WOnderful! Isn't it great when you realize you LIKE working out?

Thats so awesome! I am so happy for you! I think fitting into the next size of jeans is so incredibly exciting. I am sure you will be able to make it to an 8!

Good luck! I hope it goes well!

Oh my gosh that test was hard lol but I actually really scored well surprisingly haha. She said it was among the top 10% of scores that they get. I thought in my head some of those math guesses must've paid off  

Now it's a waiting game...

That's awesome you did so well on it! Crossing my fingers for you!!

166.4! Down 1.6lb this week. Which I'm not going to lie, has not been the best week for eating for me.   We had pizza from my in law's restaurant on the Super Bowl, I ate out Monday night and last night.

I won't be making my goal before Seth gets home, but to be only 2lb from it is amazing!

Our drive to Kansas starts tomorrow morning (EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!) and I'm really hoping I can somehow manage not to gain this week and I will trying my best to make the healthiest eating choices I can, since we'll be eating out a lot.

Wow you're so close!! That is awesome   Omg I bet you're so excited to see your husband soon!!

So happy to say that I got accepted into the Nursing program. First year is PN program and then I either bridge to ADN for an additional year or go for a BSN program elsewhere. Now it's just left up to financial aid, finances, and childcare. Hopefully everything falls into place and I can accept my position.

Oh and I'm still 173 :/

I weighed in today at 247! I have been exercising a little more and feel pretty great about that. My eating I think has been a lot better too, I am ready to go shopping for some veggies!
