SWEET! I can't even begin to discribe how excited I am about this week. I am offically 1 pound under my pre-preggie weight! SO SO happy!


My next goal is a little silly, but I would LOVE to be able fit into my wedding dress again. Just for kicks really...just to say I can. I was 169 when I wore it, but 2 pregnancies have changed my body, SO I'm not sure that will do it. I guess we'll see though!

I got in two jogs this week. I completed week 4 on Tuesday and then last night we all went out together. I took Munch in the jogging stroller and Hubby took Nox in the single stroller with Kaiser. I decided to try week 3 with the stroller. It was super fun for Munch and I really enjoyed having the company...but I probably should have done week 1. Pushing the stroller and jogging seriously kicked my butt. Hubby said I looked graceful and fluid jogging....he's so sweet.
Look what I got in the mail this week:

I won these fantastic goodies for linking up on Fat Ass Friday. I LOVE them. Brandy made the cute zippered pouch. How cute is that?! I love those hedgehogs...they just make me smile. Went to Kohl's today after a long and bash-my-head-in-boring visit to DPS to renew my license. While there I went a little crazy and decided to try on a some shirts and shorts in a size below what I have been wearing. And guess what? They fit...and the medium white t-shirt actually looked good!! Seriously excited. LOVE it! Can't remember the last time I was comfortable in a medium. So I may have bought that white shirt in 3 colors...I may also want it in 4 more colors. It's also possible that I was bouncing off the walls with glee at going down a size.


I got so distracted trying on smaller clothes that I missed lunch. The people at Kohl's are evil...they put chocolate at the registers...and not just any chocolate...GODIVA. I decided that I needed a treat to celebrate, which could have gone VERY badly...EXCEPT they had these:

Dark Chocolate Pearls with Mint. These fantastic chocolate gems are amazing. They taste like heaven AND are only 25 calories per serving. That's 8 little chocolate balls of goodness, people. Just enough to calm a craving. SO GOOD.

Easter Wreath

When I was organizing my craft hoard, I noticed that I had an unnatural collection of yarn (among other things, but that's besides the point). In an effort to use some of my stash I decided to wrap a wreath with it.

I also had some craft supplies hidden away with my Easter decorations so I went ahead and added those. I really love how it turned out. I have a TON more yarn...so it's possible you may see more of these in the future. :o)

Don't know WHAT is wrong with me lately. I just can't stay on top of my blog! I'm going to try and place catch up this weekend. Cross your fingers.

YEAH! Three more pounds! SO excited about this. Just ONE more till I hit my pre preggie weight. I have a lot more to go after that, but I can't wait to hit that mark.

The weather has been beautiful this week. A little windy for our walks on some days, but so wonderful.

I got three jogs in this week. I'm now on week 4 and it's totally kicking my butt. The first and second jog I'm okay and the first day I did alright for the third jog. Not so much the second night and I can't for the life of me run the last jog the whole way through. It really irritates. We'll see how my last jog goes. But this time I think I may just repeat it until I get it. My hubby thinks I may be jogging too fast. :o/ When my in-laws come over to visit on Sunday I may drag hubby out to jog with me. So he can show me how fast I'm supposed to be going. Everyone have a healthy week! I'm off to get caught up on my pathetic looking blog!

Take that Plateau! You can totally hit the road now...and don't come back cause you gave me a headache.



In other news...My buddy Brandy is flipping awesome. I opened my mail today and found this shirt in it.


It says FAST PEOPLE SUCK! Someday I'll suck too... Did I mention that Brandy rocks? I freaking love her face. She made this shirt for me. She does C25K too and she's a couple weeks ahead of me. There have been nights where I've steped out the door to run and seriously thought about repeating a week and thought "Nope, Brandy doesn't...and if she doesn't I'm not going to." She had really made Fat Ass Friday into an awesome support group. I love visitors all of the time, but my Fat Ass Friday visitors mean a lot. You guys push me to do better and keep at it. Love You!!



Don't really have much else. Hope everyone has a super healthy and happy weekend! note: Blogger keeps messing my post up. I edited it at least ten times and it still looks screwy...so I apologize for the messy post. Hugs!
