Body image

Today, I measured my waist again, and it was not reassuring. My weight was down 70% of what I had gained for the pregnancy already a month ago. My waist today didn’t seem to be much, if at all, smaller than it was at that time.

So, I guess it is time for me to set up a true workout schedule with my husband. The chiropractor said the other day that I need to be getting back into it consistently, anyway, doing rigorous-esque activity again (aka true working out). And I’d like to be and to feel strong again. I miss that so much, it hurts to consider.

But I have to be careful to keep things balanced calorically. I can have my body shift its composition, but I can’t be in a caloric deficit. But I can and must exercise truly again. Which, I guess, means I’ll need to start eating even more food each day. Yikes.

God, guide me clearly always, please. Help us to be loving in our family in new and positive ways. Keep us safe and make us well, please. Thank you for our family and for our home. In your name, I pray. Amen.
