Brittany's 16th & 17th Weeks

Last week I didn't post anything for the 16th week b/c I was in California. My mother-in-law asked me to go w/ her to visit her mom and sister on Sunday and I would leave the next day. Of course right!? California! So, we drove 14 hours there, got car sick and threw up and got there Monday night. (there was tons of traffic in Las Vegas, and later on a bad car crash that allowed us to go 3 mls in 1.5 hrs) We stayed all the way through Saturday morning, it took 12 hours that time. Anyway, so b/c I wasn't at home to weigh myself Friday morning I didn't wanna have to do it Sunday morning. I figured I'd just wait until this past Friday, and hopefully loose the vacation weight I probably gained as well, to weigh in. So finally, the results. I lost .4lb. Which means, I have lost 15.4 lbs. 14.6 more to go til I reach my goal.

oops

So as you all know I don't have the internet, so its been hard to post..But I guess after that huge fiasco with my kids getting sick, me getting those horrible hives, the side effects of the medicine they gave me left me starving, and horribly sick, it was really hard to get back on the band wagon! The medicine i had to take to get rid of the hives said on the box, "could cause depression, an increased appetite and mood swings," yeah I had all of the above, for those who know me, i'm not a depressed person, But I must say, I laid on the couch for a week trying to get over this. Finally I read the box, I know I shouldn't have, but I stopped taking the medicine.  It worked, I was back to normal in about a day or so.  It was hard getting back onto  a healthy diet after that. I haven't gained and I haven't lost either, so there ya go, my sad excuse for not doing what I'm supposed to.

Brittany's 15th Week

The beginning of this week I did not feel very well at all. My stomach hurt for the first few days. But, I worked out everyday but one. I didn't have a very large appetite either so, I guess I ate pretty well too! So, I lost 1.6 lbs this week! All together I have lost exactly 15 lbs, halfway to my goal! Only 5 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight. (22 wks postpartum) Maybe I can lose the last 5 this week! haha Yeah, I wish.
