Welcome

Welcome to my pound pinching blog!
I'm Teri, a 24 year old. I stay at home with my two kids, Grace is 27 months, and Gray is 2.5 months. I am trying to recover from having Gray. I have quite a bit of weight to lose in order to be healthy, feel confident, feel strong, and to be a good role model for my kids.

I like to work out, I have a hard time fitting it all in right now. I am still trying to figure out our routine with two kids. My husband is an inspiration to me. He used to be heavy, but one day decided to get DEAD sexy and get in shape.That was like 10 years ago. He works out like a horse, and he eats to strengthen his body. He has more self control in his pinky than I do in my whole body! I eat to satisfy my mind, mostly. I love food. I enjoy it. I have to learn to control the urge to eat something unhealthy all the time. I have to remember that if I get stressed, it isn't healthy to turn to a cookie, or three tacos from taco bell, or a soda.

I have to remember not to obsess about my weight and my image all the time. I have a daughter to raise and I DO NOT want her to lack in self confidence in her body the way her mamma does. I have to remember to talk nicely to myself and thank the Lord for the body he gave me. I have to take care of it though, after all it is the only one He's ever going to give me.
Let's get a BIG pot together to win some money for our hard work of losing weight! There are five total entrys so far.
