Baby Shower!

I am really excited.  I am going to the baby shower that is being given for my little boy who is now 5 weeks old.  The bad thing about this is all the bad food that is going to be there.  I am really bad about giving into temptations.

I am trying to tell myself i Can have things i like i just have to be careful not to over do it.  It is easier said than done though it seems like.  I really need some support.

here it is girl!

i think the most important thing is to enjoy yourself.  now, i'm not saying to go all out, but maybe they'll have a great fruit or veggie tray there - i know it's not a big piece of cake, but it'll fill you up and you won't end up feeling guilty.  and if you plan on staying op for the rest of the day, a tiny piece of cake won't hurt : )

Rightg there w/ you

I would have a hard time with that too. I am already gearing up for my ds bday Monday - cause I'm having cake so I'll skip something tomorrow. But if they were having petit fors at your shower I would be done for, I could eat a whole tray of those -YUM!! Oh but - i guess I should eat the fruit, but  I also think you should enjoy it a bit. everything in moderation

Hi there!

Just remember, how we like to hear about the will power!  If you do give in, just give in a little.  Try not to overindulge!  You have lost 23 LBS!  That is so awesome.  Keep up the Great and Hard work you are doing.  You know it is paying off!!!!!!  Keep it going GIRL!

hi

I have 3 little ones, and I have struggled to lose weight after each one (youngest is 9 mos, and I am just now starting to really see the last pounds come off).  But it happens.  Just remember that one of the triggers for appetite is sleep deprivation... something hard to avoid with a 5 wk old!  Don't rush yourself and don't give up when ou have a slip up.  Just keep plugging and enjoy your little baby.
