My theory is that we didn't put it on overnight so it's perfectly ok if it doesn't come off overnight as well!. Plus slow and steady is much better anyway.

Not a huge difference, but I've lost about 8 lbs. (I could probably stand to lose at least another 30...) and my gut doesn't look quite so prominent. Baby steps...! loribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272814565916935113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102758362320348657.post-87739965302279578102014-10-18T10:38:17.763-04:002014-10-18T10:38:17.763-04:00The FitBit is a fun toy.

If you have a smart phone you can automatically sync it to your phone so you don't even have to make the effort to log on to the website. Mainly what I like is that it keeps me cognizant of how much I'm moving (or not moving). I also like the sleep tracking function, though it tells me what I already knew, which is to say I sleep like crap.<br /><br />Glad you like the new layout! I thought the old layout was too busy, I was bored with it, and I like the simplicity of the layout of some other blogs. I wasn't sure what to write in the intro because it's hard to introduce yourself in 1200 characters or less so hopefully it accurately portrays who I am. :)BentNotBrokenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10151724076659555122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102758362320348657.post-30264419009048106942014-10-17T22:34:06.626-04:002014-10-17T22:34:06.626-04:00That is so true about feeling the need to take car...That is so true about feeling the need to take care of ourselves! Somehow health and looks seemed so insignificant in the light of pursuing that miracle baby, and now the priorities are definitely changing :) <br />I looked into FitBit but I don't have the patience to record everything and not sure about the gadgets. Maybe, I should look at it one more time since I would use all motivation I can get :) Does it help you?<br /><br />Love the new blog layout and your Intro about yourself!PerAsperahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18384612134241953499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102758362320348657.post-42827484626632494292014-10-16T19:23:49.973-04:002014-10-16T19:23:49.973-04:00LOL!

Really. So few people actually understand the inevitable ups and downs and I know that you do and that you're right there going through it with me.<br /><br />It's sort of funny how once we change our life goals we start to take care of ourselves again. I'm glad you're back in the gym too! I can't wait to see your 'control' jeans picture! If you have a FitBit and want to "compete", shoot me an email.<br /><br />BentNotBrokenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10151724076659555122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102758362320348657.post-12883781525460369472014-10-16T16:23:10.810-04:002014-10-16T16:23:10.810-04:00Love the short pants!

You look wonderful, and yes I can tell right away you've been working out. It is such a good feeling to actually be able to look at your reflection and say 'I look great!". I am still avoiding mirrors but I've started working out again and I love the few extra endorphins I'm getting every day because of that :) Hopefully one day I can fit again into my 'control' pair of jeans and then I promise to take a picture of myself as well :)<br /><br />PerAsperahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18384612134241953499noreply@blogger.com
