So as part of the Mamavation Mom application process I have started to have more confidence in what I am doing and that I doing the right thing by making a change in my life. I realized that I needed to go back to weight watchers. I need that support and I needed a fresh start with that. I weighed in at 230 pounds...I hate that. I hate that at one point I was a lot less than that since having Josie, but you know what it is a starting place!
I also figured I needed some before pictures, not those pictures that I specifically pick to post on facebook or twitter-you know the good ones that make me look fabulous! Nope the down and dirty unflattering ones. So here they are my starting point-Holy hell at least this is the starting point
Seirously, I look like I have a baby bump! This is why I always suck in my tummy |
Another starting point for me-I did my first virtual 5k with Mamavation this Saturday. I have always wanted to run a 5K so on Friday the groupon in CT was a color run in July, so I bought it and I am signed up. So that means I need to get my ass in gear and get to it. My time 52 min and only jogged a small portion of it. But its a starting point.

Yet regardless of my starting point-these guys will be at the finish line. They deserve my best and so do I!
How was your week? I can't wait to get on all this new stuff!
You are going to rock this! Congratulations on your first 5K, and good luck in the Color Run (it's SO much fun)!
Oooh, you totally reminded me that I wanted to buy that groupon! Maybe I'll see you at the run. A color run is a great race for your first race!
Congratulations on your first 5k. I've signed up for more of them then I care to share and I've yet to complete them.
I started one of my full workout programs today (again) and I'm part of a challenge group to help keep me accountable. I think it's smart for you to go back to Weight Watchers if it's what you need.
It's a great starting point, congratulations on finishing your first 5k! It only gets better from there! :-)
You are beautiful, and I am so proud of you for taking this step. You will amaze yourself with your strength. Stick with it.
I am cheering you on!!!
Awesome job finishing your first 5k, and congrats on signing up for the one in July! We all have to start somewhere. You're beautiful, and good for you for putting yourself out there. :)
Wish you the best of luck at getting Mamavation Mom this campaign. Great job on the 5K! You have such great helpers and I know you can get there.
Yea & Congrats on your first 5K.
52 is a great time especially to start! My starting one was only 44. The color run should be so much fun. I haven't done a color one yet only a mud run and it was fun. Whoot! Whoot! Go girl!
YAY mama!!! Good job on the first 5k. They will get easier and you have such a positive aspect to everything. I am so glad I am a fellow mama applicant with you and glad we have gotten to know each other. Keep kicking butt and stay confident!!
