Getting my body back
Now that I have been cleared to do exercise by my OB, I would really like to try to get my body back. I am about 19 pounds heavier than I was at 8 weeks pregnant. I am pretty happy about that seeing that at 40 weeks pregnant I was 215 pounds. I am not sure what I am going to do about exercise yet, I am thinking I am probably going to walk first since I can do that with Hunter. The problem is that I really don't want to 'diet'. I have gotten in trouble with dieting before where I become obsessed with calories or points or whatever the diet makes you watch and it becomes a vicious cycle where I make myself feel bad because I have 'failed'. Jake has decided to do Weight Watchers again since it works for him. I know that I cannot do it again so am going to just try to eat healthy and make Weight Watchers dinners and see how it goes. Since I don't weigh myself anymore, we will just have to go by how my clothes fit.

Diets don't ever seem to really work for people. They loose the weight, stop the diet and gain all the weight back. Over the years, I have incorporated healthy life style choices and I take them one at a time. First I gave up soda (all soda, even diet), then limiting red meat, and so on. I took the eating changes one at a time. Last year I started eating protein based snacks. Eating should be about life style choices, not dieting. I can give you more infomration if you want some help.
