YELP I need HELP!!!

Okay, I've hit a plateau and my motivation has started to simmer.This is not a good situation to be in; the biggest reason being I need to break through this plateau to finish off these last couple of pounds and I'm just sorta feeling lazy, or discouraged, or placid about the whole thing. It doesn't help that it's Sunday night and weekends are very hard for me to stay right on track. AND, I just want a brownie, or M&M, or whatever ya got(life is so rough sometimes). So there ya go. Does anyone else suffer through the weekend? WHat DO YOU DO?!!!

ANy SugGEStions? I'll keep working, but there's gotta be a couple of things I can try to boost the motivation. Anyone?Anyone?

My little RUNNER

How cute is that. As I got out of the shower after one of our runs I saw this. It made me so proud that Lydia's first experience with running shoes were mine! Sorry, Mommy moment. Although it is torture to run with a double, seeing your kids enjoy the run as much as you do somehow makes it all worth it.

Oh, and it is nice to have someone to cheer on on the uphill push. The last five minutes of our run Lydia and I are chanting, "PUSH!". Teamwork folks.

Thus Far

I haven't noticed how big of a change I've made in the last 7 months. I guess I'm so used to myself I haven't really noticed or "saw" the big change. It did come just so gradual. So, yes, a lot was baby weight and the breast feeding helped with that, but I've really worked my buns off. I think my sisters would be the most proud and then maybe... oh geeze I don't know my legs I guess. But I do feel happy that I didn't give in and realizing anyone can do it. It's not as hard or as bad as you think.
