25ish pounds down in 9 weeks

mrsmccullen07

I started with Weight Watchers 9 weeks ago tomorrow I have since quit Weight Watchers since I really needed to learn about the food I was eating more than just about the "points" I was consuming. I lost about 10lbs while on Weight Watchers ! I started out just walking 1.4miles pushing my 2 boys in the double jogger and then I added in some workout DVD's and some running. I am now doing the 30day shred and plan to do it after I lose every 25lbs to hopefully help me tone up before I tackle the next 25 I am only 23 years old and was quite disgusted to find myself at 210lbs ... I met my husband when I was 17 (June 2005) and I weighed 135 I had some female issues and gained up to 170lbs by my graduation from high school (May 2006) then in November 2006 I got pregnant with our first son when I delivered I was at 216lbs (August 2007) he had alot of health issues and we spent most of his first year in the hospital I am not sure what I weighed but I know I never got below 190lbs when I became pregnant with our second son (June 2009) I was fluctuating between 190-195 and when I delivered him I was 223lbs (March 2010) this past July I just got fed up with being fat and decided to finally try and do something about it only July 4th, 2011 I weighed in at 210lbs .... This morning I weighed in at 184.6 !! I am finally back in the size 16 jeans I wore after my first son was born and I have packed up all maternity clothes my ultimate goal is 135lbs or where I feel healthiest !!

Ok I must admit I hate my pictures I avoid them at all cost but I think most people here will be supportive and at this time I need all the support I can get I feel like my family/friends are not supporting me at all

**Please excuse my very bad phone pictures I haven't been able to get my camera to work all summer**

This is me around 210lbs possibly a little more excuse the unflattering pajama's I was wearing Lee down to sleep


This is 205lbs. in XL Shirt and Size 18 Jeans


This is 195lbs


This is me at 185lbs last week in the same XL shirt as above with size 16 jeans


And this is my motivation & support !!!

So glad for you!! I suppose there could be days when you just don't feel like doing it all, on top of all the other stuff you do as a wife and mother, so I am really impressed that you are staying on course. I hope you reach your goal.

Wow you definately should be proud of your accomplishments. I am a Life Time Weight Watchers members and it's not for everyone. From what I've seem of MyFitnessPal I like it too. I am down 23.8 lbs since May 2011. Keep you the fantastic work for you and those beautiful babies. You can do it!

It would defintly be easier to sit on the couch but my boys are actually helping ALOT every evening around the same time its like they have internal clocks both boys will start getting fussy and my oldest will actually ask can we go for a walk and as soon as my youngest sees my excerise clothes he heads for the stroller ... They both really enjoy our walks and love it when I run they just laugh and laugh !!

On days I get dressed to do my workout DVDs they both get mad as fire that we aren't going outside but they will both get in my bedroom and bounce around while I do my workout my 18month old gets on the floor when I do pushups face-to-face with me and screams MOM over and over its so cute !!!

The hardest thing has been avoiding the late night snacking both my boys and my husband do but my husband has actually stopped doing it in front of me after I workout I take a shower and they all snack then and I get to have time to myself its awesome My husband is being great the rest of my family not so much but I have tons of support here and with my facebook friends I have found :) I think I can do it !!


And just a little NSV last week I actually went to Cato to buy me a new shirt and they had a orange one identical to my pink one which I love and I was able to buy a size Large and it fits great just like its supposed to the pink one has gotten too big now its looks awful on me so I have put it in the giveaway box
