8/15/11 Katie's Healthy Eating Journal: Monday

Today marks the last week with my son before I go back to school.  I feel so sad; we've had a great summer together.  At least I get summers and holidays with my child.  I know some are not as lucky.  

I get nervous about getting in as much physical activity as I did all summer.  Once school hits I want to spend every waking moment with my son.  But, I still have riding lessons until the end of October and I'm going to make a goal of walking at least two to three times a week.

 I'm STILL not back into my regular clothes and sometimes it gets me frustrated.  I had many "phases" of sizes after giving birth and am now comfortably at a 5/6 but can wear some of my 3/4's (a size really shouldn't matter and I need to be more grateful that I've found a program that works for me).  See, I'm trying a little positive self talk?  :)  I am into some of my shorts and at least I'm in my jeans that I wore once I lost all the weight; they just used to be bigger on me.

 I think I've got to stop being so hard on myself and quit worrying about fitting into all my old clothes.  I'm almost there and I need to be happy with almost.  I'm just around the corner from my goal weight which is what I was pre-pregnancy while on all the injections.  I should've been more realistic.  My body was never going to snap back to a smaller size.  It's always taken a lot of hard work.  This is not going to stop me from having more babies.  I'm working hard and losing weight every week.  I can do it again!
