Week 6; With all good intentions
So this week started off with all good intentions, I was super excited and motivated I was at 176.2 and I was ready to rock n’ roll my way down to 175. But . . . {insert excuse here}
- We had a coupon to all you can eat pizza buffet and it was about to expire
- It was Halloween and people kept giving me candy
- I got drunk with my friend and ate a bunch of chips, then hangover food the next day
- After the hangover food the next day I just was distracted and couldn’t get back on track!!!
- AGGG someone stop me before this turns into my life again and again.
I have weighted in today, but since I am in rebound from last week I’m not going to count it (178.2) and I’m setting my goal for the upcoming week at 175. I have to keep this weight loss train rollin down the track there is no loosing sight of the end now that I’m in the second half of the game.
Over at the Body After Baby headquarters, mamanotes.com, the new challenge this week is sleep. Always a contentious point among mothers as we tend to not get enough sleep so for this weeks challenge each night you sleep at least eight hours you get a point. Maximum points for this week is 7- one point possible for each night from tonight until next Tuesday.
Since we co-sleep I don’t really wake up except for once to bring him to bed with us so I just have to make sure to go to bed with enough time to get 8 hours of sleep.

Excuses? I have a million!
Anyway, we can just do better this week, right? But then there’s that candy…
Well, good luck with week 6!

I can come up with even more excuses. lol.
Good luck with the rest of the challenge!

It is all down-hill from here. Let’s keep moving forward. Good luck on meeting the sleeping challenge. It will be a hard one for me. God bless you and your family in the coming week.

We co-sleep too, and it definitely makes it easier to get sleep in. Baby hungry? Pop a boop out of your nightshirt and you’re set! Thankfully, my baby usually lets me sleep in (so long as I wake up enough to let her nurse!).
Good luck getting back on track – I gained weight last week too.
