165.5.....
Pounds. Ugh. Saying it out loud hurts!
So, I am really lacking in the motivation department when it comes to working out. I have a million different excuses but it really boils down to the fact that I would rather get those extra precious minutes of sleep than work out. I was lucky and lost all my baby weight quickly. By time Kenny was a week old, I was in pre-pregnancy jeans. By time he was about 3 weeks old, I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight. At my 6 weeks check up I was under my pre-pregnancy weight! I have since gained back 7-8 pounds! The problem is, I was in the process of losing weight when I got pregnant. I have a good 25 pounds to lose before I am really happy.
I thought I was looking pretty good, until I took this picture of my new outfit to show a friend. Uh Uh! I need to drop some lbs pretty quick.
I have started the C25K program and am planning on running the St. Pat's run in March and at minimum the Go 5K, possibly the half in April.
If you see me slacking, give me a much needed kick in the ass! Please! I DO NOT want to be overweight with a kid in middle school and still blaming it on the baby weight!
So I figure if I say it out loud and let everyone know, then it will motivate me even more. This way I can let everyone know how much I am losing!
As of 1/21/13 I weigh 165.5
Here is my before shot!
Bleh!

7 months
I can't believe that it has been 7 months since I gave birth to the most beautiful little boy. 7 months of watching this amazing person grow and change! Over half a year! Kenny has changed so much that it is hard for me to remember when he was a little cuddly newborn. In the last month, Kenny has started crawling. Most of the time he is army crawling but every once in a while he will get up on all fours and move! He has always loved to give kisses, but now he grabs your face and forces you to kiss him! He can be a little mean with it!
I loved watching him open his presents at Christmas! He didn't really care what was under that paper but he loved ripping it off! He was so spoiled!
Just a few days ago, Kenny started cutting his first tooth. It is so funny to watch him make little old man faces as he sucks on his lips exploring that new sharp thing in his mouth!
It is so hard for me to believe that it has already been 7 months since my world changed so wonderfully! 7 months since I missed my own family baby shower because I had already had the baby! 7 months since God brought this wonderful little person with so much personality into my life!
Sorry about the cell phone pics, it's all I had!
