Good Wednesday Morning!
I have to say my first 3/4 of a week has gone great. I love having my time at the YMCA working out and I think it's what the doctor ordered - plus, I am away from the kiddos for a bit!
I am really 2 days shy of a week because I started my workouts and diet last Friday, but because we will be in Chicago Wednesday, Thursday, and possibly Friday, I thought today would be a good day to check in.
I am really surprised how well my body just started back up again. It's like I never took a break from working out. I have even accomplished something I have never done before - I am up to 30 minutes on the eliptical - YAHOO!! My goal is to make it to 45 minutes and then up the intensity. But for right now, I am happy with 30 minutes on the weight loss interval program!
I am also riding the bike and walking on the tread mill.
My mom has been going as well. We try to make it at least twice a week together. She's doing GREAT!
So, for today weigh in......
Weight loss: 5 lbs (5 days)
I will weigh again on Friday just to see where I would be for a full week.
I am a bit nervous being away from a fitness center for 2 days, but maybe I can walk laps around the hospital while Riley is in the MRI.
Check in on Friday for a full weeks report.

So good to hear you take some time for yourself, its hard to do that when so much is going on! Kuddos!
Now I have a selfish request... I had my big anatomy ultrasound yesterday, and it hit me that my kids are about to double... since you are the only twin mom I know that has had another set, I need some advice. Give me whatever you've got!!! :) When you get a chance, of course!
Take care! Way to go Riley!
Way to go 5 lbs in 5 days! I'm envious! its taken me a month to lose 7. I'm glad for you that it comes off so quickly. I'm celebrating though no longer being on insulin drugs - shots 2x/day, and about 8 pills per day! When you get a chance (not like you don't have anything going on)- I'd love to swap meal/snack ideas. I'm getting bored eating the same thing. K
yeah Riley!!! Anna is going to be so jealous :) she's been trying hard to wiggle those teeth...but nothing yet!!!
Did the tooth fairy come???
