It's nearly been a month since I decided to take a step towards losing my excess weight. I was thinking I hadn't made any progress at all, but after looking over my MFP progress chart, I realized I had lost a total of 5 pounds! I have to say, I'm pretty happy about that. My chart looks kinda like a yo-yo but as long as it shows a loss, I'll take it.
I've been walking most evenings. The boys both love to walk around town - what better motivation? G rides along in the stroller, usually humming. E likes to ride his bike. Each night he rides up to the sign on Main Street, points to the sign that says "No Bikes or Skateboards" and asks "Mom, can I ride on the sidewalk tonight?" Of course, I let him because we live in a very small town. After 5:00 PM, Main Street is pretty much a ghost town. As long as there is no one on the sidewalk, he rides it. After all, he's only four...
I had decided I couldn't bear to post pictures of myself in my current condition... but I'm going to after all. I look so frumpy and well... fat. But I need something to keep me motivated... maybe knowing I'm going to be posting these online will be the spur I need?? I honestly don't see a difference in my figure... but I'm going to focus on non-scale victories such as sleeping better, feeling better, less bloating, more energy!!
