Body by Jake!

Well, this is Jake...

& I am doing my best to get rid of my "Body by Jake"!

(It's a good thing that God makes babies so cute!)

Before I got pregnant with Jake last year ~ I had decided to take control, lose weight and get into better shape. I had lost 20 pounds and was probably 20 pounds away from my goal weight. I tried my best to not gain too much weight during my pregnancy, but come on, it was all down hill after we collected 3 HUGE bags of halloween candy in October & then we went right into Thanksgiving & Christmas (Jake was born at the end of January) ~ I seem to gain like 50 pounds with each pregnancy no matter what I do! Anyway...So far, I have probably lost about 15 pounds of baby weight and plan on losing a total of 35 more pounds...I had my husband take all of my work-out videotapes (I have collected a bunch over the years) and make a schedule for me so I can just look at it each day & not have to think about which one to do that morning. It has been working well so far, I just have to stay motivated & keep the end goal in sight! I have a bunch of clothes for the fall that I am hoping to fit in...

Can't we all be fat & happy??
please?? I fell off the atkins wagon! After losing around 25 pounds..I simply stopped losing which means it was time to step up my minimal excerise routine.Which was basically extreme badminton with Bobby!and some walking.Well good luck, maybe you can inspire me again : )Jake is the most adorable guy!! I love em!
