Ten Days In

I have an almost 6 month old baby and weight about 16 pounds over my usual weight.


I called it on January 19th and I've got until March 16th to get to middleweight.


Weighed myself today-an even 169 lbs on my new Tanita (made in Japan) supposedly very accurate scale. So virtually no change from initial weigh-in. Not a surprise, I guess, since my initial weigh-in was actually a couple of pounds less than I have generally been weighing recently. Also not a surprise since my husband went out of town for a week and just got back last night so I've been alone with the kids. Also, my car broke down last week and I waited 13 hours for CAA to come tow it and when they finally arrived at midnight it actually worked, only to not work the next morning when I was leaving to take my daughter to daycare and go to work. I found out how much it costs to take a taxi to my work and it is a lot.


So I've only managed to get in two short workouts. In retrospect, it probably didn't make sense to call it right when my husband was going away but I really want to get out of these maternity jeans ! Oh well, six-and-a-half weeks to go...
