Please feel free to grab this box for you blog if you think you will be participating.

I'm still looking for one or two more prizes for the month. If you would like to donate a prize, please let me know. Baby/pregnancy/trying to conceive related.

The week will be:

Monday--interview
Tuesday--a topic that everyone can blog about on their blog, where we can all visit and get to know one another
Wednesday--a topic of interest to me where we can have a good discussion
Thursday--Writer's workshop with some possible tweaking
Friday--Giveaway and contests on my blog and yours

You do not have to have a baby or currently be pregnant to participate. If you've ever had one or even want one or visit other peoples, there will be plenty of interesting conversations and giveaways.

Be thinking of something you would like to give away on your blog...new or used. If you have some baby items you don't or won't use, we'll just have a big giveaway so we can all end up with stuff we want.

Battle the Bulge


I'm joining a weight loss challenge. Here is my earlier post on the subject. Here is my before picture. I have lost almost 20 lbs so far. I'll let you know the total after I weigh today at Weight Watchers.
My goals:
  • To get down to my "normal for me" weight of 128.
  • To be able to wear the clothes in the my closet.
  • To lower my blood pressure.
  • To be healthy for my next pregnancy.
My goals this week:
  • Try to stay within my points, as much as I can, on vacation, by eating a healthy breakfast and lunch while enjoying meals at restaurants.
  • To drink water at all meals except supper out.
  • To move, by swimming and walking.
If I lose any weight I'll be seriously glad, but I'm not expecting that from vacation.
Are you where you want to be? Could you stand to walk more, eat less, be more healthy? Join us. Even if you don't have a blog you can post your goals in my comments section and we'll help each other stay accountable. Go here to join others doing the challenge.

Yay for you on your progress so far! I've done Weight Watchers before, and I had success with it - until I got pregnant with child #3. ;)

This time, I'm kind of doing it from home. No room in the budget for WW meetings. Boo.

I think my biggest need though, is EXERCISE. Yup. That's what I need.
Keep up the good work! Thanks for joining in with me. :)
