Who knew having babies changes your body?

Well , just about everyone ! But, what you don't know is exactly how much it changes your body until you personally go through it. I never gained a ton of weight with Aubrey throughout my pregnancy. From beginning to end I had gained about 20-25 lbs. Which is good because I was overweight to begin with. I am back at my pre-baby weight and have been since probably the third week after having her. The thing is though , I have like no muscle tone in my stomach ! I never thought I had muscle tone in the first place , in hind sight I definitely did! So, I whipped put my Yoga DVD the other day and gave it a go. It was tough, but I felt so much better after doing it! I was sore in all the right places, and relieved in all the right places :) So during the days when I am home with Aubs ( which is pretty much every day ) I am making it my goal to do some form of exercise. I definitely have a 20-30 minute window when I can get it done with no problem.
I also need to work on my eating habits again.....uuuhhhggggg. I have always struggled with food problems. Whether it was eating too little in high school (I won't get too in to that) or eating too much when I am stressed out now. I have food issues........ My sweet tooth has been out of control ! Or my self control has been out of control :) I have always loved sweets , I just need to practice a lot of self control. Being in the house the majority of the day has killed it. But, no more excuses! I am whipping my ass back into to shape and reaping the benefits . Who knows, maybe I will even start posting some pictures?
