taking it in stride

on top of being an aunt i've also lost 5lbs. i've been working my butt off on my elliptical i even went a mile last night and i've only had it a week. it's so much fun especially when i step on those scales and see the pounds just coming off. i still have 25 more to lose to get to where i want to be. i didn't gain but 22 lbs with jaxon and he was exactly 2 lbs bigger than branson was. i've already lost 18 lbs of jaxon's weight so the rest is just me wanting to lose for myself. i want to get back down to pre-branson weight. i know that will make several people so jealous! haha! especially considering they just let themselves go after they had 2 kids. shoot even after they had 1 kid! they seem to think i'm so into myself and more into my looks than anything else, well i'm sorry i don't want to have the health problems they do and i care more about my appearance than looking so sloppy. it's called taking pride in yourself and how you look. so i am very excited to say i'm working out and losing weight. and i will continue to do so too. by april i plan to be back into a size 5 and if i'm smaller then i can say i'm an over achiever :)
