I'm officially re-starting weight watchers today!This picture was taken May 3, 2009. Approx weight: 175.2#
I had to drop my subscription last summer when I found out I was pregnant with Adeline. So now that I'm two months, 1 week and 2 days postpartum I'm ready to get my butt in gear and get my body back! I gained forty pounds this pregnancy, the most I've gained during any of my three pregnancies, but I also started out at my lowest pre-pregnancy weight and kept it under the 200 pound mark this time. At two weeks postpartum I had lost all but 14 pounds, but had 20 pounds to go until my goal weight. Well, somewhere in the last few weeks I gained 5 pounds and now I have 25 pounds to lose to my goal weight! I'm not sure if it's all the wonderful food I ate over the weekend or what, but somewhere I gained 5 pounds!
It's amazing, I can fit into my pre-pregnancy size, however they just don't look as good as they once did! Hopefully soon that'll change!

I started weight watchers almost exactly two years ago to the day when I was 6 months postpartum with Paul. At that time I weighed 177.8 pounds and at my lowest (about 3 months after starting WW) I weighed 154 and struggled to lose the remaining 4 points after that! I know Weight Watchers can work for me, it's a mind over matter kind of deal! Wish me luck! I'll try and update this daily if possible. My weigh-in day will be Mondays!
Soon I want to be able to rock that dress in the post below! That picture was from my dad's wedding last May about a month before I found out I was pregnant again!
Thanks for the support!
