I know that I have just had a baby…8 weeks ago. I mean I NEED to get my act together…I went into this pregnancy heavier than I wanted to be and now of course coming out of it…I am almost afraid of breaking the scale! Oh now I don’t want to see any comments on here about me not looking big or anything…ladies that’s why I wear bigger clothes…to hide the rolls! And there is a certain amount of obligation that comes when you read this…you feel like you need to say something nice…let me just say, if you do then I will whip out the nasty truth (my pictures) and you will forever be scared! Don’t believe me…try me!
Just a side note…Last night I took a picture of me in my undies…to see the real damage…and there is QUITE A BIT! I think that’s why we God made us love our kids so much…because we would resent them for our bodies…;)
Now I know that I can lose this weight…but I need help on good approaches…because I am still breastfeeding and want to keep on doing that for at least a year (Lord willing)! And our next problem is I am lazy…no other way to put it…down right LAZY! When I am at home…I get bored and want to eat, Ethan is snacking…so should I, the food is right there…why not take care of that problem…just eat it, and lastly I love my food! I mean really…we have a great appreciation for eachother…it’s such a great friend because it ALWAYS sticks with me…if you know what I mean!
So now that I am being honest…Hi, my name is Brittany and I have a weight problem…help me!

Let’s get honest…this is ridiculous!

Okay, that made me laugh. You are too funny. Here’s the thing… we all feel different after having babies, even if our sizes are similar to where we started. I wish I had some magical motivation, but if I did, I wouldn’t be feeling badly about myself right now either. I hate to say it, but we have to eat healthy and exercise. Vegetables and walking. The whole exercise thing is so hard when you have kids. I’m still trying to figure that out with just one baby. So clearly, my advice is basically useless. Sorry.

Haley is right. Eat healthy (and less) and move more. I recently was shown the site http://www.settingcaptivesfree.com/home/ and their program The Lord’s Table.
Now, I am not saying this is the issue with you, but God has definitely opened my eyes to how my eating (overeating and eating in times of frustration, boredom, stress, etc) and lack of exercise are actually sin in my life. I have been turning to food when I should be turning to him, and have been lazy and sloth-like when it comes to exercise. TLT study has been very eye-opening to me…and REALLY convicting. If you are interested, we could keep each other accountable.
Again, not saying these are sin issues for you, but they definitely are for me (and talk about humbling to realize that!).

This was hilarious! If I knew anything about diet and exercise I would insert my two cents…but I don’t. I will take notes from Haley and Stephanie instead! I can’t imagine how you would have time for anything with two kiddos!
