Oh happy day

Well hello again!

My exact thoughts when I stepped on the scale this morning. At first I thought that our scale was broken, but after 7 attempts it kept saying the same thing. Baby Zeke is barely over 6 months old and (starting at what I weighed when I went in to deliver) I've managed to lose 52 pounds. The number I saw today I haven't seen in more than 7 years. I'm excited but looking forward to saying goodbye to it and hello to smaller digits next weigh-in.

Good for you!! Congrats. Getting in shape after having a baby in my opinion always sucks, but you seem to be doing a great job. As for me, I still have "baby love" as I refer to it, and am still working on it:) Keep up the good work.

Congrats!!! Looks like Zeke is putting on all the weight you're losing! And my boys talk about how much they loved Nate & Gabe's house all the time....thanks again!

Oh yeah for Julia! I admire your diligence!! I guess having 4 boys is good for weight loss! And no news here! ;)

You are doing AWESOME! Keep up the work. You'll get to where you want to be, then it will be time to get pregnant again. I want to see that skinny little body, when are you coming over?

I am SO JEALOUS. If I weighed 52 lbs less than I do today, it will have been (*counting . . . counting . . .*)SIXTEEN YEARS since I saw that number! But I did keep my favorite skirt . . . just in case. :D

I have been noticing that you look super hot! I am not a scale girl, don't own one, so I have clothing that fits milestones and then weigh in at the gym. Congratulations...that means there is hope for me!

As always I am VERY PROUD of all your accomplishments. You are a woman who, when she puts her mind to it, can accomplish ANYTHING... annd this was no small task. Congratulations on College... I guess that is coming up soon too!
"You go Girl"!
