Weight loss update...

Well, I haven't posted much about my weight loss struggle since the end of the last challenge.  Probably because once again, I am disappointed in myself.  It seems as if has been really hard to stay focused on not grazing now that I'm not in a challenge.  My weakness is processed carbs (crackers and chips) and M&M's (which I have never really craved before but seem to need them all the time now).  I am only down around 2 or so pounds over the past few months.  I still make such better choices then I did last year, but can't seem to get there any faster.  Luckily, my workout partner and another lady and I decided to start our own challenge.  We are doing MyFitnessPal together and do two weigh ins a week (Mondays and Fridays).  Mondays are hard since Saturday afternoons through Sundays are a struggle with eating for me.  I also had an "oh sh*t" moment this week when I realized that my sister's wedding is less then 2 months away.  This is not "oh sh*t" because of her wedding, but because after that, we are going to be trying for our other three embryos.  I literally panicked thinking about being pregnant at this weight.  I am around 15 less then I was with Brady, but I felt so unhealthy and really want to at least lose 10-20 pounds by then.  I really need to kick this in gear!! 

I have two areas that I need to focus on: not grabbing a snack in the middle of the night when I let Drake out and cooking supper.  I need to cook supper - don't know why I don't/hate it so much!!
