Okay so my title is 100% true, unless you are really craving uhh let's say maybe a donut or ice cream, possibly even a tropical smoothie! If you can't tell by my title or cravings I've been on a diet. Yes it has been challenging, but OH SO WORTH IT! I started on April 8th (18 days ago) and I only have 5 days to go. I've been trying for a long time to lose what's left of the baby weight and to be honest Weston is almost 9 months and I'd like to wear my normal pants (not my "big" pants for the few months after delivery)!! I'm not one of those girls that has there baby and then by 4-8 weeks fit back into my regular pants, it would be nice but it doesn't happen. And I'm sure those girls have no idea what I'm dealing with anyway! After Ashlyn I was able to get the baby weight off but it took 4-5 months to be back to myself but the second baby was another story even though I gained the exact same amount of weight and started a few pounds lighter. So it brings me to my current place... I have 3 more pounds to lose before I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight, and of course my body looks a little different than it did back then but it's kinda close. In 2.5 weeks I've lost just under 12 pounds and it's been wonderful, I couldn't ask for more! Wish me luck with my last week and hopefully I'll lose at least 3 more but I'd really like 5 more, oh and I'm back in my old pants - yay! (if you want any info on the diet I'm on, check out my brothers website - he's a Dr.)

*In other news, my parents are out visiting my sister and in her family in NC and I really wish I could have gone - I don't get to see her family but once a year and I miss them dearly! The kids are doing well, Ashlyn has been doing the terrible two's thing and Weston is as fast at lightning when he army crawls! Our garden is growing and I'll do an updated post as soon as we figure out what bug is eating it. I'm thinking grasshoppers.

Congrats! I bet you feel great! :) So how much is this diet??....and by reading about it, I'm sure I can't do it while nursing, right?
Good for you Andrea! I am also one of those girls who has to work really hard to lose baby weight. And so far the fourth has been the hardest! Wish me luck...
Way to go! It's hard dieting, I can't ever do it well. We just try to eat healthy all around. I still have more baby weight to lose, too.
