This last few weeks have been such a mess….eating what i want, when i want and not caring that the scale is going WAY UP every single morning and that i am sabotaging myself day in and day out.  What is my problem? why cant i seem to snap out of it this time and get back on my feet?? I havent bothered to do any excercising either: ( my latest excuse is all my aches and pains and just being to tired to do much of anything.  Noelle is sleeping most nights,, so realy i am not that tired. 

I have been blaming it on my birth control pills….in the past i havent been able to lose weight while on the pill and ever since i started them a few weeks ago,, its been downhill:(  The cravings are out of this world and i cant seem to do a damn thing about it.

What is it going to take?? i look at my dear sweet children and know full well that if i dont get a grip that i will surely gain back every ounce that i have lost up til this point! I was counting calories and stopped and i just cant be bothered to do it….its just been alot of work and i hate how obsessed i become trying to find the counts on things that i eat. 

I have to get out of this slump i am in NOW….its time to make an honest effort at making better choices….Im not perfect but i have to try to be better than this!

HELP..any advice would be greatly appreciated

Well the weekend was rough….GLAD that is over with. The weight came back on after i was back to being hydrated and able to eat:( I loved seeeing the numbers on the scale for the split second that i did.  First time i saw my weight in the 360s in a l-o-n-g time!! i will get there , maybe this is motivation to do it!

My week hasnt been going to bad.  Yesterday i was within calories and today looks positive as well.  I am stil using the gyminee website and have joined a few challenges to keep me motivated.  I did my 1 mile walk away the pounds video this morning while the baby had her nap:) It feels great to get back into it! My goal is to get it done the rest of the week…i am STILL stuggling to get in my water but i am working away at it…todays goal is 9 cups!!

I am looking forward to Easter…little Noelles first easter!!! We weighed her last week on our scale and she is already 12.6 pounds!! she will be 10wks old this week…….right on track.  She is so cute and chubby…she is smiling and laughing now ; just about melts my heart when i see her. She is also cooing and making cute little sounds,, almost looks like she is talking to me:) I cant believe how fast she is growing., her clothes are starting to not fit,,, yesterday i had her in a 9month outfit and it actually fit…she is going to be tall like her parents, for sure.  She was 23 inches at her last appointment, which was 2wks ago.

Big brother is so in love with his little sister!!…it is so cute,, all the worrying i did , wondering if he would resent her or feel left out,, its not even like that at all. He is such a little helper:) My kids are the greatest:) I am so proud. 

I wish the weather around here would smarten up…Sunday was a beautiful day…sunny and +13 degrees…warm and just nice,,, well come Monday and we had a snow storm!! Yes , in APRIL…a storm mixed with snow (25 cm) and rain,, what a mess.  I was glad to not have to go out in it.  Today it is still snowing, another 3cm and its freezing outside, with a windchill!

I want the nice weather back…atleast warm enough to get outside for a walk around the neighbourhood!! i cant wait to get back into a regular walking routine!!

Thats all for today..onto the next feeding:) I love it!!

I started getting sick yesterday afternoon, feeling horribly nauseus.  By evening time i was spending more time in the bathroom then anywhere else.  Hubby went to the pharmacy to get my gravol and imodium. By the time i put my son to bed, the vommitting started:( I was up and down all night long. Ugh,, i still dont feel like myself today and i have both kiddos home,, as its a school holiday for my son. I am praying that the kids dont get this.  

I weighed in this morning as i do every morning and from yesterday morning to this morning, I lost 8.2 pounds!! This is NOT the way i want to lose my weight…..i am so miserable!! i havent been able to keep anything down and i am surviving on gatorade at the moment. 

Please god let this go away for the weekend!!! ugh!!

I am loving using the gyminee website…i have started my own page there and posted the link above for anyone who would like to see it ,,, i also have a pic there of my baby girl:)

The last few days have been my most successful since having Noelle!! I am sticking to the calorie limits and doing my excercise video…i am still feeling tired and getting through the video never felt so hard:( but i am doing it!! and thats all that matters:)

I am also making good on my word to drink the green tea and get my water in!! I am not liking getting up through the night for bathroom breaks but i know i wil get used to it….and i am up anyways for feedings; now if only i can scedule the two together haha.

