How come you moved to Florida (pardon me if I'm being too nosy!) When I was in college, I gained a ton of weight, I drank like I thought I was a rock star and packed on the pounds. I had never been a runner in my life, but I started to run after I realized what a beast I was turning into. I lost weight really fast...went from around 170 pounds to 106 pounds quickly (of course I stopped drinking alcohol as well). I was also in my 20's then and now after having 2 kids, my body and lifestyle is different again. It feels good to start running again. I'm not very fast and probably don't look very graceful, but I enjoy it. Since your new neighborhood is shady I would highly recommend Beach Body Power 90 workout videos if you ever find the time to squeeze something in. I promise you, you will see results :) <br />So good to be chatting with you!Jenny Bardsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05517591649546482138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1599499850071206406.post-54968551179397884512012-06-13T07:34:47.608-07:002012-06-13T07:34:47.608-07:00My little man is 16 months old now, and I am still...My little man is 16 months old now, and I am still 20 lbs heavier than my pre-pregnancy weight. And 40 lbs heavier than my lowest weight! I am a full time stay at home mom, so you'd think I'd have no excuse to get out and about in the evenings or whatnot, but there's always something getting in the way. Plus, we've just moved from England to Florida (a rather big change!!) and are in a holiday home in a dodgy area, and I'm terrified to even leave the house! I am really looking forward to finding a house in a safe area and being able to get out and about. I have never run in my life, but I have been wanting to try it for so long. I have a feeling I'll be reading your blog a lot! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14702316791431507337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1599499850071206406.post-15475811318249429362012-06-11T22:15:22.561-07:002012-06-11T22:15:22.561-07:00I totally know how you feel!

I'm only 5 ft 1 so I know what you mean by it making a difference! Getting motivated seems to be the hardest :) way to go! Now I need to do the same...looking forward to reading more from your blog :)<br /><br />Whitney<br />www.oandcmylittleloves.blogspot.comWhitney @ The Sweetest Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07733643321126272859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1599499850071206406.post-39252827773770185182012-06-09T19:47:48.526-07:002012-06-09T19:47:48.526-07:00Thanks!

I refuse to buy bigger clothes when my closet is filled with perfectly fine ones...they are just a little snug..so for now I run and leave my clothes to dry on the rack instead of going in the dryer...haha.Jenny Bardsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05517591649546482138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1599499850071206406.post-42848366416747838862012-06-09T06:02:00.044-07:002012-06-09T06:02:00.044-07:00Congrats to you on getting motivated.

That's totally me....I always accuse the washer/dryer of shrinking my clothes, even when it's totally my fat that shrank them. Even, when I lost weight, I somehow didn't believe it and was convinced that my clothes stretched.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028448670091141945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1599499850071206406.post-3198722447374649942012-06-02T18:54:44.157-07:002012-06-02T18:54:44.157-07:00Exhaustion is a word I 100% understand!

I'm sick of having a closet full of clothes that just are a little too tight and am sick of fearing that my husband will put an article of clothing in the dryer and I will have to do the squat and bend to re-stretch my all ready too tight clothes! I hope my motivation sticks...we shall see and I will keep you posted :) Fat & Slightly Uncomfortable signing out :)Jenny Bardsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05517591649546482138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1599499850071206406.post-13030473171182860792012-06-02T17:08:37.567-07:002012-06-02T17:08:37.567-07:00The last baby I gave birth to is almost 10 and I&#...The last baby I gave birth to is almost 10 and I've still got baby fat... Having 2 bios of my own, one out of the next a 9, almost 10 year old and 5 year old foster child.. the will to exercise and be fit does not overcome the exhaustion I have of being a working mommy and dealing with my house and the kids...
