Good mothers make sure their children have enough food to eat. During James' incubation I did due diligence and made sure he had plenty of nutritious foods coming his way. Judging by his nine-and-a-half pound birthweight, I think I did fine.
Since then I have been working to lose the food storage that he put to the side (or should I say the hips) for his later benefit. To help it move along I've been eating healthily and exercizing.
This week is the sixth week of a diet I started and more notably, it is the last week. I have been restricting my intake to fruits, vegetables, and legumes. Even though I love fruits and vegetables, this has required incredible discipline. Especially since I am blessed to have a husband who likes to cook. But survive I did, just barely.
I am proud to say that by watching what I eat, and by exercizing, I am almost down to my pre-James' weight. Hooray!!!
Daniel: Good job, Honey!
King James: You have done well. Reward yourself one Whopper combo.
So, to reward myself, and to motivate me to continue, we treated ourselves to Burger King yesterday. We both had Whopper combos. Ahhhhhh......
This was a treat to be savored. Especially since I won't be having it for awhile as I ramp up my plans to lose the last stubborn pounds and tone the residual muscle.
