If anyone ever said it's not hard to lose weight after having a baby, that's a sure sign that they're on crack.

( Cut just to get this out of my system... )

*hugs*

I know you can do it, sweetie. Will can help out -- you can do baby bench-presses. :D

Heh. He's topped 18 pounds now, even though he's still scrawny for his age -- lugging him around in his car seat is good exercise.

...Don't think I'd be able to get him to stop wriggling and squirming long enough for bench-presses, though, *lol*

I'm telling you -- baby's first straight jacket has a wide array of uses :)

Alas, even then I think he's pretty much mastered wriggling like a worm, heh.

Awww. *hugs* I think weight is something that all women struggle with and losing it is a never-ending battle. Wait til Will starts walking-then you'll drop all the weight by chasing after him!

Seriously though, good luck with losing the post-pregnancy weight. I have a feeling I'll be in the same boat as you whenever we have kids.

Just remember that you are beautiful no matter what the weight!

I never used to; before we moved to Canada, I went on a diet as moral support for Dom, and dropped 20 pounds without a second thought. I didn't even realize I'd needed to, but I really enjoyed fitting into size 6 jeans and cute little tops.

Now it's just disheartening. I've never considered myself remotely beautiful, and I've generally been okay with that, but now I can't stand looking at pictures anymore, and I hate what it says about me that I feel that way.

I know the feeling. I've always been a champion for 'love your body as it is' and I always reminded my friends who were concerned about their weight as it is. Then this past year, I stopped fitting into some of my clothes and I've been so upset about it. And I don't like to look at my pictures now either whereas before I was fine with them ( ... )
