Well it’s not much, but I do believe it means I’m staying on track. I’d also like to think that some of the fat may be starting to change to muscle. It’s hard to see the scale not move because of that, but I am going to stick with it.

190. I know I was shocked too. Well, you’ve seen it with your own eyes, maybe you’re not shocked, but I was. It’s amazing how easy pounds will go on, but DAMN. That number might very well put me in the morbidly obese category. I mean I think I weighed that when I was pregnant [...]
