My NSV......... still can't believe it:)
So today I made a Target run. They have weights on sale this week so I went to pick some up. My Target store has a StarBucks and usually I treat my son to something if he's been especially good (hard for a 4yr old boy whose mom drags him through every sale rack in the store), and lets face it, I get something for myself…

Just getting started:)
It's true what they say about after turning 30 everything slows down! I've just begun counting calories and am one month in on my gym membership doing what my trainer tells me. My profile picture is from June 2011 and hopefully by next June these stubborn 40 "baby" pounds will be gone for good!
