Our little cowboy has finally made it back to his real home after spending time with his Nonna & Papa. I told my parents that their home has now been upgraded from a hotel (we joke and call it a hotel because mom puts a piece of Dove Dark Chocolate on your pillow each night) to a full fledged resort!!!
Once I had the car unloaded from all of the "goods" collected at Nonna's I settled into our normal routine of deciding what my little guy and I would do for exercise. His decision was to stay inside and workout with the Wii. He loves, "Just Dance 2" and if you haven't tried it believe me you will LOVE it!! We laughed and danced for over an hour last night and it didn't even feel like exercise but it was. I worked up a sweat and spent quality time with my family ~ nothing better!
After Che-laxing (that's chilling & relaxing as our little cowboy calls it) on the couch together post exercise, our little cowboy proceeds to tell me how much he really missed me while he was gone.
Two things spoken from those angelic lips really brought a tear to my eye.
First, he told me that even though Nonna snuggled with him it just wasn't the same as snuggling with me and second, he said to me, "Mom, you can really tell you've been working hard because you're alot smaller than when I was here last week".
I think when you see someone every day of the week you don't notice that they have lost weight or inches but if you haven't seen them for a few days it's like WOW!!
You may not see the difference in the mirror but those around you are noticing how great you look! On average it takes 6 weeks of exercise and healthier eating to see changes appear ~ your Meltdown journey is going to bring so many more changes in the next few weeks and I look forward to cheering you on every step of the way! I feel like this week may be another record breaker for all of us! I haven't weighed yet but I will tomorrow morning and I am anticipating a big loss because I feel it in my clothes and in my energy level. Make sure to email your results to me by Friday 9 p.m.
With love & appreciation ~ Stephanie
