Mission: No More Living Lardy
Main objective the next few month is to live healthier. I plan to work on portion control. I went a little crazy the last two months with the goodies and I'm up several pounds from November (was 138lbs.) Looking forward to losing those extra pounds and then some. Along with portion control, I plan to continue taking ballet class 3 times a week for an hour and half plus working out at our local rec center two times a week. Looking forward to living healthier and feeling good.
Weight Loss Goal: Reach 130 lbs. by the end. (lose 12.9 lbs)
Good Luck Everyone!

If I were ambitious I would try to get back to my pre-babies weight but that's unrealistic. I'll stick with just trying to get rid of my muffin top for now.
Goal: Lose 10 lbs.
