Weight Loss Wednesday

My sweet and lovely friend Jennifer from, Rosey Little Things is hosting a weekly post on losing weight every Wednesday hence the name, Weight loss Wednesday. It's going to be a an excellent place for woman of all ages, sizes and background to come and support each other on losing some weight. Face it, we all have a little bit of weight we all want to lose. Either from having kids or just the extra we all add from holidays. It really doesn't matter how much you want to lose, could be 5 pounds or could be 50. Weight loss Wednesday will be a great place to go and get a little bit of support!

Check it out here for more info. I am joining since I have probably about 10 pounds I would like to lose before going to Brasil. Ill be going when its swimming season and its going to be so hot all Ill probably want to wear are dresses and little skirts....so....bye bye 10 pounds....you gotta go!

When I had Christian I really stressed out about the weight I gained when pregnant. I think I lost like 30 pounds after his 1st month birthday. I really didn't relax and enjoy him being little...so with Carter I really didn't pressure myself to lose any weight....I really enjoyed him little and wasn't so selfish about just caring about me....

So, its time to lose this weight...and Weight Loss Wednesday has come at a great time!!! I have about 3 months to lose this weight.

My biggest demon is anything sweet. Ericson calls me "formiginha" which means little ant in Portuguese because I love absolutely everything SWEET!!!!

I was at costco yesterday and all the holiday sweets were all out. I just was thinking like....how the heck am I going to survive the couple of holidays before Christmas!!!!

This week I lost about 3 pounds....didn't really exercise but did eat a lot less and I have to contribute it to the heat. It's been about 102 outside and when its that hot...who feels like eating???

We also had a renter in my craft room for about 2 months who turned out to be bipolar so thats why it only lasted 2 months. So I had to move all my stuff in the garage and now that she is gone I moved everything in the room yesterday! So, I sweated a little doing that!!! I have so much stuff and its sooooooooo HOT!

I will be opening up my new shop soon and have a huge giveaway ....so stay tuned. I think I will have more time now to blog a couple times a week. If you haven't already....follow my new blog Littlemissheirlooms.blogspot.com I haven't posted anything there yet but I will pretty soon with a fun giveaway...

Here are some pics of me in Brasil....this is how the family remembers me...cant go back the way I am.............

Here is me and ericsons cousins

I feel the same way before I go back to Bermuda and see all my lifetime friends and relatives.
That won't be till next Summer. (God willing)
But i have about 8 lbs to lose and want to firm up my non muscles!

Ooh, sweets are my downfall too! Way to go and don't forget that sweets in moderation are OK, don't deprive yourself! Especially at Halloween! Popcorn balls are my fav lower-calorie holiday treat!

I decided to join and like a crazy woman .....I posted my weight.

Oh well,the world wide web..Knows how much I weigh now~LOL

I am hoping this is just the jump start that I need:)

10 lbs should come off in no time....you look great already but I know that it is how we feel about ourselves.

Keep up the good work!!
