I recently purchased a "fancy" camera to capture all of our family memories/experiences. As Jason and I are experimenting with the new camera, he takes a few pictures of me... Of course I was looking a hot mess. I had my mix matching pajamas on, my sweatshirt had bleach stains on the front of it, and my hair was in a scrunchi that I have had since I was probably in the 6th grade... But, truth be told, hot mess and all... I need to loose this baby fat!!
I attempted to join this weight loss challenge with some girls at work... I made it 3 weeks until I just said, "forget it, I'm hungry!" I probably could have made it longer if I wasn't feeling so darn stressed and could just stop snacking at my desk! Instead of snacking on the "right foods" I was snacking on cheese its, pretzels, and other "crap." So when the stress piled on, so did the snacking. I did loose 3 pounds in the 3 weeks that I was participating.
We are eating better at home. At least I'm attempting to cook more so that we don't rely on take out and/or pizza when we run short on time. Not going to say that my recipes are the healthiest but, it is much better than the meat lovers pizza Jason tends to enjoy!! And at least I can substitute some olive oil instead of a stick of butter!
I have this gym membership that I am being charged for monthly, so my best bet is to just hit the gym a few times a week and work at getting this weight off... Does that sound very fun right now? No, sure doesn't. Especially since by the time I get off of work I only have 2 and a half hours to spend with Alex before he goes to bed.
So, the only thing I can think of is to get rid of the cheese-its sitting on my desk and hit the grocery store this weekend and get some fresh veggies. Maybe I could start doing some exercise dvds at home, and hope that it doesn't bore me too fast!
Can't wait for spring so that I can take Alex out in the stroller and get nightly exercise like I did when he was first born!!
