Introducing Candy


Hey there.  I'm Candy and I'm a stay at home mom to 3 kids. I'm trying to lose the last of the baby weight, even though the "baby" is 18 months old.  That's still baby weight right?  Right?  Right!  

So anyway, I'm about 10 pounds above pre-pregnancy weight and about 35 pounds or so to where I'd like to be.  Hell, I'll just say it ....I weigh 183 pounds and wear a size 16. (picture my shocked face here)  I never really thought I'd be here and it's funny, sometimes I look in the mirror and I still see that slim 20 year old looking at me. I used to be able to eat whatever I wanted, but now I've really had to learn how to eat healthy.  So that's what I'm doing.  Less calories in, more exercise and loads more water.

I've got a mini goal of being at 175 pounds for Thanksgiving and a long term goal for February.  We're going to Orlando (yikes, bathing suits in the middle of winter!) and I want to look as good as my two beautiful sister in laws!  Seriously, though I love them, it's hard being the fatty in a swim suit around those two.  ;-)  So I don't know how much I want to weigh, but I want to look awesome.  Is that too much to ask?  I don't think so!

So, that's my story.  I'm looking forward to this journey with these awesome women and I hope to get to know you all better too.
