Ok, so obviously it's been a while since I've posted anything here. But, things have changed a little bit in my life. In my last post I talked about getting layed off and going on Vacation. Well, first of all we had a blast that week. Went to the lake for the weekend. Then drove to Chicago and did tons of walking, sight seeing and just really enjoyed being there. I started this blog because I was on a journey to lose weight. Of course, I still want to lose weight but like I said things have changed, at least for the time being. A week and a half after we got back from vacation - I found out that I'm pregnant! Let me tell you it was quite a shock. We definately had not been planning it but really weren't trying to prevent it either. But, neither of us really had any plan to have kids. We decided if it happened for us then it happened. Well, it happened and we are totally Excited about it! Along with our families because this will be a first grandchild for my parents and his.
Anways, I think I've had a fairly easy pregnancy though. I haven't had morning sickness but have had lower back pain and some hip/pelvic soreness. I am at 25 weeks (due March 21st) now so I'm almost in my third trimester already. I haven't done very well about excersing or eating well since we got back from vacation. First, because I was completely exhausted all the time the first several months and although I didn't get sick I would have stomach aches after eating. I actually kept losing weight at first - losing up to 38 lbs total since I started my weight loss! But, that's all turned around now. I have gained that weight back but I feel I've done very well and not gained too much yet. I have however wanted to eat nothing but junk food!! ahh! I had been doing so well too and barely had any before and now I can't stop eating it! ha I have been taking pics of myself still but only to see how much my belly changes! And it's definately popping out more these days! I will hopefully get some up soon.
I have also recently signed up with Avon and am now a new Avon Representative. I decided that I really wanted to do work from home or start my own business. I had been hearing about Avon for a while so I thought I would try it out. So far, I've spent more at Avon than I've made! hehe Only my family has placed orders so far but I'm working on getting my name out there. I have a website, www.youravon.com/sgroom where anyone can place an order for direct delivery (for FREE right now) to their own house or for Rep delivery for me to deliver it to them. All new customers will receive 10% off their first order on my website! I have started using several of their makeup and skincare products and I really do love them. I use the Solutions Total Radiance face wash and day/night creams. And have been using the Line Softening Mouse Foundation, True Color Eyeshadow Quad and Intense Supershock Mascara and they are all amazing! I've also found my new favorite fragarance - In Bloom by Reese Witherspoon!
Anyways, I guess my blog will be about a few different things for the next few months. But, once I have this new baby I really want to get back to working out and eating right again so I can lose this fat! Hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday Season!
