You know you need to lose weight if...

if someone sees a picture of you thats a few years old and says "wow I wouldn't have known that was you!"

Here is the picture:


Depressing, to say the leaste...I forget sometimes that I don't look like that anymore, but I'm always reminded when a new picture is taken of me. This is the reason I have avoided having my picture taken at all cost. The few pictures that have been taken, I wish to be deleted! The sad thing is, this means I really don't have many pictures of Matthew and I. I don't like the idea of not having any pictures with my baby boy in the first year of his life! I mean, he is 8 1/2 months old which means we are not so very far from a year.

But the good news is, I've lost 4 more pounds since I last posted! Sandie and I finished our Chalean Extreme program and we've moved on to tennis and running! We started the "couch to 5k" running program. SO HARD, at leaste on my ankles and calves! But I'm really enjoying it, my asthma is really bad so this is a good thing, I WILL work through my asthma!

On another note - I have 3 weight loss goals. #1 is to be XXX (I'd rather not mention!) #2 is to be back at my pre pregnancy weight, and #3 is to be back at the weight I was when I got married (really crossing my fingers on that one) - so the good news is, I am 1 pound away from my first goal! SOOOO excited about that! Anyway, just thought I'd share my good news!

  1. Maybe we should hire a cheer squad (maybe a bunch of sexy firemen or something) and have them jog behind us. they could remind you that you only have one more pound to go to reach your first goal! And then if they don't do the trick at least it will keep you running since there are a bunch of men in costumes chasing you!
