The last two weeks have not been great for me in the weight-loss department. That's actually putting it mildly...here's the truth...I basically FELL OFF THE WAGON.

I didn't lose or gain this weigh-in.
I could offer up a bunch of excuses but I won't. I'll just start over and do better. My goal for next weigh-in is minus 5 pounds. I can't say I'm not disappointed that I've let 2 weeks go by without making any progress, BUT in a way I'm sort-of glad. Although it will be hard to get back on track, I'm actually looking forward to the challenge. Losing weight started to get too easy, if that makes any sense. Now I have to recommit and work harder especially through this holiday season. So, really I'm glad I had a bad weigh-in, cause it's only going to motivate be to do better next time.
Oh, I just remembered...I promised to post pictures when I fit into my "too small" jeans. Well they fit! But pictures are still not my friend. I FEEL much smaller that I look and that is kind of discouraging when I see pictures. I am about to do something completely horrifying and post pictures of my bum. Yes, I just said, my bum.
*The picture to the left was taken in July just before I started my weight loss journey. It actually greatly helped motivate me because although I have aways known I have a big tushie, I was not prepared to see just what I looked like from the backside.
*Picture on the right was taken a few days ago, almost 30 lbs. lighter in my "too small" jeans. Baby still got back, I know. But it is looking better if I do say so myself.
Oh my heck, I can't believe I just did that!
This really is totally embarrassing. Oh, well...here's two more.
*The picture on the left was taken in February on my 36th birthday, 2 weeks after having Aftyn. I actually weigh not too much more than I do now, but hopefully I'm looking a little better.
* The picture on the right is taken the same day as the "butt" picture, just a few days ago.
You could wish me luck though, that might help. ;)

Nancy, I'm seriously diggin' those pics! You are so awesome for getting things done at a time that is so easy to just let everything important to you go. Here's my motto, "Nancy said NO EXCUSES!" Oh great! Now I have to do it!
Hey Nanc, we all fall off the wagon for a week or so. But you're getting back on! And you look great!!! Wahoo! Keep it up!
For what it's worth, last year's Christmas season went pretty well. Instead of doing my baking all through the month, and eating tons of my sweets all month long, I did my baking the week before Christmas. It helped me to have the goodies available only during that week, rather than the whole month. Granted, we still got treat plates from neighbors...but I tried to choose my indulgences wisely. Also, I kept eggnog out of the house until the week of Christmas. It helped last year. Good luck to us all this year!! ;)
You are doing so well. I'm so proud of you for what its worth. Looking at the bright side when you fell off the wagon it wasn't too far because you did not gain. That is a really good thing. Getting back on so quickly is even better. Keep going. I may not have had time to post my journey yet but you inspire me and I have lost 10 lb. so far. Not much but I will take it. Keep going, you are fabulous.
You look fabulous. Amazing. Truly. That is so motivating to see the progress.
I am excited to just follow this whole journey and learn from you. And in a few months, I am hoping to join you!!
