O Happy Day

In an effort to motivate myself away from fine tasty treats and back to the world of exercising and weight control, I tried on my old pre-pregnancy jeans. The last time I did this was a few weeks after Zoe was born. Big mistake. I wanted to cry as I realized I couldn't even button them. So sad. I decided I wouldn't rush to do that again. I'm home most of the time anyway, and Uche and Zoe don't seem to mind my sweats.

Today, however, I decided that I should try them on again, and that even if I couldn't button them, it would only help serve as a motivator to get back into shape! Well, I tried them on and was pleasantly surprised that they actually fit! I never thought buttoning a pair of jeans would be cause for such rejoicing, but alas, it is. YAY for breastfeeding and the ease of shedding those pounds! I still have much work to do to get myself back into shape, but it was encouraging nonetheless.
