Profile Information
- About Me:
- I live and work right outside Washington, DC. Before that I was living north of Cincinnati. I am originally from upstate NY (outside of Ithaca).
I am a new mom. Henry was born on September 10. Right after the birth I had lost all the baby weight (17 lbs) and more (25 lbs total), but in the past 3 months I have put back on about 10 lbs. I have been on maternity leave and I find myself emotionally eating quite a bit, plus nursing made me so hungry! I am returning to work on January 4th, so hopefully I will be able to get back into a groove then. I do so much better when I have a structured schedule. I still have a good 70 lbs more to lose (had it before becoming pregnant!).
For the next year, I am going to:
-eat 3 meals and 2 snacks each day--eat whatever/whenever I want, but keep my calories less than 1800
-exercise 3-5 times a week, either at the gym during my lunch or through walks with my family--want it to be fun!
-focus on whole foods and eat less sugary things--but make sure to make the 5 eating times enjoyable!
-drink plenty of fluids--this one is hard for me!
-work on my mental health--better self esteem, body image, and stress management
-weigh in every Thursday--but do not focus on weight!
-journal my food daily
-post a blog entry weekly

Tawnya said… - I am doing great. We had a sonogram on Monday and got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat. The hubby had never seen a sonogram before so it was awesome. Just trying to get ready for Christmas. I hope that you have a Merry Christmas and enjoy your first with Henry!
