whooo! Lost a few pounds!!

A few weeks ago, I turned 37 and it was at that point when I realized I needed to change my habits. I was not happy with my current weight. In fact, before I started my workout program last week, I weighed in at 170, just shy of what I weighed  4 days before giving birth to my last child.....I weighed 172....  You  can see why it bothered me so much. Well, after I had Leo I was lucky enough to lose all my pregancy weight (40 pounds) but over the years, I  managed, somehow,  to gain most of it back  . Of course, you would think chasing after 3 kids would keep the weight off, but the weight somehow snuck up on me. So, here I am celebrating my 37 birthday with my parents.  I know, I dont' look that big but the table is hiding the fat....scroll down to the Easter photo of Mark and I and you can clearly see just how "big" I have gotton! I am brave for putting that photo on here.

Monday, May 4, I weighed in at 170 and  started my brutal workout program with Billy Blanks. The first day, I could only handle 8 minutes. On Tuesday, I worked up to 24 minutes....Wednesday 45 minutes and Thursday I was up to 60 minutes!!  Whohooo!!

I love Taebo. In fact, Taebo is what helped me lose the baby fat after having Leo. I'll try to give a weekly update. My goal is to be around 140-145. So as you can see I don't want to lose a lot of weight. I just don't want to weigh what I weighed at 9 months pregnant.....it's a mind over matter thing....LOL!

Here is my weight as of today-167.6-not much of a lost, but it's a start!!  I didnt' work out today as originally planned because we did a lot of yard work on our rental house over the weekend and I am sore.  I will work out tomorrow!!  I have to!!!

Good luck with that! I'm basically at the same point you are. My youngest is 10 and I've never taken the weight off. I would be good at just about 15-20 pounds lighter. I don't want to be a size 6 anymore (and to think I actually felt fat back then) but I want to be healthy. It's so hard!
