Well I officially weighed in yesterday morning and it was pretty bad ... 211.6lbs!! I almost wish I never would have got my gallbladder out cause at least with it in I was too scared to eat the fatty foods that I seem to crave now! I have a tough decision, I really want to loose weight and I know that NS helped me last time so I'm really considering going back on NS just for a few months to get me on track and give me that push I need. And I was so close to actually placing my order that I entered my VISA number and even pressed "submit" but then the website came up with an error saying that since I am Canadian I need to place my order through their Canadian site (this is new). So I clicked onto the Canadian link and filled out another order but when I went to press "submit" I noticed that there was no place for me to put my discount code and the choices I had for meals were limited!! Then today one of our new friends asked if I was interested in joining the gym with her cause she was looking for motivation and also wants to loose the baby weight (her son is 2 1/2). Lots of the Moms from my mom group joined SpaLady which I know has a pretty good deal on right now that is only $21 a month but you have to sign a contract for 3 years (I have done this before and did use my SpaLady membership and enjoyed it but I didn't use it as much as I should have and never did see results).
So I'm stuck ...do I join SpaLady or the YMCA with our "new friend" that is only $21 a month and it would get me out, she is a pretty nice lady (young but nice). Or do I sign up for NS that I know will probably work for me in less time then a gym membership but cost more over a shorter period of time and seems to have limited items on the menu!? I wouldn't mind getting to know this new friend better but I have a feeling that I won't see the results I want from a gym pass?! But I kinda already told her I was interested in loosing weight!? Do I do both? I wish I was just naturally skinny!! I sure hope that Jacob has his fathers metabolism!! Not that it matters much with guys, it's OK for them to be a little chubby!
That's about all that is new here - today is my MIL's birthday but she is sick so we cancelled the plans we had with her and will hopefully see her on the weekend?! Swimming starts in 2 weeks - I'm pretty excited, I think Jacob might actually be able to do some of the activities this time. Speaking of Jacob, he is just getting over a cold, I got him a new doctor - a pediatrician!! I'm very excited to meet the new doctor and ask a few questions I wanted second opinions on but we don't get to meet her until March (Jacob's 9 month appointment)!

I'm certainly no expert (as you know) but from any shows or articles they say you have to exercise and eat properly (don't say diet - thats a bad 4 letter word) to loose weight. So if you join the gym you still have to eat the right food groups and if you go on NS you still have to have some exercise program at home. So I guess decide if you are going to use the membership for all 3 years (thats $756) and if not then buy a exercise dvd and do it while Jacob is sleeping or playing. Thats only my opinion though.
I am defintely trying to lose weight right now too. For me, I have to lose some weight before I can get into exercising more.
