1. I am never around on Sunday or Monday

2. I was sick last week & my house was in ruins (isn’t that like 2 reasons?)

3. This mysterious glowing orb was over my house-I was concerned until I realized it was the sun.

4. My flowers, that I lost all hope of ever coming up after I transplanted them 2 years ago, are blooming.

5. My hubby got off early on Saturday

6. We went out with a bunch of friends

7. We stayed out until 3 a.m.

8. I had to recover.

9. Hubby was off for 2 days in a row again! (I know, I shouldn’t get used to this)

10. Taking photos with my “baby” is time consuming, yo!

I hear that Jillian Michaels is one tough cookie and that she really puts you through the paces.  Sadly, those paces include push-ups.  Its not that I like push-ups, okay well I don’t, but I can’t do them save my life right now. Remember my wrist injury? Since I can’t put a lot of weight on my wrist-and somehow I think that 184.5 is a lot-and I am not skilled in the one handed push up, I sadly walked away from the idea.  

Then Christina had a marvelous idea that she has done in the past-Hot by BlogHer! Now I am not really attending BlogHer-but I will be in Chicago that week and I will be attending the People’s Party-so I still need to look hot, right?  Plus I need some motivation to get rid of the rest of this weight.  Oh I wish I could claim it to be baby fat-but sadly I am heavier now than I was when I gave birth to Giggles.  Throw another 25 pounds on me and you have me at the biggest I was with The Chicken.  My spare tire has come from getting older-once I hit 26 all bets were off and my body didn’t let me eat what I wanted to anymore.  I have horrible eating habits-I don’t exercise at all enough-and for the most part I haven’t really cared.  

My hubby was heavier than I was and I was okay with that.  Then he suddenly started to lose weight.  He looks good now and while he still weighs a few more pounds than I do-literally just a few.  I don’t want to be heavier than him, the bigger one in our relationship-I want to be proud of my body and how I look.  So thus I am here-trying to get Hot By BlogHer. 

From here on out I will post my updates on Mondays for my weight. I am hoping that it will motivate me for the rest of the week and you guys can hold me accountable.  So here are my stats to get us started

Height 5’10″

Starting Weight 184.5

Starting BMI 26.42

My measurements

Upper arm 13″

Thigh 22″

Waist 35″

Hips 42″

And finally a belly shot of me-don’t know if I am going to be posting these every week.
