1 Month

Alright so here's the situation, I have not lost 1 pound since my 6 week postpartum appointment after having Finn. For you who don't know Finn just turned 1.  What the H? This has never happened to me before. With the other two kids I was down to my pre-pregnancy weight within 6- months. Maybe it's because I'm getting older, I don't know.

So I've decided it's time to make a change. I really suck at this though so I'm not real sure how it's gonna go. Come September 1st I am going to start trying to lose weight and exercise.  I am going to do it for exactly 1 month and see what I accomplish. If I am successful with less calories and more exercise I'll do it for another month, if not TrimSpa here I come. I just want to feel good about myself, get in better shape, and not throw up in my mouth when I see myself naked.

So say a little prayer for me and maybe I'll post some pictures when I'm looking hot.

I'm with you sister. I have not exercised much in a month because of different things going on, so, I will join you on the first of Sept. It will not be a compatition but maybe we can root each other on. Never hurts to try to improve ourselves huh?!
Go Brandi Go!!!

Hold on! Who's daughter are you anyway? With a mother that looks like me how could you possibly be struggling with your weight?
Sure does get discouraging, doesn't it. I will be cheering you on. I already pray for you daily, but I will continue to do so with a little more emphasis on your weight.
I don't know about you, but if I would quit cooking like Paula Dean, maybe I could loose some too.
My form of therapy is to make another batch of dough and after Lisa made Strawberry and Raspberry freezer jam I consider her an accomplice in crime.
P.S. I have several outfits, size 10 and 12. They aren't in use right now.
Love Mom

You can do it!!! You do look fabulous already though- so pretty at the pool on Saturday! If you ever want to use guest passes at the Y, I'd love to bring you with me. We could all do the aquapower class... but without Ros's swimsuit nightmare experience.

Go Brandi, Go Brandi!! Unlike you I have been able to lose a pound in then last year. Luckily I am also able to keep really good track of it so that I can find it again. If only I could find my keys.That would have been a much better use of my tracking skills this month.
