I really hope someone has something more than "I like mayo" or "I hate bottled water" today.

LokiLahve · February 2014

We meet with a financial advisor on Monday to make the final determination on my becoming a sahm or not. I have a work conference in FL the following week (3 nights at the Ritz)...if the SAH answer is yes, I'm thinking about not telling work until AFTER the FL trip. I want to go to FL!!!

That's pretty disrespectful to your boss.... But I can't say that I wouldnt consider doing the same thing lol.

Well I'm not going to just peace out when we get back. I plan to give them plenty of notice & will stay on to train a replacement.
I just wonder if I told them before we go if they would then say I didn't need to go to the conference.

After eating crap during the superbowl, I totally fell off the WW wagon and ate an entire bag of cheese doodles. Last week I didn't lose any weight. This week, I'm down 3 lbs. Wtf? My FFFC is that I convinced DH that we only bought one bag of cheese doodles instead of two. He now things he's forgetting things. Yup, that's exactly what it is, DH. You're forgetting things. I have no regrets. My first AF is here, so I'm cool with it this one time.

Revez · February 2014

I don't think this is much better than "I like mayo", and I really, really didn't think this was going to happen. But despite the over use of "oh my" and the terrible writing, I really liked 50 shades. Maybe too much. We've been going at it like bunnies and pulled out our hand cuffs and blindfolds.

Maybe that belonged in tmi Tuesday. I don't know, it's early.

nnikki10 · February 2014

I go back all day during HDBD to see how many love it's dd gets. If I see you loved the one before her and after her and not her, I hate you for the day and won't love anything else you do that day. Because I'm passive aggressive like that. How could you not love all the babies??

BlondieBia21 · February 2014

I prefer sleeping in a bed by myself rather than DH in it with me.

TrueBeliever925 · February 2014

I accidently fell asleep while dinner was cooking in the oven last night.

LO wouldn't sleep in his crib, so I snuggled him and accidently fell asleep. The worst part is I had even gotten up to reset the timer for only 15 more minutes. The chicken was definitely done and crispy an hour later when I realized what the hell had happened.

Best part? DH ate all the chicken when he got home from work. He loved it.

MommyKristin88 · February 2014

I get extremely annoyed when I hear SAHM say their baby didn't STTN, so they can't wait to be able to take a nap later. I always want to reply, "Good for you, but some of us don't have the luxury of taking a nap later. I still have to go to work at the same time, stay awake, and perform my job, whether the baby STTN or not. Stop your whining."

The complaints about the baby waking up don't bother me, it's the complaints followed by the nap comment. Maybe I'm just jealous. I want a nap, too :-(

I feel you during the work week. Normally I fall asleep snuggling him on the couch around 8pm. On the weekends we nap from 11 to 1 normally. It's freaking amazing. IDAGF if I get anything done. I catch up on amazing sleep and snuggle my amazing little boy in one whack.

Jlhkandme830 · February 2014

Don't really know if this is FFFC worthy, but it's all I've got this early.. DS got up for his normal MOTN feeding (4am-ish) and decided to spit up the entire contents of what he just ate (EBF) all over himself and the floor. I came back out from changing him and the dog was licking up the spit up off the floor. I let him finish.

More of an FFFC, I had to change my email, therefore changed my username.. I'm Lorjo2022.

I lost all the baby weight by 4 months. I weight less now than I did when I got pregnant. My only weight loss "activity" has been breastfeeding. I'm one lucky bitch.

If it makes you feel better, whenever this kid starts weening I'm probably going to balloon up because of it. I've been eating like crap. (says the half eaten box of oreo's under my desk purchased less than 24 hours ago).

I'm 5 pounds shy of being back to my prebirth weight.. And I've only found time to workout twice. But like you said, after EBF is over, it's probably going to be hell!

I lost all mine before that even lol.

BUT, my FFFC is that I sometimes wish I didn't so I could talk about the gym and WW with y'all :P

CaliforniaDream87 · February 2014

While I'm in the "in between" sizes (I'm down to my pre preg weight but I'm trying to lose another 20lbs.) I'm rocking a "body magic" slimmer. Everyone keeps saying "wow, you look so great and toned!".

I say "oh, thanks. I've been working my ass off to lose this weight". They don't need to know about what I have underneath my clothes. Today, I'm really "feeling myself" and I'm wearing a super fitted dress. I fully intend to gloat about how "toned" I look.

#sorryNOTsorry.

I LOVE Body Magic. I have one, too, and I rock the hell out of it for the same reason. Only my boyfriend knows how I really look, and he still thinks I'm beautiful, so that's all that matters!

Team Body Magic!!!

Exactly why I only mentioned it in FFFC.

Nothing personal.

