Do I sound confident if I put an exclamation mark at the end?! Today I decided that my flabby post-pregnancy body has lingered long enough! I went and purchased some running shoes today, so that I could go walking. (Mom appreciated the irony, I did not) :)
Well, this afternoon after Eli's dinner, Eli and I packed up and headed to the Mall to join the Senior citizen's of Shelby to walk the mall. :) I have always made fun of this geriatric past time, but when push came to shove, I was NOT going to walk outside in the near 100 degree heat. I managed to walk around the interior of the mall 4 times and was planning on going at least one more time, but Eli was getting bored and starting to fuss. I feel I must confess that our Mall is close to the smallest in America, but it still was a feat for me post-pregnancy! I felt very accomplished, and I hope to make this a habit. Who knows, maybe one day I'll actually fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes! My goal is to feel better about myself and to look as good as possible for my hubby when he returns.
Wish me luck!
Christmas Blessings

LUCK ON YOUR WALKS. GRANDPOPS WAS LOVING PLAYING WITH ELI. WE LOOK FORWARD TO RETURN VISITS ALSO. LOVE YOU, NANA
I am SOOO proud of you! =) Let me know if you ever want encouragement or motivation. We can push each other to tread water forever or swim laps too. =) Way to go! Keep up the good work! ;)
Good Luck and walking is the best exercise EVER, especially pushing Eli in a stroller! Blue Bunny Tracks ice cream is the devil in disguise, you know. Maybe you can reward yourself after losing each 5 pounds by having a bowl. I know you can do this and the mall is cool, safe, and definitely the place to show off Eli. I am proud of you! Barbara
Weight Watchers it works I swear and its easy and you get to still eat what you want just everything has a point and you choose how you want to use those points you are given
