Holy cow, Batman! That is amazing :) I basically did the same thing-ate it up during first pregnancy and gained loads, then when #1 was 6 months old, I got pregnant with #2. No big gain there--but breastfeeding didn't melt pounds for me either. A little weight loss and along came #3. So now I am WORKING to lose all of it!…

My sister meets me on the 4:00 a.m. days! It really is the only thing that keeps me accountable because I know if I am not up when she gets here, she is going to be super-upset ;)

I get up at 4:00 a.m. three days a week to walk/jog. Two days a week, I wait for the husband to get home so I can go. The other times, I exercise with the family or just try to squeeze in time after everyone is in bed! I have found myself turning on the radio and just dancing with my children! They think its silly, and I…

A piece of whole wheat toast with honey on it...gonna have some almonds and a kiwi with my coffee in a few :)

I have only stayed in my neighborhood when running--no issues there. However, if I were to choose to run in some area that I felt even a little unsafe, I would absolutely carry my 40 cal semi-auto with me. And I would have no trouble using it either--the world can be a scary place :(

They eat whatever I eat. My husband doesn't care what it is! I have three children and the husband--I refuse to make a separate meal for each and every one of us. I have learned to control my portions and I try to include at least one thing that I know they will enjoy. I want my children to understand the importance of…

I have two girls, 7 and 6, and one little boy, 2. I do so much better on a journey with friends :)
