Its only taken 32 years, but I'm finally learning that my moods are just that. Moods. It is a tremendous relief to truly, finally, believe that. I've always wanted to believe that, but have always, always doubted it. Meaning - I used to think (read believe completely/profoundly) that what I feel is an indication of everything about me and my life and the universe. Had I known this before, I might have saved myself (and others) some (okay, massive amounts of) grief. I think I feel a bit like a re...Tuesday, August 8th 2006
I'm going to sneak 10 minutes post work out while Will is still sleeping to write a note in here. This moment is unheard of. Even if I can begin my workout alone, he always wakes up part way through. Who would have thunk that a workout alone would become a luxury?! Appreciate it, people!
I didn't.Continued weight loss is going slowly. I plateaued for 4 weeks after steadily losing, then lost 3 pounds last week. ?! My measurements are okay but still a far cry from my lowest. Keep on keepi...

One thing, among many, that has taken me a while to get used to about being a mother is that I can't plan much. It sounds piddly, or oversimplistic, but you never realize how for granted you take the random thoughts like "I want to journal more" before you have a baby - before Will, I knew that if I did journal more it would be because of a choice to prioritze my day in a way that allowed for it. Now - I can't even make that assumption - ie that my day is prioritizable. Its not. Will c...Sunday, July 9th 2006
134 - I didn't expect it, so I was very pleased. My waist measurement is finally under 30 after 9 months of pregnancy and 8 months of post-pregnancy...17 months. Yikes. No wonder women have trouble "getting their figure back" - by the time the pregnancy is over and weight gone, its literally been 1.5 years, a long time in "weight" years.Yesterday was my off day, and I didn't log - I estimate approx. 2000.
Today is my challenging day. We're going to brats and corn t...

So - remember my ranting about my pregnancy weightthat wouldn't budge? Well, all but 5lbs of it has come off. Which is wonderful.But - (there has to be one, right?) - I'm TONS less muscular than my 135 prior to Will, and I feel/sense that if I don't get the last 5 off before I get pregnant again (which makes me want to hurl to think about right at this moment) it won't ever come off.
At different points of this process of losing (both prior to and after Will), different things have be...
