So my scale is an evil liar and I don't trust it. One day it will say one thing and the next it will be 10-15 lbs different, and I know I don't fluctuate that much. So, I have decided to weigh myself every time I am at the clinic at my husband's school. Well, that scale is now officially even more evil than mine at home. No, it doesn't fluctuate really, but it says I weigh about 10 lbs more than I thought, but at least I have an official starting point and a reliable way to measure my progress (or lack thereof, as the case may be).
Drumroll, please ... 210 lbs.
I have decided to start running - something I've never really enjoyed, but since my husband isn't home at any consistent time every day, I need to be able to work out with my kids. I can't afford to join a gym (we live on student loans, so it's kind of tight) and I already have a decent jogging stroller, so that's where I am starting. Wish me luck, and as few blisters as possible, considering I NEVER wear shoes.

Good for you for posting a number. I know it's hard, but then it makes it all the more impressive to see it go down.
We too live on student loans, and because we are so poor qualified for a 1/2 off membership at the YMCA, which still makes it like $22 a month, but for me, I've tried the home route and I'm just not consistent, which is why I'm willing to pay it.
Way to start!
Way to go.
Again, we live off of student loans.....but a membership to a gym, it's non-negotiable for me. But, you've gotta do what's best for you and your family.
Running is fun. Go for it. Hint, put bandaids on your heels BEFORE you get blisters. It will help keep the blisterage down.
Good Luck!
