little family photographed. Some turned out cute. But what it revealed to us is that we are
fat(er than we'd like to be, at least).
Daniel went jogging tonight. We are
now on a mission to change our diet and become more active. So hear are some of the pictures.
Here's one of the better ones.
Whenlooking at this picture, all of the sudden I don't feel skinny anymore. I realize the 25 lbs
I've gained since meetings Daniel should all go away again.
Thisone's the worst. This pose really only works with a wedding dress on.
Does
anyone have ways to motivate that have worked for them? We may try to cut out sugar
completely. Who knows. Now I'm just rambling.
Well, I certainly don't think you look fat! It's kind of crazy how weight
ReplyDeletegain goes hand in hand with marriage, huh? I've gained the same amount since getting married,
and it's super frustrating! It seems like nothing I do does any good...
I don't think you look bad at all, but I didn't know you before either. All
ReplyDeleteI can say is that being married will do that to you, and kids make it even worse. Good Luck.
Ashley! It was great to hear from you on our blog! How are
ReplyDeleteyou?
Well, I certainly don't think you look fat by any
means, but if you are looking to lose weight and/or just feel a ton better, my advice is lots
of whole foods (i.e fruits, veggies, whole wheat and other grains, beans, etc) in their least
processed form available. Also, there is a fitness book entitled "5 factor fitness" that was
easy to stick to and really helped me lose a ton of weight after my second baby. Matt did it
with me too and lost a lot more than I did. The book has a fitness plan in it, as well as a
diet plan. I loved the excercise part and followed it completely, but I modified the diet plan
a little to suit my own needs. It's a pretty healthy eating plan, but I just incorporated more
whole foods and more plant protein than animal protein. Anyway, I lost about 25-30 lbs. And
the best part about it is that I feel healthy too. Anyway, that was really long! Sorry! It
really worked for me though. Hopefully it helps
:)
Nevertheless, it was great to hear from you. How are
you?
Ashley you are and always have been little. You have nothing to worry
ReplyDeleteabout. It seems like everyone I talk to lately is in a weight rut, including me. I swear the
more you worry about it the harder it is to eat healthy, so don't worry about it, you look
GREAT!
