Musings

Life's moved on a bit in the last month. I've been offered a job as a library assistant, something I've always wanted to do. My previous employers have also asked me to do a little bit of work so I'm going to be a busy girl!

I'm in a good place food-wise. I'm eating quite intuitively, not really craving sweet stuff, I've just been 'forgetting' to buy chocolate in the same way I eventually 'forgot' to buy liquorice torpedoes (except for occasionally). I'm just not as bothered by it as I was. I'm less fussed about cake too.

I've accidentally lost a bit of weight again, I'm a stone less than I was when I got pregnant. I could tell I'd lost a little weight as my trousers have got loose and wondered what the numbers were so I checked this morning.

The weird thing is I'm not that excited about it. It's only a number and I'm just curious about what the number is doing, it doesn't define me. I'm pleased obviously as my weight is enough that I could potentially have health problems but not joyous.

My weight seems to have oscillated up and down over the past 9 months since Rosie was born. Hopefully it'll start to settle down and maybe even go a bit lower. I'm still expressing, but not as much and am therefore less hungry. I'm assuming this has something to do with the accidental weightloss. Perhaps the other contributing factor is that I'm trying to eat more fruit for Rosie's sake as we're not a big fruit eating family. I don't really know!
