carbivore

i've recently started a low-carb diet. ok, i started on sunday. i thought this would be fairly easy to stick to since my favorite food is cheese! however, it is proving to be more difficult than i realized. i honestly don't see how this diet works. i mean, i'm eating a TON more fat than i normally do, so how in the world can i lose weight? anyway, i'm going to try and stick to it for at least 2 weeks. it's so hard, though. you don't realize how many carbs are in everything! anyway, i'm sick of all my clothes not fitting, so i'm trying an "easier" way of losing weight rather than starving myself (which is impossible - if i hear the world "pizza" then i HAVE to have it).

and another thing - all these blogs i read on here...the girls who have kids lose the baby weight SO fast..it's amazing. i want to know your secret! i know i haven't had a baby, but it seems like it would be harder for someone who just gave birth to lose weight rather than someone who hasn't.

ok...i will stop dwelling....

sorry i don't really have anything interesting to write about...i don't really like writing about my everyday life for some reason. maybe it's too personal? i don't know - haven't figured out my reasoning yet.

i would kill for a bagel right now.

hi mary beth! you make me smile. i always get excited to read your thoughts when i see you have updated on my google reader.
so, i may or may not fall in the category of girls who just had a baby and lose the weight quickly this go around (the verdict is still out!) but i will say i think nursing has a lot to do with it. i'm pretty convinced that was how i lost every ounce of the (almost 50 lbs!) i put on with adelaide. there you have it for what it's worth.
ps- you now have me totally wanting a bagel!

You are so funny! It is most definetly the breastfeeding. I swear I lost 30 of my 40 pounds within the first week and a half and did nothing but eat because Remi was taking so much from me.

And, Little's pearls are a doggie pearl necklace-- not a collar. I got them in a little boutique in Cookeville a couple of years ago. You should get one for Kiwi :)
