Before After

It takes so little

 for me to gain weight.  I gain weight faster than my husband does!  I know I'm eating too much, but it's not from binging or supersized fast food meals.  For the most part, I'm eating very healthy but I'm having a hard time with stress and fatigue.  I'm still adjusting to the baby.  Ironically, it's not the baby that's "in the way" it's everything else I have to keep doing like teaching, paying bills, house work, washing my clothes, working out, buying milk because we are out, etc.  The world doesn't stop so I can just raise my child and be with my husband.  So...I'm still adjusting.  If for now my weight stabilizes I'm not going to beat myself up for it.  I'm really working on gathering up the emotional reserves I need to watchg the amounts/calories I'm eating but I'm so distracted with everything else!

Happy Birthday...tomorrow!

I think once you have a child, it's an ever adjusting process.  You're doing great!

It takes time!

 

Don't be too hard on yourself. Having a baby and getting used to a completely new rythm takes time. It's not something that just happens overnight. So don't push it too hard, your body and mind need time to get used to all the new things in your life! And trust me, I know things can be quite overwhelming!
