Why Weight?

Image
By
I am sick and tired of this weight issue of mine!!! Since having Desi, I have been feeling so sick. Severe fatigue (to point I have to, literally, crawl up the stairs), dizziness, nausea, pain in my joints. So I finally went to my primary doc who, in turn, had me go to some specialists. Long story short, blood work and everything has come out fine, but the basic issue is that I am FAT! LOL! I mean that's basically what the docs were saying to me. "Yes, all looks fine. The real problem is that you're FAT!" That's all I heard at these past doc appointments.

I gained so much weight when I was preggers with Desi (like 40+ lbs). I didn't eat anything crazy. I just wanted full meals at each sitting (including snacks) and I didn't stay active. I am paying for it now. My weight is weighing me down. I MUST get these pounds off so I can start feeling better. I have to lose 50lbs! I know I can do it, it's just not going to happen overnight. I have to stay focused because by summer of 2013 I want to be 50lbs lighter. I will keep the motherhood updated on my workout regimens, food intake, etc. I am determined. Once my mind is set, I take off. Here's to being 50lbs lighter in 2013!

Night Night!

The Warmth of the Snow

By
It was a cold and snowy Thursday morning. My icy cold hands fought to get Desi buckled up in his car seat. I gave him a kiss and headed over to my driver's side. I peered across the street and spotted this man walking his dog. I thought to myself, "He's pretty sexy." This overwhelming feeling comes over me and I revert to my school girlish ways. He approaches me with the warmest smile and I soon didn't feel so cold anymore. I am taken into his masculine arms and I am given a gentle kiss. We hold each other as the snow falls all around us. We gaze into each others eyes as we dance to "Down by the Bay" (songs in kid minor). LOL!  That moment with my husband meant so much. It was a rush rush kind of morning and to just take the time to embrace each other helps you to continue to remember the love you have for the one that was there before your child. Once you have a child, life tends to revolve around that little person. However, it is so important for t...

Star Wars and a Lesson Learned

By
Thursday night my husband and I snuck out the house to catch the 11:40p showing of Star Wars! My mother stays at our house during the week to watch Omari so she was fine with staying with the kids while we ran off to be teenagers again. As soon as we put the boys to bed, we rolled out (Roll Out by Ludacris plays here). It was exciting! Sometimes things are so surreal to me that it seems like my life is a movie and I will instantly que music in my head for the relatable scene. I felt a rush come over me while we tiptoed through the house and out the door. It felt like we were being rebellious. We were rebelling against the parental norms for the night. Once we got into the car, we just smiled at each other as I silently melted. His smile is a constant reminder of one of the many reasons why he is my husband. He is so fine (I Love Your Smile by Shauniece plays here)! He said, "You ready baby?" I nodded and we headed for the theater. He thanked me for coming with him and I could...

1 Stitch 2 Stitch

By
My 1 year old got stitches on his head last night (really this morning- ER was packed). The first of many real deal boo boos. We have a drum set in our basement and one of the snare drums was on the floor. I turned my back for literally 2 seconds (to eat a freakin cookie) and heard a shriek of pain. I quickly turned around and saw Omari holding his head. I ran over to him thinking he just hit his head on the floor or wall or something but I saw blood. I looked around and saw the snare drum and put two and two together. I cleaned the wound and saw a hole in his head. It was clearly a puncture. It wouldn't stop bleeding and it looked pretty deep. My baby! I was sick to my stomach because my baby was hurt. Desi held his stomach and started pacing the floor. "Oh God!" He said. He started to cry. "I don't want my baby brother to be hurt. Is he going to be okay?" He was so worried. My husband consoled him while I tried to clean the wound. I told my husband I have ...
