life after pregnancy

I had an amazing pregnancy. I loved my pregnant belly, didn't have bad morning sickness, and didn't have too many complications. But... I did gain 47 pounds. I really don't know how. I mean, 100 donuts can't make you gain that much, right?!


I lost 25 of them within 3 weeks of Ayla being born. The other 22 are still stuck... on me. I tried to get rid of them but i think they're too comfy on my stomach and thighs. Don't get me wrong, i would keep them there because my daughter is so worth it! But, i plan to be pregnant again fairly soon and need to lose this weight so the next baby will have room to grow.


But it's not just about the weight. It's about eating healthy for my body. Our bodies weren't made to have all these processed, sugary, salty, fatty foods in them. Yes i know, they taste pretty good. But i'm starting to feel like my life revolves around all these foods.


I hate it! I am not going to let food control me anymore!


I am leaning on God during this process. This is something that i have been struggling with for a while and i can't seem to do it on my own. I know that He is bigger than me. He knows what i want for my body, my lifestyle, my daughter. He is in control.
