That stuff we like to eat
Food!! Ahh! It's good for you but not too much of it and it has to be just the right stuff. Why do I like to eat it and so much of it! It's really weird going back to pre-pregnancy days, at least when it comes to eating. Mentally I still think I need to eat so much, when really I don't need to eat a whole lot at all, (I can tell by when I get full so quickly but still want to eat). I really enjoy food and eating it and am having a hard time cutting back on what I don't need much of. Cheese and butter...gosh, you know before I found out I was pregnant with Moses I rarely ate cheese and hardly ever ate butter, but once I conceived I craved cheese and gladly gave in! I have noticed that physically I've felt really blah lately and that's partly due to the fact that I haven't really cared too much about what I'm eating(chocolate too comes in there). I hate feeling full and bloated, so I'm praying that God would give me self control and help me to just eat healthy and not overeat. I am not worried about my weight at all, I just want to eat healthy and not feel blah. In the past I would do something like a juice fast and detox and start over, but I'm going to start slow, especially from what I've experienced in the past I don't know if I'd have the energy to keep up with the boys on a juice fast. So, I am just going to cut out cheese from my diet for awhile, and butter (except if it's needing for cooking or baking, unless I can substitute applesauce). And we'll see how that goes, it will be hard, oh how I love cheese. Maybe I'll just eat it once a week;)

Best of luck to you! My milk supply has dramatically decreased lately and I've had to start supplementing with some formula. But, he still likes to nurse, so I'm still working at it. But, I, too, have been having to cut out some of the more fattening foods (like butter). It's really hard to change eating habits, isn't it?
Oh, and about the car. We've owned it for a year and half and it's been to the shop only twice. Most of the things done on it were just routine stuff. I guess the cost of owning a car:-p
