I think I've been losing more because I'm going crazy on produce. It's like, I've rediscovered vegetables. And then last night I read an article linking fiber to weight loss. I've been eating a couple raw carrots per day, also steamed with sugar snap peas, mushrooms and heirloom tomato salad with the balsamic dressing and a pinch of parmesean. I think it's tempting to steamroll (pun intended) right over the veggie odds and ends you're supposed to eat with the plan because it does take planning and shopping...but it's so important. I just discovered swiss chard, and sauteed for 5 minutes with garlic it is amazing! My husband is also eagerly shoveling in all the veggies so he's getting healthier too. I think the secret is to spend a little more for the good stuff -- organic, grown close and in season.

I gained a lot when I was pregnnt as well. & my Dr. would tsk, tsk over it, which just meant I'd go home and console myself with some Ben & Jerry's! LOL. You're doing great! If you still have your pre-pregnancy clothes, pick out one thing that you'd really like to get back into and hang it in the front of your closet, or right on your door! I've also stuck a picture of myself from before the pregnancy and stuck it on my fridge! It's a great reminder!
