I am so thankful for this past year, and yet am determined NEVER to repeat it. It has been seven months since I last posted, and a ton has happened. I have come even further out of my Post Partum Depression. I am still unclear as to whether or not I am completely better or not. Every month I seem to feel just a tad bit better.
In any case, I have not only worked on my mental status, I have worked on my physical side as well. Once my brain was a little less foggy, I was able to devote some of the extra little brain cells to eating better. In August, I began eating completely different. It has now been 4 and 1/2 months and I have lost 52 pounds. If that doesn't help someone feel better, I don't know what would.
The one area I really need to put some focus into right now is parenting. My theory is that because I was taking care of myself, which I NEEDED to do, my parenting took the way back seat. Now, I have whiny littles, scary loud middles, and snippy olders. SO, the balance needs to come back. AND the Holidays need to be over. As much as I am looking forward to celebrating the New Year, I am more ready to get on with routine. This really is miraculous when you consider that I am the Queen of flying by the seat of my pants!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
