June Jumpstart!: Hello!

Monday, June 2, 2014

Hello!

Hi! My name is Emily. I have never been this weight without being able to blame someone (a baby) other than myself. My baby is almost 2 and it is time for the weight to go. I know that I may never get my 4 timed C-section belly to be slim again but I can at least try, right? I tend to eat all day long. I basically eat a meal while I am preparing a meal (you know - all of those delicious "taste" bites to make sure everything is coming along) and then I sit down and eat with the family. Here are a few of my reasons for wanting to lose weight: My clothes don't fit, everything is too snug, it looks like I have been 4 months pregnant since I came home from the hospital in 2012, I'd like to feel like my body is under MY control.

Blame Kurtis! Blame Sonic! :-D Glad you're up for the challenge.

Eating all day can be good for you . . . as long as you're eating the right stuff. Or so I've heard. Let's go for a run! Glad you're back.
