Weighing in

Ok. Reed (my son) will be 17 months old next week, my pants are tight, I'm self conscious to shirts on that cling to my belly, and I hate the way my body looks. In high school I was always tiny, even when I got married my wedding gown was a size 4. I got pregnant soon after getting married my sophomore year in college and gained around 30 lbs during the pregnancy. I remember going to the doctor for the first time when I was 16 weeks pregnant and I weighed 124 lbs... and now I weigh 140!?
I am ashamed that I have let myself go. My excuse over the past year and a half has been that I had a baby, was going to school full time and had a part-time job. I was always too exhausted to exercise or eat healthy. Now that I have graduated (yay!) and my son is almost a year and a half, I can't use those excuses.
I've wanted to lose weight badly for at least 3 months now. I have started Shaun T's Insanity workouts two or three times now and never made it past the first week. This time it has to change. I want my husband to think I'm as beautiful as the day he married me, I want to be active with my son, but most importantly I want this to get my self-confidence back.
I have to kick the sweets and make healthier decisions... so here goes nothing.
