Pigs can really fly! But my son just can't picture it!

Not that I became the perfect mother, but after being mortified at pushing maximum capicity weight wise and attending my 30 year high school reunion, AND seeing nearly everyone else looking great, AND not having lost the 40 or so pounds I needed to loose, I finally did it!!! Well at least half-way!

YES!!! I actually have managed to loose about 22 pounds since my reunion in September & keep on counting. Okay, how did I do it? The way Valerie Bertanalli did, I realized I just plain & simple needed to cut back, so I enlisted the help of "Jennifer Craig" as a co-worker calls her (not from this country), I just could not figure out who's number she was asking for when another co-worker says, "I think she means Jenny Craig". It's amazing the weight you can loose consuming a mere 1200 calories a day.

And yes, I hit the gym, not really big time, but a couple of times a week. I just love,love, love the dance classes. It just grosses one of my sons out though. He says covering his eyes "Mom I just can't get the picture of it in my head." It's just too weird for him to imagine his mother dancing around.
But he better get used to it! Let me tell you though, some of those women can move! So I'm jamming, salsa-ing, rumba-ing, mambo, mamba, whatever- you- call- it- ing, my excess away after giving birth 5 times & loving every minute of it.
