So I've been unable to stop eating lately. Its partly because food tastes so good to me after 9 months of hating everything I put in my mouth; partly because I'm breastfeeding and exercising again and sad but true, it's something to do. I hate the word 'skinny'. I hate that people think that is the ideal and even equate that to healthy. Certainly being over weight isn't healthy either but just because someone is skinny does not mean they are healthy.
I know I need to get some self control over my eating. I'm actually pretty proud of my exercise level considering it's only been a few months since I had baby and major abdominal surgery and a horrific pregnancy. But eating....I am addicted to sugar and food ahh!
I would like to loose 30 pounds but would be super excited about 20. I don't want to be skinny but I want to look fit. I want to fit cute in a size 6. I want to be active and have super amounts of energy. I want to be flexible and strong. I want to keep up with my kids to hike and run and bike and not feel tired until the end of the day when my body falls in bed exhausted from an active day.
