It's just not possible. As you noticed I've totally stopped. When I make the decision to wean the little monkey I will start to diet (heck it will dry my up quicker). So don't worry dear. I think you look fab in the pictures you've been posting. Stop fretting over weight, enjoy being a mom to your newbie Ben. He won't be little forever.Maribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07445256295178872164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7262794.post-621142499141447072008-06-23T19:09:00.000-07:002008-06-23T19:09:00.000-07:00Yeah, I keep doing the same thing!I work out, then...Yeah, I keep doing the same thing!<BR/>I work out, then have ice cream for dessert.

I always thought it was too hard to get skinny while nursing since you are super hungry and thirsty all the time. It will all come off eventually - and for me, that took a YEAR so you are light years ahead of what I was. You rock sista!<BR/><BR/>P.S. I remember senior year you were around 150 and super tiny. You've had 3 kids yo! Don't be so hard on yourself :)<BR/>P.P.S.

I get annoyed when the numbers can change depending on something so silly as whether or not I drank an extra sip of water or am gassy or haven't had a BM all day, but it does help somewhat. I do measurements and check for clothes, but with the measurements - am I pulling the same tautness, am I at the same place - and with clothes, well I tend not to wash pants for awhile so they always feel lose, then after a washing, well are they tight b/c they're tight, or just because I've been wearing them dirty! The scale is the only thing that at least will tell me something consistently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7262794.post-38306873112486274372008-06-23T09:11:00.000-07:002008-06-23T09:11:00.000-07:00PS I gained my post-college 20 pounds living out t...PS I gained my post-college 20 pounds living out there in Hayward/San Leandro with Demian...enough to depress anyone!!

At my desk, ...I still love you! and I'm right here. At my desk, at work, not really working. Thank goodness for RSS readers. <BR/><BR/>I honestly have no recollection of your measurements -- I was too excited to see you trying on wedding dresses. (which, incidentally, I just did with Ali and was also very fun.) Also, you probably looked fantastic in the dress and that was all that mattered. So chin up little one! <BR/><BR/>And, quite honestly, throw out that scale. When I was trying to lose weight a few years post-college (moving back in with my parents was depressing and led to eating way too much crap and gaining roughly 20 pounds), I just started exercising and watching what I ate and NOT weighing myself b/c it just led to unhealthy obsessing. The best measure is what you already described: Your sense of your own body image and most importantly, how your clothes fit. That will tell you more than any stupid scale. <BR/><BR/>Granted, I was not juggling three kids and a house at the time, but I still think the things you're already doing (exercising, trying to eat in moderation) are the best antidotes. Juggling three kids doesn't hurt either!evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979563618994127040noreply@blogger.com
