Weekly Wednesday Weigh-In: 10 Weeks Postpartum

1. Reiterate my goal and where I stand in reference to this goal. (BMI info from this website)

Starting weight: 149 (Down from 168 the day before I gave birth to Baby G.)
Goal Weight: 125
Last Week's Weight: 149
Current Weight: 149

Starting BMI: 27.2
Goal BMI: 22.9
Last Week's BMI: 27.2
Current BMI: 27.2

2. Discuss what I am going to do to achieve my goals.

Progress on last week's activities:
I did better with my water intake and took a yoga class, but that's really all I did. It's a shame I don't feel like I have much time to do anything when I get home from work. The weather this week is amazing!

Activities for this coming week:

1. Twenty minute walk 2 times this week.
2. Eat a home cooked meal 3 times this week.
3. Snack on veggies and fruit instead of cookies and brownies.
4. Drink at least 8oz of water each after each nursing/pumping session.

4. Post a (reasonably healthy) recipe that I've tried, a cooking tip, a new idea for working out for people to try, a photo update of my weight loss, or anything else I feel like sharing.

I didn't gain, but I didn't lose either. I keep thinking my goal weight is my pre-pregnancy weight and I have soo far to go, but that just isn't true. I really only have about 12lbs to go before I get down to my pre-Baby G weight. I hear those last 10lbs are the hardest to take off, so I am trying not to stress over it. Yet. I know I shouldn't stress over it as long as I'm breast feeding. My goal weight is where I'd ideally like to be. It's where I feel the healthiest and best physically. It's where I'd really like to be before I start trying to conceive again.

I think I've just hit a plateau. I'm okay with it at the moment as long as I don't start gaining. I have a couple of classes in mind which should help me out with those last 10-20lbs as long as I can find it in my budget take them!
