I am so sorry I've been MIA. Truth be told, while I am breastfeeding I am trying not to pig out but failing miserably and trying to pretend Skinny Cow doesn't exist. Or at least, trying to pretend I AM one.
About a month ago (like THAT counts) my post-baby weight was 65kg. Proving what I said - pregnancy agrees with me. That would leave only 5kg to my goal weight. Remember I started at 69ish, okay 70ish, okay once I got pregnant I was 71ish and headed on up to the high point which was 74.4.
And I swear I started feeling thinner except for the Growing Joseph Inside - losing fat from my upper body and possibly elsewhere, not that you'd notice with the Growing Joseph Inside.
Then the Growing Joseph Inside became the Growing Joseph Outside and once the metaphorical dust had settled, I found I was in fact 65ish.
Wow.
Now here's my problem. Breastfeeding makes me RAVENOUS and it doesn't take the weight off like they say. They lie.
Watch me head on up, unable to curb my desire to eat a double-sized portion of food each meal of the day.
Depressing. So depressing that I've been avoiding Skinny Cow, and so depressing I will backdate this post an hour so as not to bump Rhubarb's post from the top of the page because let's face it, she's putting in effort and getting huge results, and we all want to be encouraged by that! Go Rhubarb!

Hey - breastfeeding makes me ravelous too! (I should say MADE me, not makes). And 65 kg is my goal, so you are already where I wanna be. So there no work for you to do at all :)
Yep. Pretending Skinny Cow does not exist does not help. I am in fact not willing to step onto the scales due to some incredibly bad eating patterns for the last few months.
Sorry that the breastfeeding makes you ravenous, but well done on staying 65ish!
