I just feel like venting right now. I've tried really really hard to be Ms. positive about my weight loss but today I just want to cry :( I went on Monday to the mall to get a pair of work pants because I had an awesome coupon to New York and Company and they were having a sale for buy one get one free on all their pants! So because my entire closet is size 4 and I have to suck it in and pretty much not move an inch to wear them and the work pants I bought post prego are a size 10 and falling off, and I have lost some weight recently I think surely I'm a size 6 by now! UM definitely not :( I'm an 8. I can put on a size 6 but then I'm walking around uncomfortable all day because they are snug around my tummy. I like my clothes to be a little on the loose side. I want to slip into my clothes, not struggle into them. So I bought one pair of work pants and got a pair of work out pants for free! I got the workout pants to motivate myself to keep working out.
I hate this feeling. I hate not being able to wear my clothes. I hate feeling big. I hate that it's taking so damn long to lose it. I hate that I sit on my butt all day at work. I hate that I'm eating extremely healthy and not eating junk food, or sweets (which everyone knows I have a major sweet tooth) and no soda and STILL it's really hard to slim down. WTH?!?! And I DON"T want to hear oh you had a baby your body is different now.... WHATEVER. Do you know how many of my friends had babies and are back down if not smaller than before?! I try very hard not to be negative but this is starting to get ridiculous. I hate it
Trust me Jessi I know it sucks but as long as you are doing it the right way it stays off longer. My youngest was born 12/18/2008 so its been over a year and maybe like a month ago I was finally able to fit into a size 4 again and I couldnt even do that after my 1st one, it took the 2nd one to get back down to that size. One thing I hope you look at is the fact that you are working, taking care of Caden and being a wife too....most women I know that are smaller than before they got pregnant or are back down to their pre-preggo size are more than likely stay at home moms. I know its not all stay at home moms but a good majority. So just remember you are doing it the right way and it will come off just in time and I know it sucks to hear that but it is true.
