Uuugghh!  I’ve been feeling unusually heavy for about a week now.  I know I have been slacking in the diet department.  I haven’t workout on the treadmill or done yoga in about a month or so.  I’ve been eating nothing but fatty foods, fast foods, and sugary sodas/juices.  I can tell that it has taken a toll on my body because I’ve been feeling sluggish/lazy, tired/exhausted, and unmotivated.  I think the fatigue is from not drinking enough water or decaf tea that I normally drink.  The headaches are from the awful sleeps I’ve been getting and the lack of excersise.  All of this will change tomorrow.  Tonight I will be eating my last big ass bowl of cookies and cream ice cream and tomorrow it is time to buckle down on what I put into my body.  I’m going to start taking my Green Tea supplements and get my ass off of the computer and actually use the treadmill instead of just storing unfolded laundry on it.  I might even do a yoga tape if I’m extra motivated in the morning.  I know I’ll be spending some time outside with my son so that will be a little bit of excersise or I might just get started on creating my vegetable garden since my veggie plants have outgrown the pots that they are currently in.  I was thinking of calling up one of the mommies that I met at one of the previous play groups to see if they would want to meet up with me later on in the week or next week even.  I need to be motivated!

I’m hoping that typing this out will be a form of motivation for me.  Knowing that my avid readers will want to know that I haven’t gone back to the “fat” me, that I’ve kept the baby weight off.  So let me spell it out for ya’ll and please feel free to ask me how I’m doing so that I can get back to where I need to be [110].  As most of you know I had lost 67 lbs.  My highest weight was 187 lbs.  My lowest was 120 lbs.  My goal is 110 lbs.  But because of my slack month last month, I gained 5 lbs.  So this means I need to bust my ass till I lose that 5 lbs. again.  Then I need to stay motivated so I can lose the last 10 lbs of my post-pregnancy weight.

Everyone always says how hard it is to lose weight.  If you have never had to do this you won’t understand how much I’m beating myself up over it.  I’ve never been heavy my whole entire life until I became pregnant with my son.  This is a whole new thing to me trying to lose weight and I definately don’t want to fail at it and be heavy for the rest of my life.  We all know the health risks that come with being obese.  I know for a fact that I will not be one of those moms that just let themselves go after having kids.
