Why did I do it?! I stepped on the scale, damn it!! I know it’s only a number, but I still have SIX POUNDS left to lose to be at my pre-pregnancy weight.
I guess I sort of thought (hoped) that with all the walking we did in Italy and the several days I have spent eating like a bird, because I have been too stuffed up to even taste food that I would have lost those last few extra pesky pounds. I was wrong. Boo hoo!
This is definitely the hardest time of the year to be watching what I eat; with the holiday parties, my mother-in-law’s amazing cooking, libations o’plenty and all the other sinful goodies. But, I have a plan. I have asked Santa for a trainer! 😉 I have never had a trainer before and I am very excited and a little scared. And now that you are over six months old, I can actually take you with me to the gym and put you in the Kid’s Club for a couple of hours (with trained/certified/professional child care takers). Operation Get Fit starts next week!!
I fit in to one pair of my pre-pregnancy jeans, but there are many more where that came from, along with corduroys, slacks, skirts, dresses and bikinis I am bound and determined to wear them all again.
The best is yet to be.

A trainer?! How fancy of you! I have no doubt that with the help of a trainer you'll have no problem losing those lousy few pounds you speak of. But for the record, as your sister, I don't see them! You look fabulous! Its hard to believe that you had a baby 6 months ago! All my friends continue to tell me how awesome you look now. It doesn't even look like you have a belly at all now. I think a lot of this “weight” is in your head, so to speak. So, relax and take it easy on yourself. And stay off the scale! : )
