To getting fit and healthy

I have done a blog before and now that I stay home I thought I would start another one......

I am mom to 2 wonderful, mouthy, spunky, handsome boys, Jace (8) and James (3) and a  beautiful, easy going, laid backed, calm baby girl Joellyn (5 months).  Jace is my mouthy and full of it kid that can make me scream one minute then melt my heart the next (we are alot alike). He does wonderful in school and then comes home and we fight for book reports, spelling words and homework. He is the kind of kid that wants to please everyone and not have any enemies and I love that about him.  His feelings get hurt very easily but at least he will let you know about it.  Then I have James.  He is one of a kind and completely keeps me on my toes all day long.  He is crazy and loveable.  He is onry and all boy.  He does not like hugs or kisses from anybody and his feelings do not get hurt. We are struggling with thumb sucking at this time and trying to get him to quit...... We have tried alot of things and I am at a point I don't know what to try next. My 3rd child our baby girl was not really planned (well actually Joellyn and James were not planned)  but we couldn't have been more excited to have another baby and to top it off a girl!!! She is getting more active now during the days, does not nap as much but she sleeps all night and what mama can not like that!!!

Easter 2015

Then there is my husband of 10 years!! I don't know that I give him enough credit.....

He is a wonderful man, friend, husband and father. He is the most patience and compassionate man I know.  He might think so, but he has a great heart and I couldn't of been any luckier to get to say I do to him!

After having my 3rd baby, I have struggled with losing the weight and I actually gained more weight after having Joellyn. I have always struggled but this is the worse ever.  I nurse and I thought it would come right off again this time like the last 2 times, but nope. 

These are my before pics on 4-20-15

I weighed in at 204.8 lbs on Friday, April 10th, 2015. I thought Wow!! This is the biggest I have every been and the most wore out I ever felt.  I dread going up and down my stairs (laundry is down there).  I started my journey on Plexus and I am happy to say I feel great, more energy, back does not hurt and I am down 4.8 lbs.  Now the weight loss is different from person to person. I am at my heaviest I have ever been in my life and the unhealthiest!!! So I believe that makes a huge difference.  I watch what I eat and portion it.  I also drink between 64 to 80 ounces of water daily.  (I pee alot now)!!! If you would like to check out the products from Plexus go to my site http://www.plexusslim.com/karieholman.

The Here is to me getting fit and healthy while doing school work, cooking for growing kids and a hungry husband!!!
