Okay, I was all excited when I stepped on the scale today and saw that the needle had moved to a solid number! (I won't tell you what it is) But, it was definately on the number that was 10 DOWN from the number I started at! I have been trying to lose weight for YEARS! (Not just the 2 years since Emma was born) But, like 5 years before that! See, I have this rebelious streak in me, and if someone tells me I have to lose weight, then I am going to put more weight on just because someone told me to do the opposite! (Great logic, but, bear with me) Well, my very loving EX husband would tell me I was getting fat... He would 'recommend' that I go to the gym. I only saw him every 6 months or so... Obviously he didn't love me. (Which might or might not have been true, or I was just pushing him away) WHATEVER! For the last 5 and a half years I have been married to man I should have married 15 years ago! He has never told me to lose weight, he has never suggested that I diet, he has never suggested in any way shape or form that he was not happy with me exactly the way I am. I have decided that I need to lose the weight for me. I saw a picture of me, with the girls that I watch during the day, and my daughter. I am HUGE! That day I cried, and finally started making the serious changes in me that need to be made! I still have over 50 lbs to go, but, I will get there one day at a time.
Okay, happier subject! My daughter will be 2 years old in 6 days! Where did all the time go????
