3.8 lbs
The loss seems a little high because last week when I weighed I had actually gained 4 oz. Which I think was just an odd weigh in for me. My weekly goal is 2 lbs a week and that is reasonable if I can control what I eat over the weekend.
9.4 lbs to go until pre-pregnancy weight!
23.4 lbs to go to reach my goal weight!
Last night I made baked ziti with spinach from Gina's at Skinnytaste.com. I love her website so much because all over her recipes include points counts and most of her recipes are really easy.

As far as exercise goes. I need to exercise. Right now it is just so hard because I am trying so hard to get Elle on a schedule and still not getting to much sleep at night. So once things kind of get settle routine wise I want to use my Couch to 5k app on my phone and at least start to do a little running. I know I will be more toned and the weight will come off easier also.
