LOSE 2 LBS IN 1 WEEK - MEAL PLAN #1

-

Okay, so we all know that the holidays help us to pack on the pounds. Everyone wants to enjoy that delicious food and we all say, "I'll get back to it after the new year!" I was one of those people. My baby is just shy of 6 months old and I put on a whopping 70 lbs!!! YES 70! I know its a lot. I'm not proud but I'm working to get it off. So I'm going to be completely honest with you all as you follow me on this journey. Why? Because, I hope by my integrity it will encourage you to be honest with yourself and those around you. You see, weight is just a number and we all have an idea of what it should be. Now my ideal weight is based off of how I feel (as in joints, breathing, sleeping, GI stress, etc.) not how I look. I'm not one to preach on body image. I'm currently at my heaviest after having my baby and I'm still okay with how I look! I'm not okay with the fact that my entire wardrobe doesn't fit or that my stomach is always on edge

If you have been following my blog you know my story. If not, here is the short version: At 17 weeks pregnant with my son, I was a pedestrian struck by a car. This lead to placental abruption and major hemorrhaging so I was forced to stay in the hospital for almost 3 months to keep me and my unborn baby safe. Needless to say, it was absolute hell. But I survived it with a smile on my face most of the time and in this post I'll explain how. Hopefully these tips and tools will help you as much as they did me. Read Some Books Thankfully we live in the era of e-everything. I downloaded a few e-books to read and I also had friends and family bring me books as I read the ones I had. If you have anyone bring you books, I recommend being very specific about the types of books you like to read. I had a few brought to me that were just paper weights because I'm not interested in certain types of reading. This tied up a decent amount of time and kept my mind wondering. It

Banana Chocolate Chip Lactation Pancakes!!!!

I like my pancakes in the morning and I searched high and low for a yummy delicious pancake recipe that was low on the glycemic index (I am trying to lose that post baby weight) and would also help with lactation. I wasn't having any issues but this definitely help secure a nice strong milk supply early on. They are super easy to make and down right delicious! BONUS: They are also gluten free!!! My hubby loves them and so does my 4 year old and they are also a great source of fiber and protein which many of us don't get enough of in our daily diets! Feel free to top them with fruit and whip cream or your syrup of choice. If you are trying to stay low on the glycemic index I recommend a good sugar free syrup. I prefer ..... if I'm using syrup or I just use .... which is more natural than table syrup anyway.
