Nearly 2 years later....

So I have been through a lot in the past 2 years. Divorced, sadly, last December but then re-married to my wonderful new husband and eternal companion this August! During the past 2 years I managed to keep off the weight really well until last June when I began to gain a pound here and a pound there.Exercise dwindled and then after my wedding and move to Utah in August I really slacked in the good old exercise department. Happiness is supposed to help with weight gain...so I thought. Now I refer to it as " happiness fat". Sooooo Last week I got serious when I tipped the scales at 194 pounds!!! I am resolved to never see 200 or more again unless I am pregnant again and hopefully not even then! I started doing my Jillian Michael's videos again! I have to wake up at 5am Tuesday through Saturday to be able to fit in exercise with full time school 40 hours a week so this means dedication and serious business!

Goal: 165 ( I think that is realistic)
time frame: June 2012

Today I am at 190.4 pounds
measurements ( in inches)
chest:38
waist:33
hips:42
arms:14
thighs:24

I am doing this on my blog because it gives me motivation and accountability! Stress and major life changes can take a toll on your body and so can turning 40 which I did this year as well!Over indulgence, gravity, age, temptation, stress...WILL NOT WIN!

Wish me luck!

i am glad your keeping your blog! I will like to see pictures of you, and your new life. Weight gain is so lame. I to have picked up some unwanted weight and am not liking it one bit! Don't even talk about jeans. I will follow your blog better than on face book :)
