Chris1979's Journal, 14 June 2010

Monday! Well, I'm posting another loss which I am happy about but I must say it's because 2 year old Izzy kept us so busy we literally forgot to eat dinner on Saturday night! Don't worry we did feed her. She was a bundle of energy and a ton of fun but WOW I had no idea how much work it was to take care of a toddler. Both of my arms and my back hurt from carrying her (35 lbs). Even now this morning I had to take some pain meds. Lol~ I feel sooooo out of shape!

After we dropped her back off last night and came home we were so tired but at the same time it felt like our house was so empty. It was bittersweet. What can I say chasing a child around is good exercise AND entertaining!

I'm trying to keep this loss going... steady goal of loss of 2 lbs per week, which would put me at 142 this Friday and 140 next week. Definitely should be able to attain my goal of 139 or less by month end.

There is a $10 off $50 Old Navy coupon
here.

THREE THINGS I'M GRATEFUL FOR TODAY:
1) Got to work at a decent time so we won't have to stay late today
2) Going to the beach this weekend so something to look forward to
3) Very close to winning another Swagbucks giftcard... only 7 more to go!

Have a nice Monday! :)

Yes you must have got quite the work out running after a toddler and you're right it sure does seem quiet after they leave. You are doing great with your weight and I'm sure you'll have no trouble at all attaining your goal. Have a great day!

Hi Chris! Great job on your weight loss! I was finally in the 144's this week too :) Just think we are almost the the 130's...Yeaa!!! I don't think I have been there since 2006 :)We can do it by month end! I have a 2 year old son and he sure keeps me running like crazy. I have mastered the one arm carry pretty well which gives my arms a pretty good workout :)

Wow. Two pounds a week is AWESOME. Would be wonderful to keep that up. Sounds like you're on track. I will say that maybe half of my improved arm shape is from exercise, but mostly it's from hauling a two-year old off whatever dangerous precipice he's balancing on and up and down from the toilet, etc. I love when my husband loses his mind after a couple hours alone with our son. Makes me feel sooo much better about myself.
