As predicted....

I forgot to get on the scale this morning. It was another rough night with the baby but I did remember I was going to weigh myself while I was in the shower. Once out of the shower I said "once I take the towel off my head I have to remember to weigh myself" and of course once I took the towel off of my head I put my cream in it, then brushed my teeth, then got dressed, then kissed the baby a million times... never did get on the damned scale. Maybe tomorrow.

Today I've already had a healthy breakfast of yogurt with rasins and a bit of granola and drank one full bottle of water. For lunch I had a ham and cheese toastie with some red pepper, cucumber and tomato slices and a little chunk of feta cheese. I'm working on my second bottle of water already.

I'm going to get plenty of exercise today hauling around these huge bags under my eyes! HAHAHA

All in all I'm off to a good start. Like my cousin Lissa suggested I need to make some small goals once again. I'll work on that this week. Of course the goal of losing between 1 and 2 pounds a week is long standing and still applies!

Do you have a Nalgene bottle? It holds over 1000ml/32oz so it is really handy for keeping track of your 8 glasses of water a day.

I keep mine on my desk; it also means I only have to get up twice for water rather than running to the water cooler 8 times a day.

Small steps right? I need to follow that as well..I've been taking sleep over exercise and it's showing on the scale:(

Sounds like a fantastic start! I hear you about hauling those bags around :) I like the idea of small goals, too. Like, maybe 5 pounds is your first goal, or something?

You did it once, you can do it again! Think what a great gift you are giving your daughter by getting yourself healthy! And by teaching her a healthy lifestyle from the get-go. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!
