i usually lose weight the unhelthy way, which equals quick weight loss and then thinking im fine, and it all comes back and then some. I get frustrated with the slow weight loss of this system but im feeling much better! Plus getting the kiddies involved with zumba "dancing" on the wii keeps it very entertaining. My one yr old thinks we are all hysterical!

i lost an inch but gained 2nd lbs hoping its just muscle

Had a hard day yesterday. I really wasn't feeling the whole workout thing like I usual do so i quit about 1/2 way in & i shouldn't have... :-( I've been on this new healthy life style since october and have lost 35 pounds so far but just came across MFP in january. I'm really loving it and it really helps me to be able to talk to others in my situation. My husband is a skinny thing and can eat whatever he wants... so yeah we won't go there... :noway: As you can tell i'm a little cranky today hopefully i do better on the exerciseing. i'm staying under my goal calarie count ever since i started MFP so its really helpped me. Hope to here from you guys i need any encouragement i can get. :bigsmile:

I know me too! I had such a tiny purky booty and girl parts, and not its gone south. I will have to say though I was 189 when my husband married me, after I had already had 2 children of my own and he was handsome, single, and no kids. Thought I didnt stand a chance! But 6 years and a 2 year old later, he still calls me the love of his life I would love for him to see me skinnier cause if he loves me like this ( A cranky biotch as well but with confidence in myself ) then I wonder what it will be like slimmer. He isnt one of those who wants me to stay chunky ( fluffy as he says ) he says he wants me comfortable with myself because my confidence is what drew him to me. WEIRD cause I didnt think I felt all that confident Also I want my 3 daughters to know that its ok to be curvey but not too much to risk your health. I am very active with my girls but sometimes its a little hard to keep up.
