Well, for the last month I have been setting my alarm for 6:00am, to get up before Chris leaves for work to go running and attempt to lose the last few (actually way more than a few) pounds I have been holding on to since little Gracie was born. Every morning for the last month, I have snoozed right through said alarm, and promised to start tomorrow, that is until Tuesday. I finally got my lazy butt out of bed and made the first steps toward my goal. I have committed to every other day. I am starting out slow and short. And hoping to work up to about 3miles. I know it is no huge feat, but it is alot for this out of shape, lazy mama. I am also considering joining a gym.
I really enjoy working out, but I find it hard to go run with the kids and I am not much of a morning person. This is where all my friends and family come in... I need you guys to make me accountable. I have added a counter below. It is only 5 weeks until the big day. I know that I won't be able to lose all the weight I want by then, but I hope that in 5 weeks I can at least establish a pattern and a habit to get me on my way. I want to fit into my skinny jeans by 2009. Do you think I can do it?

That's awesome. Maybe you can work in the marathon next year! :) Good luck!
I know you can do it Erin!!
I think you look fabulous, but I understand the feelings.
Good luck and God Bless ya, I'll try to hold you accountable darlin'.
Think about Jazzercise but go to one with child care.
i'm 100% sure you can do this. you can't have much to lose, so this will be more of a lifestyle change. plus, if you join a gym, the kids can go and they always have fun (if it's a good gym...worth the money)!
let me know if i can do anything. this is what i do for a living! :)
I have no doubts! You are always so good at following thru. I'm here to help anyway I can!!! Good Luck.
you can do it...you can do it...keep up the good work
