Breakin' it down!

I broke the 180's! I LOVE to say goodbye to a "group". I feel so accomplished and then vow to not step back to that number group again. It feels sooooo good.

This Friday's weigh-in - 179.4
the scale actually said 178.2 a couple times...but I'll go ahead and take the high road. Don't you hate it when your scale messes with you like that?

Today, I was going through some clothes for the yard sale coming up. I took a glance at jeans that I am now 2 sizes too small for now :) and felt so proud of how far I've come. I've been going at this whole weight loss journey since December. I haven't done anything drastic. I've cut down on portions ( most of the time) and tried to fit in exercise. This is by far the longest I've ever worked at losing weight and I'll just say it - I'm proud of myself!

Yesterday, we stopped in at a Chinese restaurant for some lunch and I just happened to notice a mother and daughter eating close by us. Since I've had Lucy I've been very concerned with being an example for her. Kids learn so much from us and I think it also a parents responsibility to show their child how to care for their bodies. Not that I was sitting there judging this mother but, it was obvious that both mother and daughter were very overweight. I then noticed that between the both of them they had 4 plates of food and both left anything that resembled a veggie on their plate. This reminded me of why I'm doing this. I don't eat perfect all the time and I don't exercise all the time. However, my goal is to eat right and exercise most of the time so that sometimes we can have sundae parties and pizza for supper. It's nice to look better in my clothes and not feel like a hippo everytime I leave the house. But, it's even better that I have much more energy to play with my little sweetie.

That's all I have for now. I've been keeping up with Turbo Jam and so far- I am loving it. Just the 20 minute workout leaves me soaked! I haven't done all of the workouts yet so, I'll save the review for when I can review all of it.

Toodles!
