Weight Loss CHALLENGE

Well, I think it's time. My baby girl is almost 9 months old now, so there are no excuses left. If I post this on my blog and have to be accountable, then hopefully I will get the weight off so I don't have to continue to post the same weight over and over on my monday morning weigh ins. So.. the story...When I got pregnant with my little girl  I weighed between 117 and 120 pounds..I am 5' 5", so that put me at a comfortable size 2-4. I thought pregnancy would be easy and I would only gain the recommended 20-30 pounds. hahaha...thats pretty funny. By the time I delivered emma (8 days late, mind you), I had reached a whopping....wait..are you ready for it..? 175 pounds....... haha just thinking about it makes me laugh. totally ridiculous. Since that time I have lost 35 pounds, but seem to be stuck at the 140 lb mark. I refuse to buy new clothes and am stuck in the few pairs of size 6 pants that I have. So, the time is now...I have too many cute summer clothes packed away to waste them!! 
Weight goal: 117-120 pounds
Current weight: 140 pounds
wish me luck!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, you go skinny girl! I want to be between 130 and 140 but 120 sure is skinny! I haven't seen that weight since probably my sophomore/junior year of high school.

I bet you'll do it though because if enough of us get motivated and encourage each other, we will achieve! Not to mention that we are now accountable through our blogs! Bring on the cute summer clothes!
