Okie Dokie...So it's been a while since I've been on and I have no excuses. Well, actually I have quite a few but I'm not going to allow myself to use them this time.

Last year I was on a weight loss crusade and joined Weight Watchers. After having 2 children, I gained a but of weight and ended up losing 25 lbs last year. Yay me, right? Errr...if only I kept up with it. I was great through the summer but once the cold weather hit I started slacking, then I just plain didn't give a crap.

There have been a few changes this year. My husband and I bought a new house, FINALLY!! We spend a majority of the spring working out butts off to fix it up, which worked great for losing weight. I am also a stay-at-home mother now. I was working part-time but things just work better with me at home...for now. So even though I have an entire day open I still haven't found time to excercize or get back on track. I also started smoking again. GASP! I know, right?!? I had quit for over 5 years while I was pregnant with child 1 and child 2, then once I started staying at home I caved. ugh. It's disgusting. Even I admit it. I'm not happy with myself for this one.

I decided I'm not making any new years resolutions to lose weight or quite smoking becuase I NEVER follow through. I'm just going to slowly change my habits and cross my fingers it sticks this time. As cliche as it sounds, I AM waiting until the New Year to quit my bad habits...just slowly this time around, no cold turkey for me: ) I am going to enjoy the hell out of the next week!!!!

I'll also post some recipes and photos of my lovely self. You may not want to see a flubby chubby butt, but it helps me to visualize what I am doing to my poor body.
