Gain? 2lbs+

Ok. I have been drinking lots of water, working out hard at least three times a week, not eating as many desserts, basically I have started making small changes. So what is with the weight gain? I am starting to wonder if it has to do with my birth control? I got an IUD about a month ago and I was told it is a very low dose of hormones. Maybe that is making it so hard for me to lose? Or, I have read a few places maybe it is related my gall bladder out. It's all hear say, but I am looking for any answers right now. I have had my thyroid checked recently, and my meds were adjusted to a LOWER dose. So I am getting enough. I am nursing- that should be helping. I can't see how I am eating to much, because I am always hungry! It's not that I am thirsty, because I am drinking lots and lots of water..
So- i guess today I am going to try writing down everything I eat.

Vacation, all I ever wanted!

We have money saved away for a vacation, but we are having a hard time picking when and where. Here is one of our choices- I will add more later.

Disney
End of August, we would drive down.
Plus-
Kameron would still be 2, no ticket for him
My sister can get the rest of us in free, we might have to by one ticket for Nate.
Super cheap for a Disney vacations because of awesome deal from my sister.
Getting to see my sister!
Minus-
Driving there.
Even though we are getting a good deal, still a little more than we had planned for a vacation this year.

No change

So I went to the gym 4 times last week and Yesterday. 7 days a weeks is just to hard with three young kids. We went yesterday too, and today I mall walked. The eating right is the hardest part. I need to menu plan. No weight change so far though...

3 days straight

We have been to the gym 3 days in a row! I have been drinking a ton more water and going to bed early. No weight change yet, but it will come. Baby steps, right? I have a wedding to go to on the 29th and I want to lose around 10lbs before then. Jim and I are trying to go to the gym every day for 2 weeks. then we will probably cut back to every other day.

I have read things that say it's hard to lose weight after you have your gall bladder out, but it was all hearsay from people and nothing scientific. I hope it's not true!!

I will weigh myself again on Friday and hope for a weight change.

Weight loss time.

After I had my second son, I was scared into getting healthy because of a health issue he had. I lost over 60lbs. I was eating right and exercising all of the time. I loved being healthy and loved the way I looked. Then in January 2009, I had my gall bladder out. I was in so much pain that I couldn't exercise for a few weeks. Then in February, I got preggo with #3. I was so tired and hungry all of the time, I gained 40lbs back will I was pregnant. The baby is 6 months old and I haven't lost any of that weight. In fact- I may have gained a few lbs. I am sick of it. TIME TO GET MY LIFE BACK. I have a wedding to go to in 3 weeks. goal #1- lose 12lbs by the wedding. We are going to the gym every day this week. I am limiting my Dr. Pepper to one a day and I'm going to drink water like crazy. I am going to snack on carrots and bananas. *Fingers crossed* I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. here goes nothing.....
