Cheerio! I am along for the journey with you all. I have not been on the scale in a while but at last check I was 135 which is still 12 pounds over my pre-baby weight. I am settling in to being a mom of 2. Hadley is 2 and is so fun but can be challenging. Treva is 4 months old and we have been having some issues with her and her tummy. She is colicky and right now she is down and out with an ear infection. We have been up a lot through the night and not sleeping very well. She is not able to tolerate breast milk so we have gone the formula route with her. With Hadley, I was back to pre-pregnancy weight when she was 5 weeks old.
Life has been throwing challenges at me. I seem to just eat when I can and do not have meals planned out. With this, I do not always make the right choices...I just throw anything in my mouth that I can to be able to get everything done and still have a little time to relax at the end of the evening. Prior to this ear infection I was getting up and running in the morning before my husband went to work. I will get back in to this routine once we are only getting up once a night. I have used food journaling in the past and need to get back into this habit.
I am excited to join you all as we all support and encourage each other in the fight against fat. I look forward to reading about all the strides we are making and watching the pounds fall off. Each of us have our own challenges and obstacles in life but with this support we can all attain our own personal goals, no matter how small or large the goal.
Being a mom is what I have always wanted to do and be...and for that I am grateful. I will accept changes that happen to my body because I am beautiful as a mother and wife. I am not willing to accept motherhood as an excuse. Thanks for welcoming me to your blog and I hope that I will be able to encourage each of you and you do the same for me.
Glad to have you on here!
