I'm definitely a slacker. But I have my reasons. I know I've mentioned my kids' uncanny ability to get sick and pass illness around. Did I also mention that I'm still nursing my 13 month old? So on top of all the cooties in my house, I now have mastitis. For real!? This is my last baby, my last little nursling, and I'm in the weaning process as we speak, and...mastitis? Come.on. 55 months of my life, or 4 and a half years, I have spent breast feeding. This is not the send-off I was hoping for! Oh well, my boobs are going into retirement after this clears up, so I'll never have to worry about that again.
In other news, I know I have slacked on the weigh-in Mondays, but I am proud to announce I have hit the 10 pound mark! Here are the stats:
Starting Point: 175
Last Week's Weight: Not sure, didn't even weigh in
This Week's Weight: 165!!!
Pounds lost: 10
Challenges this Week: These last few weeks I have been sick with one thing or another. It's hard to eat healthy when you're sick.
Accomplishments this week: I have definitely been eating less than normal because of the cooties in the house. When your kids are puking everywhere it doesn't exactly make you want to eat. Also antibiotics make my tummy hurt. I do fear that when I start eating normally that I'll gain again, we'll see.
Oh and I colored my hair dark brown again. It won't be this dark in a week or so, but I'm kind of diggin it now! I loved the red but it's so high maintenance. I'll do it again one day. My kids all miss my red hair :-(






This made me laugh, my boobs are going into retirement. I am excited to say that I only have 5 more months before I can say that!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh.
Poor thing! I had that once, and it is so painful! I couldn't bring myself to wean my daughter until she was 21 months! I loved the bonding time we shared plus the added benefits of a very high metabolism while nursing. Once I wanted to stop though, it took only a couple of days (by then she was only nursing at night). Good luck, and I like the dark brown hair!
