I am starting this blog as a secretly public incentive for me to keep on the path of healthfulness. If things continue in the same pattern, I have six months to lose my pregnancy weight before another. One week ago I weighed 188 pounds. This week I am down to 175 pounds. Not bad for one week, but I've got a long way to go! My ideal weight is 130. My reasons for losing the weight are for health, energy, and self esteem. Right now what I am doing to attain that goal is minimal: drink lots of water, breastfeed, avoid desserts, and eat healthy (I am using this generic term because meals right now are whatever is easy to cook, eat, and clean.) It's not much, but it's a start.
ETA: I didn't give the most important reason for my wish to be healthy (and therefore lose weight) and that is my children, whether they happen to be nursing, in the womb, needing me to chase them around all day, or needing me to be fully present for lessons.
