I am going well today, and yesterday was a fairly good day too. I walked for an hour yeaterday, and today DH and I took the kids to the footy oval with a ball, boomerang and their bikes. I pushed DS2 in the pram on the grass for a while and also ran around like a crazy woman with the big kids. It was really lovely was to exercise and I need to do it more. The kids said two things that hit a chord with me today, DS1 said on the way hoem 'I really tired mummy' I said 'Ok we'll go home now' DS 'and watch tv and lay down like always' and then when we got home, I asked DD what her favourite part of today was and she said going to the park and then 'You ran around, we made you run and chase us! But I'm too fast 'cause you're fat'. I was letting them run faster and saying 'you're too fast, I'm tired!', but she was obviously convinced otherwise. Out of the mouths of babes comes truth. But, well...ouch, that really hurts. I know she's only little and doens't understand that much of it all, but it was a slap in the face.
Food wise, I'm going well, though I am struggling to actually have the 2000cal I'm supposed to for a BFing mumma. And I can't seem to eat enough protien either, which I know is important in weight loss to feel fuller and have more sustained energy. Can anyone give me some yummy protien things to eat?? Besides eggs. Not a huge fan of eggs. Unless it's in a recipe.
