For breakfast, I eat cereal or oatmeal with splenda. Then for lunch I have been having a huge salad with spinach and spring mix, carrots, and a little bit of maple-mustard dressing. I also have some sort of small entree…usually vegetarian. For snack I make a smoothie with strawberries, a banana, skim milk, and splenda. Than dinner, I have whatever I want. I need to make more veggies though…. but Nick seems so sensitive to alot of them in my breastmilk. After I wean him I’ll be able to eat more of the cruciferous ones, like broccoli, cauliflower and onions. I have been pretty good with portion control, but will need to reduce it down even more after I wean.

Exercise has also gone well, I am able to pump it pretty hard! Weights have helped alot, since I am starting from ground zero. They help with my strrength to do everythign else, and seem to be energizing me.

Right now I am at a 10lb loss, from 226 to 216. A bit ahead of schedule, but could be a little better. I am hoping to be under 200 lbs by the tradeshow at the end of September, under 180 would be ideal if I can really lose good this summer. I want to look professional, and it’s hard when you feel tired and lumpy.

I just hope the momentum stays god, or gets even better. Ill write again soon!
