he's here!
Well guys I welcomed baby Ryder several weeks ago into my life.....and I'm tired!!!! I love every minute of it but babies are alot of hard work! In my fog of mental exhaustion I may not be making much sense so forgive me!
I'm several weeks out and find myself one pound below where I started which is a big WOO HOO moment for me.........HOWEVER I find myself grazing on the forbidden sugary pastures and cannot seem to control myself. HELP! Talk me down from this.....I'm having more cravings than when I was pregnant! Is this due to the hormonal fluctuations (I had a tubal while they were at it)? Am I doomed forever to sneaking a handful (or two) of M&Ms at the midnite feeding frenzy? Will I go back to normal once I get my butt back to work.
I just can't seem to get back to my healthy eating.....to freakin tired to think a menu through. Any helpful hints appreciated!
Tish!!!!! Hi Baby....
I got nuttin for ya on that post preggo time. If I had it to live over again, I would just make sure one meal a day was as "healthy" as I could get, no matter what I *wanted*. I'd steam spinach or kale and do up a chicken breast and throw some toasted walnuts over all of it.
Back when I was breeding, we did not have the money for decent food, not that I would have eaten it anyway. I was into oreos, with extra frosting no less, and hostess cakes, etc. I look back and truly, I should be 400+ pounds. The only thing that saved me was we owned a car about two months of any given year, so even to do grocery shopping, hoof it.
Oh yeah, get out the house and walk no matter what! I know, you're tired...even 10 minutes to blow the stink off ya!
Give that baby boy a kiss.
