The weather is warming up, perfect time to be outdoors for exercise and to eat fresh and healthy. You are beautiful inside and out - focus on being healthy, not on your weight, and you'll be slipping back into your favorite clothes in no time! Hang in there, mama!!

I've had a lot of luck with cutting carbs. It's so easy to put away a bag of pretzels or tons of bread, but just trying to replace those with carrots and humus or PB on toast to be more filling has made a difference. Like 5 pounds in a couple weeks with no other changes made difference. Good luck! No one's competing for Miss America, we just want to look and feel good about ourselves - I think of it as making our God-given body shine.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11830386616787112083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080789300460674006.post-59423847201874148312014-05-17T11:28:29.876-04:002014-05-17T11:28:29.876-04:00I had a harder time with the weight with my third ...I had a harder time with the weight with my third as well. There is 5 years between my 2nd and third so I was a bit older than with my other two. The last pregnancy I ate what I wanted because I knew it was my last and I paid for it. I think you look wonderful though. <br /><br />So happy that your husbands test came back clear!Kellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04104100135764091440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080789300460674006.post-9658665698810961712014-05-17T09:52:49.446-04:002014-05-17T09:52:49.446-04:00It's hard when your clothes don't fit…..yo...It's hard when your clothes don't fit…..you don't feel good inside or outside. IT will happen. The weight will come off; just give yourself some time.<br />SO glad Dan's test was good/clear. I too would want to go back sooner than 5 years though. <br />Kelly Ripa is a blabber isn't she???

Thankfully it's farmer's market season and that always helps me eat better - is there any way to shop local? So much more appetizing than rice and quinoa, and I bet it would help with the weight loss! But seriously, it's also only been a month.
