Baby weight, I hate you. Closet full of beautiful clothes, I miss you.

Why am I in such a post- baby weight loss rut?! I'll give you a few reasons why...

#1- South Dakota is in the arctic tundra stage of the year which means no outdoors exercise. Blah.
#2- Indoor "Sweating to the Oldies" DVD's aren't cutting it. They just aren't fun no matter how happy your host is. (Although the few that I have done seem quite entertaining to Alex and sister Ally)
#3- I got into the horrible habit when I carried little mister of ending most dinners with some sort of sweet treat. I still want sweet treats.
#4- There is literally one gym here and they were excited to tell me that I could join for the low, student discount rate of $40 a month. I never thought Gold's Gym would seem so appealing.

The first two weeks after Alex was born, I dropped 30 pounds by doing nothing. Motivation, I better find you soon.

That is the story of my LIFE right now! I dropped 20 at about three weeks, and that is where I still sit. :-( At least I've "worked out" shoveling snow a few times this past week? Totally counts. Let me know if you find a trick for that motivation!
