It turns out I’ve already lost 20 of the 40 pounds I gained with Natalie’s pregnancy. Twenty more pounds to go and I’ve only just begun. Totally manageable if you ask me! As soon as these 6 weeks are up and I can start exercising again, I’m getting back to the YMCA to shed these pounds. There’s an elliptical there with my name on it.

After shedding 20 pounds, then getting pregnant and gaining an enormous belly and the aforementioned 40 pounds, I am downright sick of switching from one clothing size to the next. My bedroom is littered with clothing from every different stage. My wardrobe needs stability (not to mention some better fashion sense). I am anxious to lose that 20 pounds again so I can settle into a nice healthy size. And then… then I will go shopping!!
