Muddling Through Motherhood

Just a quick note to mention that I’ve manged to lose 8lbs in 3 weeks on weightwatchers. It has worked for me before but I’ve always lost interest, however more than half a stone in 3 weeks, and the idea that I’ll soon be breaking a stone barrier that I haven’t seen in more than 10 years is a very nice one.

I’ve got the fun challenge of my birthday coming up – and I have no intention of being too well behaved for that – but I have been sticking to this, and really feel like this time I can get down to the weight David and I agreed on in order for me to be nice and healthy before trying for another baby.

Another, less fun, challenge is that of getting to the gym. I never feel like going in the evenings, and mornings are hard when Rowan hasn’t been sleeping (although he seems to be back to normal with one feed a night the last few nights). I’m hoping that if I feel more rested I can get my arse out of bed a bit quicker and rush off nice and early. We’ll see.

In the meantime, at least Rowan keeps me active and walking.
