Steph - I don't want to start a debate or anything. I have always been very ANTI-tanning. I tanned for 3 weeks before my wedding so I would be even in my pics. Right now, I think it would give me the self-esteem boost I need. I will only sign up for one month. I also keep my face covered the whole time.

Kelly, you go girl with your MILF outfit! I really wanted to wear one too but I have actually been gaining weight. I just found out my thyroid is really slow so I am hoping to get some more energy and then work on the weight issue, so maybe by the 4th of July I can wear a MILF outfit.

Thanks, Lisa. Hope you get your thyroid under control. We'll have to make a MILF thread for all our pics this summer.

I fit into another pair of pants today!

I am so with you on the MILF idea. I ordered a cute top and dress from Victoria Secret with my bathing suit for this summer. I would LOVE to wear it to Charlie's bday party. We'll see how it looks.

hahahah You girls crack me UP! I think it would be awesome to be considered a MILF! Right now I think I am FAR from that. Yeah Christie let us see what you ordered. There is a ton of things I wanted to order from their catalog but I am waiting for the "girls" first!

I got a workout in the last two days but I had fried chicken for lunch. One breast and not much else since I didn't like where we went...Buffett and I am NOT a buffett girl. I get all grossed out thinking about stuff. But anyway...I have a baby shower to go to at 2 and there is going to be turtle cake... I may be able to resist but I doubt it.

Victoria's Secret - Wireless push-up halter top

I got this dress in black

Victoria's Secret - Ruched halter Bra Top dress

I got this top in orange (to wear to Charlie's bday or if not there to a football game or two)
Victoria's Secret - Blouson tube Bra Top

That's it!

Christie-you WILL be a MILF in those outfits! LOVE the bathing suit, there better be pics I've never ordered clothes online or from a catalog because I never know what size to get, but now that there is less time for shopping I should.

Kelly-that is awesome you are in more pants!

I've been hungrier these past couple of evenings after dinner. I think I need to eat more fruits and veggies as snacks. I've been doing good calorie-wise, but not necessarily nutrient-wise if that makes sense.

Haven't officially worked out, but I've been cleaning the house and dancing around with Avery. Hopefully if there is time, we can get out for a walk since the weather is nice.

Hello!!!

Lisa~ I think you are already a MILF.

Kel~ See above.

Christie~ That suit is CUTE!! I love the dress and tube top, too. I wanna see pics of you in them when you get them!

I got in two more workouts (one fri and on sat.) They were low impact sicne I STILL can't breath and I am still coughing up a storm, but at least it was something. I weighed in this morning and lost another 1.5 pounds! So that means 5 baby pounds to go! (too bad I need to lose another 15-20 after the baby weight. )

With that being said.....DH and I went to the Cheesecake factory last night for my birthday. (it's tomorrow and we both work - he's on graves so we won't get to see each other.) I got a peice of the Godiva Chocolate cheesecake. I only ate half of it and made DH eat the rest. MAN WAS IT GOOD!!! I'm going to go get on the treadmill and see if I can work off 1 tenth of it.

JEnna - I bet that cheesecake was soooo worth it.

Christie - I think those clothes are so cute. I'm going to have a hard time finding a cute top b/c of my "girls"

Bina - IKWYM - Now that I've discovered baked tostitos and the WW ice cream has been on sale, I don't eat as much fruit when I should.

Bina- Good luck with the fruits and veggies, that was never my strength either. I also buy the fruit juice popsicles. They are 25 cals, so 0 points, and let me "think" I am eating ice cream LOL

Thanks about the clothes. We will see how they fit and then determine if you get to see a pic LOL

Hey girls,
Everyone seems to be doing so good

I weighed yesterday and I've lost another 3lbs...bringing it to 9lbs lost so far. It wasn't as much as I was hoping for but it's still good..I think

Ok..so..I have a question.

How much weight does someone have to lose to start going down in pants sizes?

I can see some difference in shirts and a very little bit in pants, but not much at all.

So what do you ladies think??

Chrystie-I think there are lot of factors that would determine how many pounds to lose before you go down a clothing size-height, bone structure, how overweight you are to begin with, etc. After losing the first 5lbs I was in a smaller pant size, but I think it will take a little more than hitting the 10lb mark to get into the next size. HTH! Keep up the good work!

Does anyone know how many points are in a pear? I was so tempted to eat something bad just now, but I opted for a pear instead. Working from home is hard on your diet!
