Bits-N-Pieces

My latest and greatest accomplishment has been losing a total of 16 pounds and dropping two sizes in the process, YAY! I've been steadily working on getting back to my pre-pregnancy weight and although I recognize that I'll never be a size 5 again, I'll happily settle for something in between then and now. I've also adopted a fitness schedule that my family and I can live with which has proven to be very effective. One thing is for sure, you'll never find me on a diet. My experiences in this department have proven that I can simply work out furiously and still enjoy the pleasure of eating a little sinfully now and then.

In the mean time, I hope to lose another 20-30 pounds which should put me at a good weight for my height and hopefully allow me to don... *gulp*... a swimsuit for the first time since giving birth to Michael over 7 years ago. This will all be a pipe dream of course, if it turns out that I'm pregnant *bites finger nails nervously*. I missed my last period and that hasn't happened since, well, since my last pregnancy. And yes, I am taking a pill although I just switched to a "mini pill" which means that it's a very low dosage. I haven't had time to get to a pharmacy or make an appointment to see my doc. yet. If it were the case, it wouldn't be the end of the world as Mauricio and I have always dreamed about having a little girl... although *really bites fingernails* we'd probably end up having another boy *faints*.

gratz on the weight loss! That's totally awesome. Does secretly hoping you are pregnant with a girl make me a bad friend? ;)

Thanks, it's been a long road!!! You can't unless I can secretly hope that you are too and not be a bad friend. :P I'd commit myself if we had another boy though.
