Weight Loss Update

New blog. New Weight. I love my new blog layout and love that I lost some weight.
Here are current pictures of my weightloss update. I am 127 lbs! My original goal was 122 BUT I am pretty content with my weight right now. Also weight doesn't matter all the time. One of my best friends is 10 pounds less then me, same height and we wear the same size. So you can't always base it on your weight. If you have a lot of muscle it can weigh a lot too.
The only thing I want to do is tone up a lot. Especially my stomach! After having three kids, yesss this is my problem area and even before kids was always my problem area. I started doing squats everyday. That is pretty much all I do and planks. I am not a big runner. Actually I absolutely dred the even thought of it. I always thought running was the best exercise but I feel squats and yoga are my favorite, for me. What has helped me a lot too is that I do my squats with my house work. When I fold my laundry, which I do everyday I sit in a squat position the whole time I am folding. I know weird, huh. My husband laughs at me! I am telling you I have seen results! I also like doing it while I am doing my laundry because I don't have to get a babysitter, get ready to go to the gym and waste two hours of my day. Saves time for my kiddos.
Pictures of my weightloss journey.

My heaviest pregnant at 158 pounds. 

My heaviest not pregnant at 145 pounds. This was me right after I stopped breastfeeding my last son. With all my kids I have never lost weight quickly because of breastfeeding. I would actually gain back. I didn't care though. I didn't like to worry If they were getting enough nutrition or not.

Now that I have lost weight it is time to get fit! Well just a little toned.

  4. Congratulations! I too am on a weight loss journey. I'd say we started in about the same place. Not sure where I'm at right now since God called me to give up the scale (http://www.lisalewiskoster.com/2014/03/gods-crazy-commands.html) but I can get the jeans on. Now, to move in them! Following on fb & twitter - I'd love a follow back!

  5. First of all you look amazing to have had three kids. And squatting the entire time while folding laundry sounds intense! And clearly it's working; awesome!

  7. You look fabulous! I know you are extremely proud. I am around your same weight and started doing Jamie Eason's workouts at home 6 weeks ago and have been so happy with the toning results along with the clean eating I've been doing for a while. I bought 5 and 10 lb weights to use.
