I made a salad consisted of cucumber, baby spinach, red onion, garlic, salt, citrus & pepper spice, and olive oil. Very poor salad, would have added tomato, avocado or something else had it been available at home. Not complaining, this was better from weight loss point of view anyhow. With the salad, or after finishing the salad in the current time while I am creating this blog and posting the first post I am drinking a (very) large cup of green tea with honey.


I should add my reason for weight loss. Before the pregnancy my body was pretty average in sense of fat mass although I had a bit of tummy. I wasn't overweight at all and neither very thin. I wasn't in the best of shape and neither unattractive shape. I'm sorry if anyone is offended by that, it's the best way I know how to explain my past condition. So, I gained a lot during my pregnancy, more than what is considered to be normal. I lost about 40% after the birth but soon gained it all back and then some. Let's just say I handled certain things by eating instead of solving them.


The summer of 2010 I did a good job exercising and keeping the calories low. I used to drink a lot, a lot, of water which held the munchies and over eating in check. I started to jog and took extremely long walks with the stroller. With extremely I mean up to 5 hours. So I really started to see results. Unfortunately I wasn't able to maintain the new life style I had created, this due much traveling. I got sidetracked and ended up gaining everything I had lost and more.


This is my first weight loss blog, first time weight loss blogging. Wishing it shall be helpful in reaching my goal. I love everything to do with health, just losing the extra weight hasn't been successful. Yet. I have so much to lose by not losing the weight. I want to lose weight for a better life with my son.
