TO 20 POUNDS!  Who’s with me??
