Ok so my January update for real this time :)  I am now down 90 lbs!!!!  I went and bought myself 3 pair of size 24 jeans less than a month ago....and they are now too big.  Ugh...I know thats a good thing but I wouldnt have bought 3 pair had I realized that I would have to replace them so quickly, lol.  I am wearing a 1 or 2 x in shirts or 18-22 depending on the shirt.  Its so wonderful, for the first time in 7 years I can wear my husbands shirts, lol its great.  Speaking of my husband, he left for Iraq a little over a week ago.  So, needless to say things are crazy at home right now.  My children are pushing buttons like crazy and I am finding myself forgetting to eat, and forgetting to get my protein.  I am trying really hard to not forget these ever so important things, but with 3 kids and work and home life, I just slip sometimes.  I am really hoping that during the 4 months my hubby is gone I will do a DRASTIC change, I would love to lose another 30 to 40 pounds while he is away, to see the look on his face when he sees me....wow....I can only imagine how great that would feel.  I bought myself a WII fit last week, so far I have only gotten to use it once, but, its a start seeing how I wasnt exercising at all til then.  I did 32 minutes of cardio and could have done 32 more...but mommy duties called.  I plan to hop on there in the morning before work.  Anyone know how to minimize the excess skin?  I am thinking I may have to fill it in per say with muscle....so it may be some weight lifting for me.  And when exactly does the belly fat drastically make a change?  I have lost half my weight now and I still have my big ole belly :*(   Well, thats pretty much it for this month......oh except my measurments.....I measured myself the other day and have lost a total of 29.5 inches.  That doesnt seem like much to me, I wonder if I am measuring correctly?!?!?  Til next time everyone take care.
