Introduction Text Hello! I am a blessed 28 year old mom, wife, and teacher. I'm just looking to get into the best shape possible for myself and my family. I have a wonderful husband and two awesome little boys under the age of 3 and a half. I was always thin before having my kids. I gained a lot of weight on my second pregnancy and lost about 40+ pounds after the initial baby weight (10 lbs) came off with a lot of hard work. I still have about 10-15 pounds to be back where I was before I had my kids-- but I'm working on it! I was a long-time Sparkpeople member who just came back. After I had lost the baby weight and 40 pounds, I still had weight to lose. I recently realized... nothing can help me more than Sparkpeople. My biggest hurdle is motivation, and Sparkpeople is extremely motivating!

1. Be healthy and fit for my family. I want to be as active and fit as possible to keep up with my two beautiful boys and my wonderful husband. 2. Show myself that I can have willpower! 3. Workout 3-4x per week and stay under my daily calorie goal. 4. Lose my weight by the time I start back teaching in the fall.

Caloric Needs – Plan Daily calorie needs: ------------------------ Sedentary: 1650 Lightly Active: 1850 Moderate: 2,000 *I am at a currently lightly active to moderately active activity level. I am counting my calories as if I am lightly active, however, I will achieve to exercise at a moderate to heavy level. ------------------------ Rounded off weight loss math: 1/per week loss with eating 1200/day. Exercise I complete will make my daily calorie deficit even larger. If I lose 1-2 pounds a week, I’ll be at my goal weight of 120 pounds in 6-12 weeks. This would mean by around … late August - the week school starts - to October. Ready… set… goal, here I come!

Add a Link 2 Timothy 1:7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline. Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
