9 Weeks Postpartum

I started my period for the first time since getting pregnant with Jax. I forgot how bad it sucks having one. I am glad to get back on a somewhat regular cycle now. I have been trying really hard the last 3 weeks on trying to loose weight. I have been eating fresh healthy foods and only eating 1,000 calories a day. I got weighed this week and I have lost 7 pounds since starting this. I am now down to 140. I am hoping to keep this up until I can loose the rest of my weight. I am really hoping to be down to 125 by my 30th birthday. I am supposed to lose 1 1/2 to 2 pounds a week by only eating a thousand calories a day. I am still going to have to do some sort of toning and exercising to get rid of the extra flab. I just can't believe how hard it has been to lose the weight this time. I need to remember this the next time that I get pregnant and really try to watch what I eat closer so I don't gain so much. I also wish I would have started this diet right after I had Jax because I would have been closer to losing the weight. It is amazing how many calories are in some foods. I had no idea how much I was consuming until I started counting calories. It was so hard the first week and even some the second week, but the more that I do it the easier it gets. Hopefully I can stick with it until I reach my goal weight!
