Hello Everybody..
This is the first time for me joining a weight loss community in any way.. And I hope this will be a good support on my weight loss journey...
First I wanna introduce myself...

I'm Natalie, 19 and just had my babygirl Amelie Joy 2 weeks ago... With my pregnancy I gained 52 pounds. I am 5'2" tall (small) and weighed a 130lbs before pregnancy. The last day of my pregnancy I was a 182lbs. Now, 2 weeks later, I am a 163lbs. So I already lost 20lbs since giving birth.

I lost weight before, and I want to try the same way again. Eating small portions without cutting out chocolate or whatever I crave, so I dont end up eating a whole bag of chips or 10 muffins and donuts...
I want to try to get some exercise, with this I am a little concerned since I am busy with Amelie Joy.. Well, I am planning on going for a walk with her and such.. We'll see.

So. This is the day.

July 3, 2008.

Current Weight: 163lbs
Desired Weight: 125lbs

July 5, 2008. 6.10pm

As of today, I lost 1lbs since July 3, 2008.

I struggle with keeping my fingers from candy or sodas, but I'm fighting hard.
I got a good motivation today, as 2 people said today (independend from each other) that I look thinner than after giving birth. I mean, sure, everyone looses weight after pregnancy, but personally, it encourages me to loose more.

So what was positive in the last 2 days ...

- I ate small portions, with that, I ate less
- I 'moved' more.. went for a walk and such...
- Drank more
- More active.. Not so much TV, computer.. More playing with the baby, cleaning up, etc.
 
Yesterday (July 6, 2008)
was a baaad baad day.. I think I ate double of the fat that I am supposed to and pretty much no exercising but carrying my baby around...

Dang it. Im sitting on my 162 still..

My goal is to loose 2 pounds a week. 1 is already lost. 1 more to go within 3 1/2 days... It sounds stupid but Im afraid of not making the other pound.. Not because Im not meeting my goals but because its so discouraging to me...

I might not update every day, but that dosnt mean I gave up. Amelie Joy is keeping me busy... I'll post once in a while.. Like every couple days..
