A few things abut pregnancy and motherhood surprised me...
1) How could a baby who was born weighing just 7lb 15oz result in me gaining four (yes 4!!!) stone in weight
2) everyone tells you oh you're not fat...you're pregnant. I was definitely both
3) when the baby's out, the weight sticks around.
4) there's literally no time for exercise like there used to be
5) walking miles with my pushchair just doesn't seem to be working
6) I'm spending a lot of time at home nowadays which means a lot of food and a lot of evening wine...

So far I have tried giving up biscuits for lent. This was fairly successful and I definitely shifted a few pounds. But I soon gave in. I've tried bokwa, and I enjoyed it but I'm too tired for it most Thursdays (poor excuse I know). I've tried to ride my two horses but quickly learned that's a luxury I can barley afford the time for nowadays.
