Hooray for breastfeeding!!!

I weighed myself today and I am now 9 pounds LESS than what I was when I was 8 weeks pregnant. As I was going through my closet to purge stuff for the free for all this weekend I found some pants that I haven't been able to fit into since before I was pregnant with Trevor. I started putting them in the bag thinking I'd never fit into them. I decided what the hell I might as well see if I could even get them over my hips. Oh my goodness! They fit!!!! I never in a million years thought I would be able to get my rear in a pair of size 8 jeans. I'm so happy! Granted they are probably a big size 8 but the tag says they're and an 8 so that works for me! I didn't have to even squeeze into them. They are quite comfy!

I had another pair to try, my favorite Levi's from many days past. Alas they are a 7 and looked ~alot~ smaller than the prior pair but I thought what the hay! LOL, I couldn't even get my chunky thigh into them. I'm sure they will never ever fit even if I lose another 20 pounds. If I ever could get my thighs into them I'm sure they wouldn't fit over my hips. Pregnancy does wonders for the girlish figure!

My goal would be to lose another 15 pounds over the next few months but somehow I don't think I'm going to get there without exercising. Now if I could only find the time to exercise! Does chasing a toddler count as an aerobic workout? And as my friend Gretchen tells me... I need to lay of the oreos or I'll gain it all back. I ate a whole bag of oreos one day at work. Oops!
