I am finally back into my pre-baby jeans - 6 yrs after having her, I'm halfway to a goal I never thought I'd reach again and I got my first comment about how much weight I seem to be losing. My whole life my weightloss has been a rollercoaster, where I'd lose a few pounds...sit there for a while...then lose a few more. I have been so envious of those people who steadily lost week after week. For those of you struggling like me, wondering exactly how many calories you should eat, how much you're burning doing yardwork, going for a walk or doing an exercise tape - there is a way to know! I swear I'm not associated in any way to BodyBugg, but it has been such a blessing for me. At the first of March I was complaining to my husband about how I was tried of guessing, getting 1000 opinions and making no progress. I had lost 4 pounds over 3 months, despite running regularly, lifting weights and dieting. He bought me the BodyBugg even though we really had no business spending the money right then. I've lost 11 more pounds since I got it March 3rd., so in a little less than 2 months. For me, just having the numbers spelled out what was what I needed.

I'm just so excited, and still a little scared that it's all going to come to a screaching halt soon. But for the first time in my life I actually am considering that I might get down to my pre-preg weight for my first child - who is now 19! 15 more to go and I'm there :)

    WOAH. Go you on the jeans. That's the way to do it--how clothes fit, not the number on the scale!!
