You'll wanna cheat.
Just don't cheat with a pint of ice cream.
Ben and jerrys, starbucks and a few others have "serving size" cups which run around 200 calories. Not a low calorie snack necessarily...but its a lot better than mindless snacking from a pint when suddenly...you see the bottom of the container! You won't feel full, fatty or guilty :)
Just a thought. :)
This is a rough day. I don't feel very positive. I've been eating well, and often to keep up with milk supply. The swelling in my feet and legs has gone down but I still feel icky.
My end weight was 288. *gulp*
I know its a work in progress, but I feel so down today. Inside influences have me feeling blue. Benefit? I've got a beautiful 3 year old and a beautiful newborn girl.
Ill start exercise in 5 weeks. But the calories will stay up a little bit to allow for breastmilk. :)
Sigh. Ill write more later. Tonight I'm reflecting on my family, my babies. I don't need no negativity clouding such a pretty thing.
Home stretch of pregnancy. About 2.5 weeksish until she is gonna be here depending on punctuality and my body.
In recent weeks I've craved big macs, and despite that have lost a couple lbs. I eat every 2 hours to keep my energy up. And yesterday I started regular raspberry tea with fresh fruit slices. YUM. Gotta keep that up after baby!
No real updates. I'm less weight than when I started this blog after having my son but there's still time :) I'm happy but tired. All The Time. I hope to feel normal after I have her! Life is good friends. Remember that. Fat or thin...you are Alive!
I've done fairly well with the whole not gaining 70 lbs thing. (I'm at slightly less than 40 so far). My body gains...I have accepted it. However after a really rough food poison I'm amazed at what my body can take. I won't be TOO graphic....but let's just say it started at 6am, and when I went to the doc for fluids for the baby, I had lost over 5lbs. They gave me some imodium (I bet you can figure out the problem) and some fluids and checked on my girl...she is all right. 3 days in and I've been able to eat toast, crackers, bad idea to eat cereal, and I ate some soup. Looking up now but it was pretty bad for awhile. Grateful for my body's resilience, strength, beauty in my baby, and great doctors.
:) in 12 weeks ill be resuming weight loss posts. :) here's hoping I only gain 1lb a week as I'm supposed to! Water isn't piling on yet! :)
Stay healthy friends!
Soooooo I've been trying to be healthy. Ate cereal for breakfast, subway for lunch and soup and greens beans for dinner. And a skinny cow. All in all I didn't even hit the 2k I'm allotted for the day to be responsible. Jamie brought home muchas. I'm still munchie hungry. And jamie brings home MUCHAS. Sigh. Tests are all around...I refuse it!
