mommy weight

trying really hard not to feel discouraged. two weeks ago, i re-instituted a 15 min morning work out on the elliptical. i weighed myself this morning and found myself 3 pounds heavier. grrrr. did i mention i also walk up the 3 flights of stairs in the parking garage? and that i've also been trying to eat/snack less and get more veggies in? why did i re-institute this? because i'm so overweight that my pregnancy aches and pains have not dissipated. i still struggle with occasional sciatic pain and have a hard time walking, going up stairs, sometimes even getting off the couch. not only do those simple things now suck, the worse part is i can't keep up with nissa as well as i should. i was tempted to give up this morning, but stuck to it for no other reason than the elliptical time is a great morning wake up. i won't let this beat me, but man, is it tempting. gotta find new ways to work in exercise. changing my eating habits is tricky, given the constant nursing munchies, but i'm going to keep an eye on that too. i'm too young to have this much discomfort from being overweight.
