I haven’t been on here since the end of May. That’s because I found out the reason I was getting nauseous during body makeover was because I am pregnant! Ack! We found out on June 3rd via a HPT (home pregnancy test) and confirmed it later that week at the doctor’s office. I just couldn’t believe it. I am 36 years old with 5 kids already. This was so not planned.

My weight loss goals have obviously been tabled. I do plan to pick it up again next year. The baby should be here sometime near the end of January. So…I have had to focus on healthy pregnancy.

This is shaping up to be a great week! I went to church yesterday (even though I didn’t want to leave the house) and I went to the gym today (even though I didn’t want to leave the house). I feel pretty good.

My downfall lately has been coffee creamer. I was always a black coffee drinker, but lately I have been hooked on Coffeemate French Vanilla creamer. Yum! The problem is that it has 30 calories per table spoon.

I made the decision to sign up for the body challenge 2010 at the gym. It’s expensive. It’s long term. It’s my last ditch effort.

Wish me luck! Measurements taken tomorrow.

Wow! I haven’t written since February? I can’t beleive it.

I’ve been down lately, no real surprise there. I found a picture of myself from when I was thin. I nearly cried. I don’t understand what happened…I guess the difference is I smoked then and did not drink except on the rare occasion I was able to go out.

I want to be that person again. A new body challenge session is coming up and I think I am going to do it. It’s a big commitment – a year and $1000 – but I think I am going to go for it.

I’ve been back to Weight Watchers for three weeks now and have lost a total of 1.6 pounds. I gained a pound this week and I am so disappointed.
