I'm feeling much better. Thanks for all the words of encouragement and prayers.
I went to my yearly check up at my OB/Gyn. My doctor asked me if my husband went for that vasectomy and I said that he hasn't and that I'm interested in oral contraceptives. She asked me if I already had one in mind and I answered, " my husband wants me to try YAZ." You know the one with the commercial with the upbeat music " we are not going to take it.. no we are not going take it any moooooooooooore..." and you see women kicking irritablity, moodiness, etc. Hubs said that it suppose to help with PMS. "babe, you need this." So, I went home with a prescription for YAZ. I hope that I won't get fat ( last time I was on oral contraceptive I blew up and gained 15 pounds).
I got my weight checked and I gained 10 lbs. I was so upset. So I was debating to do Jenny Craig but when I looked into it ... I just don't want to be bothered by talking to consultants on a weekly basis. So I 'm truly cutting out sweets and really going to try portion control. And of course, really be compliant on an exercising regimen. Why am I obsessed all of sudden? Well, I told myself that I'd treat myself to a new dress for a wedding and I set forth a goal weight and now the wedding is the day after tomorrow. I am no where near my goal weight. I wasn't really trying but I was hoping going to football practices and running here and there , I'd lose all the weight. Instead, I gained weight. Muscle mass maybe. NO, I really look big. It didn't really help going out and trying on dresses with my friend who is like a size zero. Here she's trying on so many cute dresses and everyone of them looked great on her and here I am struggling to get into dresses and coming up looking like a big balloon. (think of the girl in the willy wonka chocolate factory, violet, who blows up in to a big blueberry... ME) So I treated myself to a new pair of shoes... thank goodness, feet do not get fat and new shoes always look good on my feet.
So, I am going to really get serious. I even took a fully body picture which will be my before picture. So wish me well and whenever you see me please let me know that I'm looking good. hahahhaha Just kidding.

You always look so great! And I always think that you have a beautiful face too. Yeah, I know what you mean by the weight gaining even though I'm exercising..I tell myself it's the muscle being developed. :)
Wow, your feet didn't grow? My feet didn't swell during pregnancy, but it actually grew a 1/2 size bigger after I gave birth. I had to buy new shoes and throw out some my old ones.
We should get together soon, ok?!!
my feet swelled 1/2 a size last pregnancy! you're so lucky you have nice feet. i have to buy ugly shoes just so they're wearable :(
good luck with the weight loss plan! i'm rooting for you!
i wanna see you so i can tell you that you look fabulous in person!
taking care of oneself is a really hard thing to do, esp after having kids... i'm glad that you're doing it. you're inspiring me!
yeah, i'm with beannie and rbk, i can't quite squeeze into my old shoes. not the pretty ones anyway, but i still bear the pain once in a while, just to feel good. ;)
I think you look hot!!!! one hot mama... muah...wm
i know how you feel. i need a quick kick in the butt myself. i find myself avoiding my reflection in full length mirrors. either that or i unfocus my eyes before i look so i don't have to see my real reflection (just kidding). i also am inspired -- to start an exercise regimen! and to buy shoes!
