Sunday Sunday Sunday - If you're here that means you're not watching the Falcons play.
Just waiting for the Weird Weightloss Tip of the Day!
The Toothpaste DietYou don’t have to suck down tubes of toothpaste, but that minty fresh taste can help you stick to your diet.
If portion control is your dieting downfall and you can’t resist your favorite goodies, brush your teeth with mint-flavored toothpaste.
It’ll tell your brain the meal’s over. If you’re tempted to take another bite, you’ll quickly find out that most food doesn't taste good with a mouth full of cool mint flavor.
Plus, the slick feeling of clean teeth is enough to keep most people from wanting to chow down more.
Your dentist will thank you, too, because brushing your teeth after meals is good hygine!
If you don't have a toothbrush and toothpaste on hand every time you eat, or if you feel a snack attack coming on, chew sugarless mint gum instead.

In the Jeans Man
I'm a reverse anorexic.
I look at myself and think meh, not so bad, I'm a pretty little thing! When in actuality the numbers show I'm obese. I am 5 foot 2 and should weigh anywhere from 110 to 120 pounds. I weigh 47 pounds more than that. But mentally I just don't feel it.
It takes my clothes to really show me the problem areas. Just like all of us I've gone up and down in sizes and explain away dryer shrinkage and sizing discrepancies. But deep down I know my jeans are my true measure.
So, here is a picture of two pairs of jeans. The dark pair I just got and are a little snug around the top muffin area. The light pair I've had for about 6 years and they are my favorites. I wore them AFTER I had my son so I know it's possible.
Side by side I don't see a difference at all and I think - cool! just a few jogs and I'm there!
Even on top of each other where you can see the difference I just am not getting the impact of the issue here:
The light ones are a size 5 and the dark ones are a size 13. Is that really all the difference there is in the sizes?! I just can't wait to say I went down 8 sizes.
Ok but first step is to get these 13s to fit with room to breathe!

Wednesday Weigh In
DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS?!?!
It's Wednesday Weigh-In Time!
I'm truly hopeful that future Wednesday posts will be more motivating and less embarassing. But as this is the first one, it's my rock bottom. It's where I am at the start. THE START!
You know, gosh guys, when I was getting these pics ready to upload I actually was still trying to figure out which ones made me look the best. A sad sad mindset. Well, here they are.
Weigh in #1 : 5foot2 and 167 pounds. The last time I weighed this I was 9 months pregnant with my first kiddo.
