*Sigh* Well I'm back to work in 2 months plus a week. Last night I started going through the closet to see what fit and what didn't... sadly the "didn't" pile is very very large. I boxed up what didn't fit and now my closet has 4 pieces of work clothing in it... I have 3 options in front of me... buy new clothing, convince work to change the dress code to sweatpants and PJ's or lose weight... So we now embark on the adventures of weight loss...
I was overweight before the pregnancy, then I gained 49 lbs growing my boy and it's not coming off as well as I would like... I have a goal to lose the weight I gained during pregnancy plus substantial more.
The first step is writing down my goals... there is a harvard study that shows that students who have written goals are 10x more likely to succeed in achieving those goals. So here we go...
Before pregnancy, I was 172 lbs... I topped out at 221 lbs and now am completely stuck at 192 lbs. I want to weigh 140 lbs but that is a long term goal... my immediate concern is getting back into my work clothing. I have 69 days to lose 20-25 lbs... to keep it healthy, my goal has to be 172 lbs by August 16...
That is 2 lbs per week...
Now it's time to make the plan!!!

You can do it. I know you can. Maybe start with a cleanse? It will get your metabolism boosted and get you going in the right direction. What else are you doing?
Oh I so want to do a cleanse... my favorite cleanse is the Isagenix one which unfortunately is a bit costly... For now, I'm doing calorie reduced diet and increasing my activity level...
This is an interesting post. Calotren is essentially a weight-loss supplement but if you can also look younger besides losing weight, then it is surely worth its weight in gold. You should however, have the patience of taking Calotren regularly for 90 days along with exercise and a balanced diet.
Keep at it!! It is hard work, but worth it.
Don't forget you've got support-I know a lot of people who have tried to lose weight but have just had problems because they are trying to go about it all alone.
Also, I spell my name the same way you do and since I only very rarely encounter another Shelagh, I just thought I'd point it out :D
Best of luck!
ignoring your blog will not stop me from continually checking for an update....

Ahem! Is someone just buying new clothes?
Oddly enough, it was the need not to buy new clothes was my motivation to lose weight. During my second pregnancy, I was up to 169 lbs. It took me a year to lose the weight. I was down to 138 lbs but still not at my usual weight. I was glad that I didn't have to buy new clothes b/c I have way too many in my closet already.
Good luck, and I hope you reach your goal soon. Also, think positive thoughts.
Okay, so I saw your blog and this post and was like "OMG! ME TOO!" I have 13 1/2 month old little girl :) and I gained 50 lbs with my pregnancy! Before I got prego I was 135-140, by the end of my pregnancy I weighed in at 190-195! Now I have been STUCK at 150 + the ridiculous belly that us moms get.. I have been on a search for a plan to start and Ive had no real luck! Just excercising here and there! And the clothes thing...me too! All I wear these days are tshirts, yoga pants, etc! And since I am an army wife and my man HAS to stay in shape...I feel like the bigger wife...ya know? Anyways just wanted to say that we're in the same boat! and if you find a great plan let me know! if i find one, i'll let you know! have a great day and GOODLUCK!

Gratuluję fajnego bloga, ciekawe tematy. Pozdrawiam i zapraszam na mojego bloga, piłka nożna to mój ulubiony sport ale jest tam wiele innych ciekawych tematów z życia.
Hi Shelagh, Nice blog you got here! try visit my new post: Blog SEO Tutorial: How to Choose the Best Title For Post. I hope you will learn something from it. Have a great day!
Your child's almost the same age as me, hopefully his take on the world is better than mine!
Lol nice blog! check mine out: http://aande-tonythegamer.blogspot.com/ please and thank you :)
Same thing for me but I'm just fat in general. Meaning no baby was inside me but at one point it did look like it. Lol. Good luck! You can do it, just stay focused and motivated. What you should do is get your family involved in the diet because if your cooking 2 different meals it will be harder for you to keep with your diet.
I am about the same weight as you and struggle with my weight. I feel like I'm constantly gaining with no control, but honestly I feel like all I need is to exercise more because I don't eat extremely unhealthy ect. I think that the hardest part for me is sticking to a routine, but I wanted to let you know you aren't alone! I hope you can reach your goal plus some =)

This section of bad karmas, summarized Newport Cigarettes that might use 16 characters to express: The contact is very early; Becomes addicted to is very late; Suffers injury is very bitter; The dependence is very deep! is really the bad karma!Can remember that the matter remembers the cigarette, because parents' addiction or craving for tobacco is not small, I also am the pet who they are pampered since childhood Marlboro Lights .
About 56 years old, I have learned smoking, but also looks like the mold to be nice, at that time, was mostly in the first lunar Newport Cigarettes, the goal is a firecracker. When attends the elementary school, can hold a Newport Cigarettes Website frequently, each time holds the certificate, the father always jubilantly posts, until afterward, the certificate pasted has filled a wall.
Pastes the Newports, occasionally also will enjoy my cigarette. By now, mother regular session impediment: "the old man Newport Cigarettesdo not harm your son!"The father actually thinks otherwise: "what evil harms, man where has does not smoke?"Sometimes I received the father "the prize", sometimes also sensibly avoids. When reads the specialized middle school, weekend Newports Cigarettes Website, then held secured job schoolmates the revelry day, the school has also pushed the boat along, simply stopped to the classroom building power supply. Therefore, how many weekend's night, in the empty classroom building, can accompany me only then: Drags the candlelight, a wisp curls cigarette, thick Newport Coupons. After the graduation, the teacher middle school language, the curriculum major part concentrates in the morning, therefore Cheap Newport Cigarettes, I had and others dissimilar daily schedule: Evening gets out of bed, late at night studies assiduously, after dawn, then goes to Cheap Newports, after the lunch, whistling rests greatly.
