So, I've decided to post a picture each month, along with my weight, to track my weight loss "progress". Weight has always been something I struggled with. But if I look back at years 11-19, I was healthy! Then I moved and it went downhill from there.
I did lose over 30lbs at the beginning of my pregnancy. I had all day sickness up till about 5 months. After ducking out of my doctor's appointment 5 times, he decided he had to put me on some medicine to keep me from vomiting.
After having Emery I had lost about 5 lbs. Then came the breastfeeding and I lost another 20. And now I'm down to a total of 29 lbs lost! Yay me!
Now, I want to start working out and eating healthy. Easier said than done (just had a Swiss chocolate roll). I also realized that I have to start slow because it's been a while since I've worked out and since I plan to pump as long as I can, I still have to take in quite a few calories for my milk production to keep coming.
Even with that, I'm hoping to be down to 130 lbs by the end of this year! So wish me luck! And here's to my first "weight" post!
May 2010, 174 lbs

p/s no worries people, the baby is sound asleep and I went back to holding her after the picture was taken.
