I have just the thing to change your life!
I used to live to eat and now I eat to live! I'm not saying I don't enjoy a treat here and there, but now I know how to say NO to that extra cookie or how much is too much.

Does it still count as baby weight when the baby is 5?
Ugh! I have been at it for a month and have lost weight...but I still look like I am pregnant. Anyone else have this weird thing where a bunch of fat cells seem to grow underneath your c section scar? It's driving me nuts! Anyway, new friends are welcome.
