Checking in.... Topic

So I haven't checked in here in a while and I see that's it's not super active, but thought that I would update anyway.

It's been almost 10.5 months since the birth of my son and it's been 3 months since I stopped BFing. At the time I stopped BFing, I was 16 pounds over my pre-pregnancy weight. I have to say that I wasn't being "strict" about my calorie intake and it took me a while to get my exercise routine back up and running. Sooo.... I've lost a mere 2 pounds since mid-April! Argh!

So I'm getting serious about it again and keeping track of my calorie intake, etc. - religiously - here on MyNetDiary.

But it is so much harder than I remember when I lost 64 pounds in 2009 - prior to getting pregnant! I feel like I am starving all of the time. Ahhh, well, I think it's more likely that my body got kind of used to being able to eat anything and still lose weight (while I was BFing) and needs to "remember" what a day of reasonable consumption should really feel like.

Anyway, I'm a little hungry now but I know my bod will get used to fewer calories soon. So I'm sticking with it!
