Well, here it is Wednesday again. Time for EMME! If you'd like to join go visit Amber to learn all about it!
I actually didn't blow it too bad on Easter. I've never cared a lot for chocolate, until I was prego with baby number 1. Then I totally craved it! After he was born, I still found there are times I really crave it. But other times I can do just fine without it. Easter was one of my non-chocolate craving days! Lucky for me! I did love the delicious glazed ham though, so I probably had a little more of that than I should have! I also indulged in 2 cans of caffeine free Dr. Pepper.
Besides that, I actually have been a lot better with my diet this week. I'm down a couple of pounds since last Wednesday, but was hoping to be down more (since I had gone up 4 with the previous 2 weeks slacking!)
I know exercise would have made the difference. I just haven't been able to get motivated! I don't know what my problem is. Before I was pregnant with my youngest, I was up to jogging 5 miles 6x a week! Now I can't even seem to get my butt on the treadmill for a measley 3 miles of walking!
I did see some really FAT pictures of myself at last year's family reunion, and thought GAG! I know I have lost weight since then, but still would like to lose a significant amount more before the reunion this year in August!
So to get back on track: This week I WILL: Walk on the treadmill every day for 1 hour (Sunday off), Continue drinking lots of water, and make a determined effort not to "graze" from the food I make for my kids, and strictly stick to my own food!
Wish me luck!

5 miles a day? 30 miles a week? Maniac! You absolutely can do what you laid out to get "back on track."
Most important: When are you going to tell us the year of your prom picture? :)
Keep up the great work!!
Much love from NJ,
