Miss Amber has a fantastic blog and she has started the Extreme Makeover: Me Edition! As mothers we are always taking care of everyone, but we neglect ourselves! There just isn't enough time for it all. BUT we need to make that time because it helps us to be the best we can be! Amber firmly believes that we all need to take care of ourselves, because we are worth it too! Check out her blog, you won't be disappointed!
This weeks question: How are you keeping track of your achievements. How do you reward yourself when you achieve a goal?
I have a calendar where I write the days I worked out, what my work out consisted of, and it has my daily weight. It's kind of obsessive, but seeing it all written down motivates me. I do not like to see too many blank exercise days in a row.... I really have not rewarded myself with anything yet!
With all that being said, this week has been a bust (well, really two weeks!) I have been sick, I went out of town, and I have been all around unmotivated... I am planning on getting back on track tomorrow! (Today has been too darn busy!) I have lost a pound and a half though!

Well, a pound and a half doesn't sound like a bust to me, YAY for you!!! I say every ounce counts ;)
Have a great week!
1 1/2 lbs. is awesome Staci! Amber is great, isn't she? So happy she started this makeover.
Much love from NJ,

You have been a very busy girl! Definitely not a bust if you still managed to lose and not gain! Way to go girl.
You are doing great! Life gets so hectic, but you are still down, that's awesome!
You have a beautiful family! Have a great afternoon!

Keep it giong girl. 1 1/2 is wonderful. If I don't get preggo soon I will have to jump back on the bandwagon. :)
Great job! I'm trying to take better care of myself, but it's just so hard to make the time.
a pound and a half is excellent!
Have a great week!
Your kids are adorable!!
What a great idea for us moms!
Congrats on any weight lost girl!
1.5 is awesome! Especially for someone so unmotivated! :) I was pretty unmotivated this past week and gained a little.
But not today! I'm so motivated after today. I love it!
I'm so glad you're joining in!
Also, I'm going to have to do that calendar thing. I'm a list maker. I am very visual, so I think that seeing too many days not crossed out with exercise would motivate me as well.
What a great idea! I make a to do list with cleaning because I get sad when I don't cross things off so this would work perfectly for me!
