When I was pregnant with Emma I gained...wait for it...50 pounds (no judging aloud! haha) Within the first week I lost 20 of those pounds and then about 14 pounds in the three months I breastfed thereafter.

Along with losing the wait I became much more motivated to work out, I started taking spinning classes and became OBSESSED with it (can't wait to start it up again!). Weight Watchers set a 5k challenge for all its members and I started running and eventually ran a 5 mile (instead of 5k) race in about 58 minutes (which was huge for me because I barely trained and always thought I couldn't run).This time around I only gained 46 pounds, woohoo haha!! Within the first two weeks I lost 22 pounds and now that I am 5 weeks out I joined Weight Watchers again, because I believe in their program and I KNOW it works for me! I am looking to to lose about 31 pounds this time around and I am hoping my doctor give me the go ahead to start working out again. While I am nursing I will probably stick with my on demand workout videos, Wii fit workouts, and running outside. Eventually I would like to get back into the gym, but lets face it I have two babies and getting to the gym just ain't happening.
So, here is the before picture of me...

I will keep you all updated with my progress. I know that because I am nursing they don't like you to be losing too much weight, so as they say slow and steady wins the race! But one day I WILL get back into those skinny jeans, right?!?! haha, YES I WILL!

Good for you, very inspiring. You will do it again!
