What a relief that I didn't see the 160s today! One thing I've improved on re: dieting is that I refuse to let my weight control my mood or make me have a bad day. If it's up, it's up...I'm still the same person and God is still there, controlling it all. In the end, weight is not worth it.

But it's a good long-term goal. I know I'm happier and more comfortable at a lower weight, and it shouldn't be too hard to lose while I'm bf'ing and since it's 10# over a weight (150) that's been relatively easy to maintain.

Next week will be harder while at my Mom's, but I'll try to control myself. If I don't go off the deep end, I'm usually ok. The deep end is multiple bowls of sugar cereal or standing at the washer in the back room eating 1 bakery cookie after another. ;-)

160.4 - 150s I miss you!! :(

Exercise: Nada :(

Ate:
Fried eggs n toast
Iced coffee
Iced green tea
Chicken pot pie
2 bowls of Life cereal w Truvia & soy milk (the Life is gone now - what a relief!)
Celery n peanut butter (we've run out of pb too! What am I gonna eat tmo?!)
Water

I craved peanut butter all day today and finally broke down in the early evening. I've gotten my 4-yo addicted to spoonfuls of it, so he helped finish it off. I at least had celery with mine!

Baby STILL has diarrhea. :( But she seems to feel fine. She's eating and p'ing normally, so I think it just needs to run its course.

I'm boring today. Just a day in the life!! I've got one kid asleep on my belly and one snoozing beside me...better get them in their beds, so I can be alone for a tiny bit before passing out myself!

160.4 (156, it was fun while it lasted!)

Exercise: pushed strollered baby all over soccer fields; walked 30' w/2 big sisters (I <3 them.)

Iced coffee (usual)

Clif Builder's vanilla almond protein bar
Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Water

Romaine lettuce
Poppy seed dressing
Flavorice Popsicle
Apple
Peanut butter
A few bites of everyone else's Italian ice

Of course I gained after yesterday's frenzy. Eating when you're not hungry is definitely a no-no! Weekends are so hard, but they're even more so with company. I wouldn't trade a visit from fab big sis2 for ANYthing, tho!!

I also ate pita chips yesterday - my current weakness. They're just too good! The bag is gone now tho, so I just have to avoid buying them again. Or maybe just not buy the massive Costco bag!

Today was better. Only thing I sort of lost it on was the peanut butter. I may be able to get away with that while nursing - time will tell.

My 8-yo won a sportsmanship medal for hardest worker in soccer today. So proud!! We are both working hard. :)
