Sleveless Shirts are my Nemesis

So, I lost 8 lbs.

And then I just stopped. 

What is it about cold weather that makes you detest salads and want warm, hot, carby foods? Or maybe I'm like that year round?

Who am I kidding? I KNOW I'm like that year round.

I've got a few more pounds to go before I get back to my pre-pregnancy weight... and then about 5 more after that to get to where I want to be. However, all this winter weather and big comfy sweaters and pants isn't really giving me a sense of urgency. However, I know when summer hits and I want to swear skirts and sundresses and shirts that show my upper arms, then I will be wishing I had been a little more disciplined. I HATE showing my arms. Hate, hate, hate.

I'm actually about to go out to lunch. I looked at the menu of the restaurant we are going to and I see they have lots of yummy salads to choose from. I also saw that there is chicken fried steak there and it's going to be very difficult to pass on that. MASHED POTATOES, Y'ALL. 

Meanwhile, Ellie is still napping and we are supposed to leave very soon for lunch. I still need to feed her and get her dressed. I constantly teeter on the edge of being late or being on time with a cranky child who woke up too soon from her nap. Ugh. She is OUT like a light so I hate to wake her but I've already pushed the time once and hate to ask again. 

In other news, I've discovered some wrinkles around my eyes and I just don't know if I'm ready for all that. Any eye creams you would recommend?
