Realization
I need to watch my weight again. I am not pleased with myself.
I liked my weight before I had Eric. I had further improvements to go but it was getting on track to where I wanted to be. Even last summer was good because I lost most of the "baby weight" right away.
I heard nursing really burned up the calories. It must. When I think back, it was probably in the December - January time frame when it began. That's when I gradually began weening Eric to one feeding just before bed. And I'm sure the holidays didn't help any there either. However, I've really noticed it since Eric decided to stop nursing about a month ago. Or, should I say, that's when I was brave enough to step on that scale.
It boils down to watching what and how much I eat and adding some type of exercise back into my routine.
