We are in the same boat as far as our weight goes... I gained 24 lbs with Remi at only 24 weeks. Freakin pre e! Then I put on about 15 more with all the emotional eating from depression after. I lost my job from missing so much work and ended up sitting home a lot, and I also dont think the anti depressants helped either. Needless to say I ended up at 194 lbs. It was soooooo hard to see the scale so close to 200! My goal weight is 155 that is a really good weight for me, I am 5'8" so that is thin for me. I am down to 185 which is not close by any means,but I have come to terms with the fact that I probably wont get to my goal weight before I get pregnant again, so my goal weight for now is between 165-170. But I too have quite a bit of weight to lose. If you ever want to vent feel free to get in touch with me. :) Hope Nutrisystem works well for you, I am doing Weight Watchers... Its nice to know there is someone else doin this too. Keep us posted. :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14558387599122910313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768939451002135910.post-39045283576498368942011-05-20T09:04:47.791-07:002011-05-20T09:04:47.791-07:00Very motivating Ashley!

It wasn't easy and temptations are always within an arms reach but be disciplined. I'm cheering for you. By the way I think your kick ass dress is cute. I hope you saved it so you can rock it again.

We as women are so hard on ourselves and we never give ourselves enough credit, or other women the uplifting that is sometimes needed. I know how difficult it is to share weight or size so I commend you on that!!! You are an amazing person (from what I have read on your blog) and I know from what I have read that you are one very determined individual. Once you set your mind to something you achieve it. I know this new healthy lifestyle you are trying to implement into your everyday is no different. Good luck to you and your Hubby. You are an inspiration to me to keep doing what I have been doing to stay fit & healthy. It is not easy with your schedule but it can be done when you put yourself first!!!! I know that for me once I was able to make the changes I wanted in my life to get back to a good and healthy weight everything changed and I have become an even happier more upbeat individual. I hope and pray for the same for you!!! We all want to see the sparkle back in your eyes!!! We will be here cheering you on!! I loved all the pics you posted in this post.

Where I was on top of the world, before 2009 happened. <br /><br />I think that its great that you can reflect back on your "happy" pictures and feel inspired. Also, props to you for posting your weight. It does make you accountable and I know you can get back to where you want to be. You are such a strong person and I have no doubt that you will overcome these tough years and will be so much stronger for it.<br /><br />Love & Hugs!<br />LaurenLaurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418218196789192954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768939451002135910.post-59707784256140763642011-05-18T12:28:19.204-07:002011-05-18T12:28:19.204-07:00I have followed your blog since you lost Nolan and...I have followed your blog since you lost Nolan and my heart goes out to you. I am so glad you have that beautiful rainbow baby to hold and kiss now. I have to say that I relate to your desire to get your weight and health back. I had a rough pregnancy with my twins, almost losing them at 18 weeks and spending 15 weeks on bed rest before delivering them 8 weeks early. I look back to pictures of my pre-pregnancy days and they are hard to look at compared to how I look now. <br /><br />I like your positivity and determination to make changes. I wish you luck and I hope to follow in your foot steps. Please post about how things go so we can share in your "good loss" this time. <br /><br />Amy http://www.jessenamy2006.blogspot.comRaising Twin Girls https://www.blogger.com/profile/10156623017395670196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768939451002135910.post-21897318516531441582011-05-18T11:13:45.195-07:002011-05-18T11:13:45.195-07:00You go girl- I commence you for being brave and ho...You go girl- I commence you for being brave and honest and facing the facts and the beginning.
