Getting back on track

Jul 20, 2010

  Well it’s been a slow but steady process. I made the decision to get my post delivery weight off, and I have been making very conscious steps toward that goal. I have gotten some excellent advice and go to references to look into from people on this site. (Molly) I have started with the most basic rule I was breaking after I became pregnant. I started drinking with my meals. Now I wait at least 30 minutes like we were taught before we had the surgery. This little step has helped me stay full longer, and therefore not want to snack 30-40 minutes after a meal. I have also stopped drinking soda, and eating my toast for breakfast, and snacks. I had developed this little addiction to Italian white bread from Wal-Mart. I would pop two slices in for breakfast, and then two more at lunch. Its fast and what else would I have time for with an over active baby who insist on behind held all day (spoiled). However, I also picked up less junk when I went to Wal-Mart today. I didn’t buy my snack cakes, and other treats. I purchased more fruit’s, and nuts.   My goals for next week is to start walking at least three days, and go from there. I’m setting realistic goals, and just trying to be faithful to them. I also have been taking my vitamins daily. The only downside for me is vitamins make me even hungrier. However, I have been able to ward of the hunger thru prayer, and just telling myself it’s just the vitamins not really a need to hit the kitchen. I will not even entertain the scale until I feel a great difference. I’m not going to get caught up in numbers right not. I know I can’t exercise the way I want to without a gym membership so I can’t burn or shed the pounds as fast if I was going so I’m going slow. I pray this journey takes me to where I need to be for good health. The vanity side is just a bonus in my book!
