Mom in the shot Mar 24th {Skinny Fat, did she do it?!}


Lets mark the past 6 weeks as a MAJOR FAIL.
When I proclaimed it to the world that I was skinny fat and gave myself 6 weeks to do something about it, I did not see it ending this way.

Feb 17th Mar 24th

Feb 17th Mar 24th

I can totally throw out the fact that Girl Scout cookies fall into this 6 week period, but to blame the those innocent children would be wrong.
{DARN YOU GIRL SCOUTS AND YOUR DELECTABLE BAKED GOODIES}

I bought a DVD, new sneakers, and got my husband into it. But did I follow up, NO. Life is full of triumphs and failures. I am trying not to be hard on myself about this. And looking at the next 6 weeks as my redemption time. I can do it. I know I can.

I leave you frustrated, annoyed, and any other adjective you can think of about this.
But still hopeful.

See you back in 6 weeks.

    you might want to start that diet next week, you are attending a rodriguez family event this weekend which means much food, drink and isn't there supposed to be a "candy" table at the event as well?

    I ate my girl scout cookies in less than a week. I justified it by thinking I better hurry up and eat them so they don't linger and torment me for weeks. And I think you still look good!

    I blasted myself into a girl scout coma the day they came so they wouldn't tempt me for multiple days or weeks. I'm still holding onto my skinny fat also.. but am on day 4 of Jillian Michael's, 6 weeks to a 6 pk ab DVD workout. I'm whining the entire time, but I'm doing it. Finally. I too have had nothing by failure the past 6 weeks. How can it be 6 weeks already?? What DVD did you get? I love me some Jillian yelling at me, but one of these days, I may throw my hand weight into the tv, just sayin'!

    GO GIRL!!! We can do this! (I HAVE to as I will need to be in a swimming suit on a cruise in about 10 weeks.) We're calling it Ship Shape!

    This is exactly what I see in the mirror. I thought I could at least handle 10 minutes of abs every day. But instead, I end up with two toddlers crawling all over me. Good luck.

    I blame the girl scouts... they are one of the best marketing methods! Who can turn a sweet little girl with delicious cookies away?
    You are so inspiring to me! You are so brave to be honest with us readers! Good luck in the next six weeks! I am going to take your six week challenge and force myself to start working out again! (However... I don't think I am brave enough to put the pictures online :P)

    Awww! I'm on the same boat! I want to get back to my regular clothes again...

    Did you consider the "cookie diet"? That's what I'm on, but I don't use the cookies people say, I just eat whatever cookies I want.

    I kinda think that you look great and just so you know, Girl Scout Cookies are the devils treat (at least that's what I tell myself) =) We have a house full because my daughter just had to be Daisy this year :)

    Good Luck on your next 6 weeks!! I will be right there with you!

    yeah, you'll total do it (even though you look fab!)!!! if it makes you feel any better, i've been a work out junkie for the last two months and haven't lost a pound! i'm definitely stronger, but is that really anyone's goal when starting a workout plan? :-)

    Hey, lady, I thought not being pregnant would keep the urge down for girl scout cookies this year - I was wrong! Dang those thin mints, dang them.
