Sigh

How was everyone's weekend??  Ours was great my baby turned 1!!! We had a fun party for him with all of our family which has grown a lot in the past few months with two new babies :)  I made his cute cake as well.  Let me tell you it tested me tremendously... Here it is:
 Here is my cute Birthday boy too. He loved his balloons that I got him
 His Grams got him this cute toy, obviously he is not supposed to sit in it. He is a silly friend.

Ok onto my update :) This past weekend I went to the NPC show that at first I was planning on doing.  It was so fun to see all the amazing ladies up on stage, it also is great to see the difference between girls that have been coached and ones that have not.  I am really excited and am looking forward to September!!

Like I had said in previous posts these past few weeks have been super hard on me mentally, and physically.  I had my weigh in and measurements.  Not as bad as I thought it would be, however it was not as great as I wanted it too either.  Over all I lost 2 lbs and 2% body fat in 3 weeks.  Am I upset?? Of course, however I did not do the work of eating right and getting enough water most days.  We have decided to focus on this week, day by day.  I am shooting to loose 1-2 lbs this week, I am hoping for 2-3 lbs.  I know I can do this, I keep changing that voice in my head to "YES you can" instead of "NO you can't".  Very powerful to me.  I ask God for his help everyday, and have found verses to help me get through the day if it is a rough one.  

So last week I said I would post photos.  Here are the 3 front and back since I started in April.  I am a bit hesitant to post these, but the transformation is quite amazing.  I still have a ways to go, but I will get there, I am enjoying this journey.  The ups and downs as well.

I am looking forward to the next week, and getting down a bit more in weight.  I am taking it one day at a time.  That seems to be the best thing for me right now.  Hope everyone has a great healthy day!!

  1. Go Jess Go! You are looking awesome! I love that you posted all the pics to compare and really see the transformation taking place. Zac has that toy Linc got and I've found him sitting in it too. That made me laugh. Happy Birthday Linc! I'm pretty sure Zac wants you to make his birthday cake! haha That is so cute!

  2. Oh my gosh, Jess! You are so brave and so amazing. I could never in a billion years post a picture of myself in a bathing suit of any kind. You rock! I am rooting for you all the way. I know you can do this!
