I knew this wouldn't be easy...

Well, I have meant to post but have been falling asleep before I get a chance. Friday and Saturday were good days. I did not exercise besides my usual running around all day but I did watch what I ate. I guess more then watching what I ate, I watched how much I ate. I tried not to eat too much. My big weakness is sweets. I love them and once I start eating them I can't stop. It is funny because people say that because I am breastfeeding the weight will come right off but when you eat a whole lot, the extra calories burned from breastfeeding don't do a whole lot. Yesterday was an alright day but I ate a little bit too many sweets. It was my first day back to work and by lunch I was starving. I tried to eat throughout the morning to keep from feeling starving but it did not happen. It probably would not have been so bad but I forgot that I was trying to be good because I was so hungry. That seems strange but all I could think was that I had 30 min to eat and pump and I was starving. I did go for a 30min power walk. It definitely was a power walk because I was trying to keep up with my son riding his bike.

My plan is to keep a good journal about what I eat and schedule exercise and stick to it. I really want to feel good about myself when I go to the lake or pool this summer.