I am looking forward to tommorrows weigh in….the scale looks like it will be a good one!! Well i guess if you check out gyminee, you will see my weight and i just updated it!!

Todays challenge is to stick to plan,, and for dinner is a roasted chicken dinner and i need to make the concious decision to limit myself to my small dinner plate….i am already planning on it!!

Yesterday i tried the new source yogurt with muesli….WOW!! i love it,, and highly recommend it:) I am not much for yogurt but this stuff was good,, i liked the crunch of the granola in it:)

Off to get my workout in!! My mini goal is to get into the 60`s once and for all!!! only a few more pounds to go!!

Yesterday was a good day,,my calories were in check and all was well.  I ate sensibly and felt like i had accomplished a successful day.  I didnt get in my excercise as i had planned but i made up for that today,, with a 1mile walk away the pounds video:)

I found a new website www.gyminee.com and i like the format of it.  I wasnt sure that i would carry on with counting calories, as i somehow get obsessed with it every time i try to do it.  But since finding this site, i am giving that another try.  The site says i should eat almost 2700 cals per day to lose 1.37lbs per week,, i am not going anywhere near that many calories, in my opinion that stil is too much. I want to lose around 2 lbs per week to reach my goal of 50lbs lost by August.

I was watching biggest loser and saw the one contestant talking about gaining weight since she went home and that life just got in her way and that she had to then make a concious decision to workout every day. I have to do that too,, otherwise i get sidetracked and it becomes the last thing on my mind.  I feel better after my workouts too!! The only way i can lose weight is by changing my eating habits and excercising,, its the only thing that has worked for me in the past!

Day #3 is coming up tommorrow!! and i am motivated:) looking forward to weighing in on Thursday!! hoping for a loss

Well the weather outside has taken another turn for the worse….after being up as high as +13 degrees this weekend,, we woke up to snow!!! What is going on….almost april and snow!!! ugh!! The poor lil man was so confused …..he got an early easter gift yesterday ,,, a BMX bike and then wanted to take it to school and opened the door and saw snow! Mother nature sure is playing tricks on us.

Today the little man has to get an infected tooth taken out and this will surely be a huge struggle. He is scared to death of needles and hates when the dentist has to freeze your mouth to do any kind of dental work,,, he doesnt like that numb feeling you get for awhile afterwards.  I keep reminding him that once its out, he will get a visit from the tooth fairy but at 10years old, he could care less about someone he stopped beliving in years ago haha.  So hopefully he can get over his anxiety and get through it no problems.

This weeks goal is to be more strict with myself….

1. smaller portions

2. excercise 3x this week, minimum!!

3. drink ALOT of water

4. add in some green tea every day!!

Hoping for atleast a small loss this Thursday., and hoping for some nice walking weather along the way!!

Well Friday is finally here and Ive been waiting all week for this day to come. 

My gain yesterday has me down:( I know i earned the gain and then although i had the best of intentions yestrday, i went for a walk on the dark, dull, dreary day; i  also ate like a horse and so the day was ruined because of it , once again!!

Its so depressing what i keep doing to myself…why do i think its okay to eat KFC?? for lunch?? ugh!! how can i have the best of intentions to go out for a walk and then walk to KFC and buy greasy  slop for lunch?? what the hell am i thinking?? After devouring that mess, i felt horrible…tired and irriitable and vowed to finish the day off right, food wise…then the evening comes and i have an ice cappacino and two cookies right before bed!!! WHEN WILL I LEARN?? now the weekend is here and i am dreading all the bad food choices that i will make because of my lack of willpower!!! Where did the willpower go that i had for 9 whole months of pregnancy?? and why do i keep screwing up?? at this rate, the weight is going straight back to the top of the scale:(

I have to stop myself and i dont know how,, NO i do know how and i am just not doing it!! When will i get it together again??!!

I am getting desperate to do the right thing here.  why can`t i put down the junk? i just have to do it!!
