What are 3 things that I can't remember what they feel like????
DING DING DING.. COOORREECT


Well.. I am beyond exhausted and stressed out.. totally the stereotypical 1st time mommy. So when I complain or breakdown from lack of sleep I try and remind myself at least... billions of other women go thru this too.. Does that make me feel better?? Uh.. not really. But when I see her face ... it makes it worth it..

So now I am down to 171 or 171.6 depending on the time of day.. damn weight flucuating. I will admit I have not been counting my points.. BUT I do keep track in my head.. I basically have an idea of what I can eat and what I cannot eat throughout the day.. I have been slacking in the exercise dept though.. :( After chasing this baby around the last thing I want to do when she finally naps is exercise.. I have been trying to push myself though..

The best part of losing this stupid weight is getting my confidence back. I am feeling brand new.. its kinda nice. well more than kinda nice. It's great. :) Good stuff. I know I posted before about losing myself after having Emma.. which is still basically a true story but slowly I am getting back to my old-self. And I am getting pretty much used to the exhaustion and not having enough time in the day to do everything I need to do.....

With being a mommy.. I finally feel appreciated.. It's been a really long time.. if not the 1st time I truly felt appreciated ...she can't tell me.. But I know she does. :)
