old habits (anorexia)
I used to be amazing at losing the baby weight quickly. I could go from a size 16 pant all the way down to a 10 in a couple of months. After one week of dieting this time and my weight barely budging, I was wondering what in the heck was going on! This time I'm exercising daily (which I never did before), still going under…
