Hi everyone,
I am a mother of two little ones who is still trying to lose the baby weight ,ugh!! My oldest was 3 in October and my youngest will be 2 this month...so it is about time I get rid of the last of my baby weight. Can't use the "I just had a baby excuse anymore, haha". So, I am trying to lose about 20 pounds and do it in a healthy way so that I can keep it off. But, I know it will be slightly difficult b/c I am a total chocoholic, so anyone with tips on how to lose weight and still have your chocolate send them my way!! :-)
Oh I love my chocolate too. I say buy a chocolate bar - my daughter just bought me one about a week ago. Yes I still have some left. She bought me a dark chocolate bar 61% cacao that was organic. Can't be too bad for me. The package states 1/3 of the bar is the serving size at 177 calories. I just eat 1 to 2 small squares that I break off. I know that amount is less than the serving size so I feel good about not taking in 177 calories - I still get my chocolate fix and I'm not feeling guilty over it. I keep it in the refrigerator kind of hidden - sometimes I forget it's even in there, but when I remember, I'm happy. So I say indulge - just a bit - maybe not everyday, but don't deprive yourself. You'll only be miserable and who wants that. Maybe take your children for a 1/2 hour walk around the block. Then you have just justified it. Good Luck!!!!
