5 Pounds Down!! THANK YOU, EVERYONE!

I have lost 5 pounds in 5 days!!  SHUT UP!(I mean that in a good way)  :)  Never in a million years would I have thought this would work so well!  This is awesome! 

I know that this would have never happened if everyone that I have spoken to hadn’t been SO understanding and wonderful.  It is amazing to me that people out there know what I am going through, empathize, and have a “been there, done that, and this is how I survived” attitude. 

Seriously, I haven’t lost weight in 3 years, since the birth of my youngest daughter.  Since then, I have done nothing but maintain and gain. 

THANK YOU!!!

By the way, has anyone else tried pilates?  I have done it a couple of times, and am not too impressed.  What’s up with it?  Am I supposed to not feel like I have just worked out after?  Does it even work? 

Have a great day, ya’ll!  Mine is AWESOME!

    CONGRATS to you!!!!!! That’s so great that you did it and that BS is being so good to you and you to all of us! As for pilates,here’s my 2 cents: I’ve done it all: one-on one, group, and videos. It’s great for core strenthening, ab work, healing from injuries and body awareness. Not really a weight loss thing in and of itself. And, depending what you do it may feel like nothing at all as it is sooooo subtle to start…if you’re looking fro a more noticeable change you may want to do it more often or use the time for yoga or something more vigorous. That being said it is what saved my back a few years ago so I do l love it.

    GREAT JOB DONNA!! See, no need to change anything. You’re doing awesome. I’ve tried pilates and I felt it wasn’t for me either. I went to an advanced class where I couldn’t do a lot of the moves they were doing and I didn’t have the patience to work up to it.

    Keep up the good work!! You should be so proud of yourself, considering all that’s on your plate.
    Thanks for your comments of the Ex, it’s nice to know that I’m not in the boat by myself. Sometimes it get overwhelming and think that no one understands what you are doing through until you meet someone else in the same situation.

    I also have one of those “friends” that can’t quite get it. He claims that he understands but then gets his feelings hurt..ARGH!

    Anyway, sounds like you are a great mom.
    Take Care!
