Mommy's the boss!

SO this was funny! I love 4 year olds!
Robert and I had to work in the nursery today. Madison decides she need to go to the bathroom. WHen we get in there I tell her we need to hurry because I need to go help daddy. THis was what she said in return
"That's because you're the boss, right mommy" "YOu're the boss of everything, right?"
You gotta love it:) They learn early!

XL

SO even though i am still stuck at a 3 pound weight loss i feel like my upper body is a lot smaller. So i went in to kohls to try on a couple of shirts. I actually got into a XL shirt and 2 dresses. Before my arms would have not fit through the holes. The shirt was sleeveless and I wont buy sleeveless shirts but it was pretty cute. Maybe when I am in a Medium :) THanks you for all of your encouragement and when you see me please keep encouraging so I dont lose my will power. That is what has gotten my down in the past. My frien Krystal has really inspired my to lose the weight. SHe has lost 40 pounds and she put up a picture and she looks absolutely gorgeous. I am sooo proud of her and i hope to be proud of myself one day. Today I was proud because I walked/jogged a mile in 17 min 20 sec and when i first started on the treadmilll it was taking me 22-25 minutes. SOrry if you guys get sick of the updates on weight but it helps to write down my thoughts! Thanks again!!!

3 weeks

SO i have been exercising for 3 weeks and only lost 3 poounds. I lost those 3 punds the first week and then nothing. I have been eating so much better. THe past 3 days i decided to stop eating carbs and still nothing. you would think with as much weight as i need to lose that it would come off easier!!! I have been doing 20 minutes of toning and 30 minutes of cardio. All i know is I am strting to get frusterated and I know what happens when i dont see results and i dont want to revert back into that mindset. I want to keep exercising and eating better. I defintely have more energy but for me that is not enough. If any of you have suggestions i will take them!! Just wanted to grip to get it out of my system. thanks for listening!!!
