This is my journey to shed the extra pounds packed on during 3 pregnancies in 3.5years. This is my year to let the caged "Fit" mama inside of me loose finally. Follow me as I try to learn the balance between loving to cook, eat, run a few 5K's and compete in my first ever Sprint Triathlon. It's going to be an exciting year and I am ready to get Fit. Why not join me?

Saturday was the big shower day. All my preparations & cleaning all for this day. The shower went off great. And I wasn't upset with my food intake for the day. Not bad for being around so much yummy food all day & being able to control myself.

Day 15 - Biggest Loser
Today was a busy day. The girls and I went to consign some clothes & then turned right around and spent the store credit on Winter clothes for Ellia.
Then in the afternoon, wanting to kill 3 birds with one stone I took us on an adventure. The girls, Bubba and I went on a walk. And while on the walk we stopped to pick blackberries. Feeling pretty good with myself that we were exercising, Bubba was getting a walk & we were picking blackberries.
When all of a sudden a biker rides by with his dog on a leash. Are you sensing what happened? Bubba took off to chase the other dog, except he didn't get very far because his leash was around the stroller handle. He proceeded to knock over the stroller with Addie in it. She fell out & banged her forehead on the cement. I scooped her up & ran, Yes, this Mama ran home.
She is okay but it was very scary to say the least. She has a nice goose egg in the middle of her forehead & a tiny bit of red road rash.
Now for the exciting news - I was the biggest loser last night at weigh in. Down 5lbs!!! WooHoo!
