So drumroll...I am down 4 lbs! My first goal was 10 lbs and I would be back to my pre-Carter weight. So only 6 more to go until I reach my first goal!
Remember people I am 5'1 6 lbs is a ton! I am happy to say I am back in my size 6 jeans all around! The feeling is a great feeling! Yes there are days where I would like to eat a whole pizza but I quickly remind myself how unhealthy that is. Not to mention if I do want to be pregnant again I need to be back down to my pre pregnancy weight, I worked my tail off to be healthy to conceive Carter...why wouldn't I do the same for baby #3. Plus that means lower blood pressure and cholesterol so all around its a win win!
I am still not on the work out bandwagon. I have been thinking about it, so I know that is a start. I used to go to the gym 5 days a week and have a personal trainer so not going to a gym is odd, but I know I can't. Not with work and Carter. I would have to work out at home. Do-able? Yes. Just need to get there!
I am going to make an appointment with my doctor to get off my zoloft. I know that it is for depression and anxiety however I soooo do not have depression...anxiety yes...depression no...so I need to decide if there is something else out there to take, or just come off of antidepressants all together. I depended on them at one point to just get me through the day, I would sit and count down the hours until I could pop another xanex, zoloft and or ambien. But I am really starting to think the worst of that is all over. I still feel anxious and sad and always will but I can quickly look at all the happy things I have in my life, my son, my husband, my dogs, my beautiful home, my job etc and "turn that frown upside down"

Beautiful photos! So glad that things are going well!:-)
Carter is a such a cute little man! Great job on the weight loss! I am almost to my 50lb mark, but still have more to lose. So I know how rough it is. I'm glad you're able to get off the zoloft. I hear ya about the anxiety, I hope that continues to get better for you!
Congrats on that weight loss. I'm about to embark on a little diet myself. Well, sort of. I plan to give up all sweets/sugars for a month. I did it for 3 months after losing Andrew (control + weight loss) and it was great. It made me super conscious of my consumption. I love the idea of just being conscious on weekends and strict during the week though.
