Phat!

Ok so it was probably not a good idea for me to post a picture of me on my wedding day just three years ago.
"Oh, how skinny I was"!
Yes, I am feeling phat; I prefer to spell it with the PH - It looks and sounds so much better than FAT!
I know I had a baby ONLY 31/2 weeks ago but I feel so much phatter than I did after having Noah and I gained twice as much weight with Noah that with Silas.
"It takes 9 months to put the weight on it takes nine months to take it off", is what someone told me after having Noah - there is some truth to that a statement.
America is obsessed with weight and so I seem to be feeling the pressure to loose the weight. When I look back to my wedding picture I think
"oh what I would give to be that skinny again".
I do not so much care about what others may think of my weight, it is how I feel about myself. I am not comfortable with these extra pounds, physically comfortable not mentally comfortable.
So I ask myself; "am I going to do something about it or just sit on my phat ass and watch my yoga for weight loss tape while eating cookies:)
Starting Monday morning, yoga for weight loss will be playing on my TV, yoga mat out with me on it and the cookies are at the store not in my cabinet.
I know this will be good for me mentally and physically.

Eric, Silas and I on our anniversary - Noah would not cooperate for a picture
