18-6-2009 - Waiting

My mood while writing this blog: happy

We have decided to wait another 10 months before trying to have our last little one. We joined the gym 2 months ago and I have also been seeing a personal trainer. I have gotten much stronger since starting, I have lost almost 6 inches total. My scale says down 4 lbs but I havent gotten weighed at the gym again yet and as of last I hadnt lost anything at the gym.

Christian will be 6 months tomorrow, he rolls, and sits and loves his baby food. Amazingly his favorites are squash and sweet potato. He gets up every morning around 4 or 5 am for a diaper change and bottle then sleeps again till around 8 or 9. He has a gorgeous smile and a loud piercing scream when he doesnt get his way. Yes he demands HIS way, he wants to be carried at all times and if you put him down there is hell to pay. OMG did I screw up!! Everyone told me not to carry him so much but I didnt listen and now I have to listen ... to him scream!!

But have I learned my lesson .. no I still want 1 more baby. I have made small changes like switching to organic milk and eatting lots of seafood, I have made small calorie changes and will continue to make more. I want to lose at least a good 50 pounds because with Chris I had gestational diabeties and had to constantly be checking my blood sugars and was on the verge of needing insulin shots and I dont want to go through that again. I was watching a show on I forgot what channel last night but it was about morbidly obese women who were pregnant and the struggles they were going through and I cried so much I dont want to be them.

So here I go on my journey to health and hopefully will be back to update some weight loss and then another pregnancy!!
