I Lost 3 Pounds, Has Anyone Seen It?

It’s been 9 days since I last posted, for which I apologize. Spring cleaning fever has gotten its hold on me and I’ve been washing and organizing like mad when I’m not running after my toddler or breastfeeding my 2 month old son.

Since having my son, I’ve been trying to watch what I eat and keep from gaining weight. At first, this was almost impossible as my husband kept bringing home bag fulls of chocolate almost every night! I am a chocolate freak and I absolutely cannot keep away from it. I was also not very active as I was recovering from a cesearean section and gall bladder surgery.

I’ve gained about ten pounds since coming home from the hospital. I couldn’t do too much about that since I was breastfeeding and it’s usually not good to diet while doing that. Now that he is drinking more formula, I’ve been trying to lose that ten pounds.

Fortunately, this spring cleaning I’ve been doing for the past week has helped me lose 3 pounds already. If I’m not running up and down the stairs with loads of laundry, I’m washing walls and scrubbing floors.

I guess in summary, I can thank my dirty house for helping me lose 3 pounds!
