Slim Me Down Challenge: Week 3

Image
I'm not doing so hot at this. I've gone from needing to lose the last 10-15 pounds to 15-20 pounds. I guess that's what happens when you move, put off exercise, and eat all the yummy brownies & rice krispie treats that friends bring by! Oops. So I'm up about 5 pounds from 2 weeks ago  (remember I didn't weigh in last week).  I'm sitting around 149.  I'm not very happy about that.  However, tonight I have two volleyball games to kick off my exercising this week. Then I am hoping to NOT miss a planned workout this week. I'm going to start going to the nearby gym since Big A sent "our" treadmill back home with my MIL (and ladies who have asked; we didn't ask if she wanted to sell it but seriously it's over 10 years old and not very good). BUT another one of my not-so-secret tips is : get back on the horse (read this guest post if you missed my other not-so-secret tips). If you eat a whole pan of brownies, pint of ice cream, or ski...

Slim Me Down Challenge: Week 2

Well, I haven't weighed in this week... for good reason. I have eaten too much apple crisp and had sick babies who have left me TIRED! So.... I'm not going to disappoint myself by weighing in. I'll wait another week.  However, you can read my guest post at Life with Lebedas !

Emmi from Mommy's Free Time and Jennifer from Life with the Lebedas have teamed up to start a 'Slim Me Down' WEEKLY Challenge . Each week they'll be weighing in, talking about our successes, struggles and goals. They'll be posting new recipes to try, websites to check out and support each other through the journey. While I have completed most of my weight-loss goals (for those of you who are new here, I lost 50 pounds in the last year via running and Biggest Loser DVDs...mostly running), I'm still not to my goal weight. So maybe this will help me shed the last 5-15 pounds (I'm not 100% on where I'd like to stop...but the Wii says I still have 15 pounds until my goal BMI). Starting weight: 144.6 Goal: 2 pounds in 2 weeks  (I like to take it slow) So follow the button or links and go link up because it's so much easier to lose weight when you have people  holding you accountable.
