College has started up again and this town has gotten crazy!!
we have been doing workouts every night 
the machines are FULL
we just go straight to the spin bikes anyways but still!! 
messing up our gym
swear, dang kiddos. don't they realize that we own this gym?
we have been going there for the past 18 weeks. some weeks more than others, but it is still ours!
ahhhh
it's okay. it's like new years to them. i'm sure it'll calm down in a few weeks. 

slow weight loss again for me
that's ok. 
it's just muscle building again. 
i'm okay with that.
i think.
yeah ok.

my pants fit again!!
I have a bit of a muffin top still--dang baby belly! 
but that's also going down!! :) sweet!
bummer: my butt is gone again :/ sucks. on leg day I make sure my weights are set high, trying to build a butt if I have to. I have skinny chicken legs. 
I wish I was pear-shaped.
i know what you will say: the grass is greener......whateves.
I'm apple shaped. top heavy. big boobs & gain weight in my belly. not cool my friend. not cool. pro: my legs look dang good. I have skinny ankles and nice calves. a small butt, but like no cellulite  {when i'm not preggo/post-partum at least}
but yeah, i've got love-handles and back fat and a baby belly--that I even had BEFORE I had any babies. weird. i know.
I just wish I had a booty. 
hips would be nice.
oh well. 
my hubby thinks i'm hot. that's all that matters.

Weigh-out....huh?

I forgot to weigh myself this am! What!??!?
Yeah, don't know how that happened. I'm usually obsessed.
I'm off to go workout. Don't have the energy, but I will anyways! And I will be in a better mood after :) don't you love how exercise can do that? Love it! I have a few addictions.... Chocolate is one, working out might be another....hmmmm.... Ok, maybe not.... I do love me some sleep too. Anyways, until tomorrow, when I'm not using the iPod to write this. Or nursing the baby.
Fingers crossed for more results!
Now....go work out!!

Week 16

It's been a while....
BUT
I've still worked out.
We went to Cali., Had some campouts, fun trips and lack of funding to buy healthier items.
yes, I kind of ate badly.
BUT still worked out.
yep! and counted calories. The MyFitnessPal app is my BFF. Besides my workout buddy.
Don't have them? You need them. Both!

SO here are the stats!

my initial weight 5/9/12: 160 lbs
goal: 125 lbs/lose 35 lbs.

weight 7/11/12:  144 lbs.
weight today 8/29/12: 137.4 lbs.
Monthy-ish loss:  6.6 lbs.
Total loss: 22.6 lbs.
left to goal:  12.4 lbs.

YEP!!
So happy to be below 140!! 
Ahhhh that's NICE!
Most of my pants button {the "bigger" ones and comfy ones} I still have a belly that I need to get rid of. {blah!! that's where most of the weight is!}
But I am getting there!
Only 7 more lbs to be pre-baby R
12.4 lbs to be at my goal
17.4 lbs more to be at about pre-baby K!
Easy-peasy!
seems like it now, right.
It just takes dedication, motivation, and an understanding hubby :)
he's awesome {even if he does sabotage my diet most of the time with is need for me to bake goodies. lol}
this week marked our going "hardcore" again
i.am.sore.
understatement!!
I LOVE it!! 
even if it is harder for me to sit on the potty now than when I was 42 weeks preggo.
yup. hurts that bad!
it's good for me! :)

Earrings



we took miss R to get her ears pierced.
on her 4 month birthday.
we were still at A&J's after coming back from California.
A was all for it. So were we, of course.
Uncle J had the job of holding her while it was done. 
Daddy didn't have the heart to do it.


notice the shirt.
one day she will know you did this to her auntie A. lol.
jk.
I did.


had no clue.



she didn't like having her head held down for the markings. 


so happy and unaware......


then the pain.
poor thing.


oh that face can break your heart.

auntie A was crying, I almost cried myself. Drew stayed away. lol.
but she looks SO cute now.
so much more girly.
people may think I'm wrong, a bad parent or like submitted her to torture.
oh well, my kid, not yours :) 

she hasn't touched them once
hasn't paid they any mind.
there was some adjustment with nursing - I don't want my arm to put pressure on them. but it's fine.
she was miss happy soon after.

InstaMonday

I've been M.I.A. I know....
SO much stuff has been going on and I'm kind of lazy. lOL. more on that later.
& the weight loss.....let's just say it was super good news, then things got busy/slow and I've slowed down. but it's all goood! :)
So here is a bit of our life in instagram pictures. You can follow me, my name is lalalawrence, i'm private so you have to request me & I have to approve. lol.
