I have no need for apidexin when I am losing a pound a week. If I’m lucky, I’d be back to my pre-pregnancy weight by December. I have breastfeeding to thank for, I guess. I’m also refraining from eating anything dairy because we suspect that Meg’s tummy aches have something to do with them. That [...]

I’m Happy to Note

… that I lost a total of 28 lbs after giving birth. I’m now down to 136lbs without any effort at all. I’m sure the sleepless nights and the fact that I don’t have any appetite at all helped a lot. My post-pregnancy tummy is starting to look normal too, much to my delight! I [...]

I’ve been dieting for weeks now. Still, the baby weighs 7lbs as of last ultrasound. Not sure if she’s just huge or I’m doing something wrong. Must be all those slices of mango bravo that I ate for the past six months. But can you blame me? Just look at the photo that I snagged [...]

Indisposed

My extra weight is such a pain, literally. As if I don’t need enough rest after working the whole day, my back is aching so much it won’t let me get comfortable when it comes to sleeping. Tossing and turning won’t do any good. I’ve tried everything from propping up the pillows, sleeping on my [...]
