268 pounds

The last time I went to the doctors that is what I weighed, I was it was an amount in English currency, but I am not that lucky. That is a lot, but not the most I have ever weighed, I was more when I had the 2nd. But after I had him I lost over twenty pounds in just a couple of weeks, so most of it was the baby. 

I know that is part of the reason I am having a hard time getting around. I find myself turning around three times, like a dog does before he lays down.  But I do this while I am trying to figure out how I am going to bend over to pick something up, or knee down to get something from under the couch.  I hate that about my couches, that they are open on the bottom and everything just pushed under.  Oh well.  It can be a lot of work just getting down low and then trying to get back up. I don't think my family understands how much easier it is for them just to pick it up, then to have me try. Like cleaning out the lower rack of the dish washer, or taking clothes out of the dryer, and forget about cleaning out the tub. The tub floor has become no man's land. I asked the 1st to clean it before thanksgiving, so that will be nice. He does a really good job. Over all he is a great kid, but he can be a handful at times.  The best was when he admitted on Saturday that he does things to push our buttons, just to see our reaction. What I think he doesn't get is that, hubs and I are very good at that as well.  He didn't invent this game, and with time he will grow tired of it, because we will always have a come back for him. 

I am more active now then I was when I had the 2nd, but that is because I stay home with the 2nd.  Having a toddler to chase around makes you move a lot more.  But I am also eating a whole lot of junk.  I just don't have the patience to cook something.  Grabbing something out of a bag, or nuking something is much easier.  I do have a lot of fruit on hand, but it just doesn't ever sound good. Like it seems to sweet, or something. I have been able to eat bananas this time.  Last time they gave me the worst kind of heart burn.  I can say with a bit of certainty that this baby will end up coming out bald.  My first was, I didn't have much heart burn with him either. The 2nd came out with a full head of hair, it wasn't a surprise.

I guess I need to find quick healthy foods, that don't seem to sweet.  Easy things to make and cook in the microwave.  I know they have them out there, I just don't spend much time in the freezer section when I shop. But I guess I will need to re think how I shop, and try to eat better. but that will start after this thursday. No way I am going to do a healthy turkey dinner.
