A Big Loser

That would be me! Not in the way you guys are thinking. I am a big loser b/c I'm officially half way to my goal weight. After I had Charlie I immediately lost those pounds (40 to be exact)that come off so quickly within the first few weeks, but that soon hit a plateau so I had to do something. I have lost 15lbs within the last 12 weeks. WHOHOOO!!! I now have 15 more to go! Some of you are wondering how I did it, well I really didn't go on any diet per say. I kind of made my own food limitations for myself. I cut out bread, pasta, and chips. I have been eating a ton of vegetables, (which is great b/c that also helps in the digestive process), meats, cheeses, etc. There were about 4 weeks within the 12 where there was no weight loss and if that happened I would just limit my intake of sweets. I would say that I worked out every day but that would be a lie. I probably have worked out about 6/12 weeks. I never thought it would be so hard to go to the gym with 2 kids, but we've been battling this never ending cold/virus and if Thomas isn't sick then Charlie is. I made myself a monthly goal chart and put up some inspiring words on my refrigerator to help with any temptations. So some of you are good at math and figured out that I've lost 55lbs thus to date since having Charlie. I am according to the scale back to my pre-pregnancy weight but I'm going for the other 15 to get back to my college weight...so wish me luck:)