WildRumpus · February 2014

There have been times lately that I've contemplated rehoming the dog. He's a huge AW and when he doesn't get it, he reacts by peeing inside (marking things, I've had him checked to be sure there's nothing physically wrong) and chewing Ezra's stuff. He's just been awful lately. But we won't actually do it because he's still part of the family, he's been rehomed once before, and because I don't want the backlash of "have a baby, forget the pets" And yes, before I get flamed six ways til Sunday, we've talked to the vet and a trainer

danal613 · February 2014

I thought with me EBF I would lose weight quickly, but nope!!! I workout and eat healthy and still not weight loss.

My fffc is I'm so over how huge my boobs are (36dd, I used to be 32b) I'm excited to start introducing cows milk! Only about 4 more months to go!!!

ludali · February 2014

@MitsB707 not sure if you've done WW before, but I always found that if I ate bad, the gain wasn't in the immediate next weigh-in but the one after that. Maybe you'll be different, but wanted to give a head's up!!

Didn't take it personal, I just know that it's a bitch of a topic. Nothing pleasant about it, felt like a bitch just writing it.

You're not a bitch! Just an FYI if I lost all of my baby weight that quick I would be BRAGGING about it all the damn time. I'm jealous @theusualmischeif. Flaunt that shit!!

Cosmic+Love · February 2014

If I'm feeling self confident about my appearance, I'm less likely to take shit from anyone at work.

Feeling fabulous on this Friday, so nobody get in my way!

I'm with you. I'm 4lbs under my pre-preg weight and it's all been because of pumping. I'm eating an entire box of cheez-its as I write this.

We are in the same boat. We would never actually get rid of our dogs (I've had them since they were both 8 weeks old, they are 8 and 9 yo now) but we do threaten them by telling them we are going to turn them into lamp shades if they keep peeing in the house.

Same. My arms have never been this toned. I tried so hard to loose the flabby arms pre wedding but nothing worked. Apparently all I had to do was EBF and rock a heavy baby in my arms for 6 months.

I should try this with my boys. The pee in the house is getting out of control!

So you're introducing milk to an EBF baby before the recommended one year (minimum!) because you don't like the size of your boobs? Alright then.

I'd take the big boobs if I could have EBF versus having to FF, so I get that part. But isn't she suggesting she would start milk around a year anyway? with "only about 4 more months to go"?

EDIT: JC... I can't do math. I was totally thinking 4 month + 6 months = 1 year. I'm a fucking moron today. Commence flames!

You might want to hold off on cow's milk for at least 6 more months.

Not until about 9-10 months. I will be adding an ounce or so to his breast milk. I also did this with my now 12 y/o but instead of breast milk I did formula.

BlondieBia21 · February 2014

On the weight-loss topic, I've lost 13 since starting WW Jan 12. I have 3 lbs to go until I'm under pre-preg weight, but would like to lose another 20 after I get there. I can feel my un-healthy mindset popping in. I have trouble being "proud of myself" and not telling myself that that's not good enough. In the past when I've dieted, I've gotten to this point and I start to lose weight in un-healthy ways, I don't want that to happen again. I don't know how to balance it.

PS- I've actually been eating healthy and earning my points that way instead of just eating junk and figuring out how much of it I can eat to get my points. Once have I ate fast food since starting. I'm using WW to help me learn portion sizes and I'm a visual learner so it helps me to know that I could eat all the veggies I want for 0 pts, compared to 15 chips for 4 points. It's made me choose healthier snacks and meals.

Yeah im with wildrumpus. Dont give your ten month old cows milk. Wait till a year old or later.

If her baby was born in August, he/she is about 6 months old. 6+4 = 10 months old, not 1 year.

Thanks! I actually did WW prior to our bfp, but usually I would see it two days later. I wonder if it was also from being bloated last week due to af coming and now not so bloated. Eh, I'm prepared either way. Tomorrow is my actual weigh-in (and the cheese doodle debacle was on Monday).

MinnesotaMomma91 · February 2014

My confession. Ive been ignoring texts from bd for the last week. A couple weeks ago we got into a fight because he was sending me inappropriate messages and i told him i wasnt talking to him unless it had to do with ds.

He hasnt asked about ds, all these texts are just asking if ive removed the stick from my ass yet. So yeah. Im ignoring him.

TrueBeliever925 · February 2014

@mommykristin88. Thanks! I edited my comment to reflect my thought process. I'm totally out of it today. Apparently a year, in my book, is 10 months.

I'm not even kidding, I lost all mine a week after having LO. Not that it matters, I had 70 to lose before I even got pregnant. Being back to prepregnancy weight just means I back to being fat without a good reason.

danal613 · February 2014

...and I'm not opposed to waiting. I'm not stopping for any personal appearance issues, just like I didn't decide ebf in hopes to be thinner that I was before I conceived. With my older DS you did things differently; started cereal and solids a lot earlier than you do now. I make these decisions with our pediatrician and wouldn't do anything to harm my children.
