You know I could be a size smaller if I quit drinking my calories-i.e. drink water instead of sweet tea and coffee, and diet instead of regular coke. I just can't stomach artificial sweeteners...Do I want to try to get down to my pre-pregnancy size? Would it be smart to do that before having more children? When (God willing) we have another child, I am going to have to take night showers. I just love a good morning shower, but I don't see how that will be possible. I should just be thankful we have enough water to take a shower and for the invention of indoor plumbing...

I feel ya on the drinks...why can't we yearn for water rather than sugar? I just can not give it up either.
I take 98% of my showers at night. I actually do most everything at night when the boys are in bed (get groceries, read my magazines, read a good book, finish up laundry, paint) or else I'd go literally insane.
Thanks for the comment Whitney! It sure is a small world after all!
Once you get used to drinking diet rather than regular coke, you stop noticing it. Also, I got this giant sippy-like Rubbermaid bottle at Kroger and keep it constantly filled with water--thus encouraging and making me drink more water. Its all about habit:)
All of my posts feel random! I too, take all of my showers at night and you do eventually get used to the diet-sweetner flavor.
I'll second you for the award though!
here's the thing though, y'all.
life basically is a series of random crap..the key is to celebrate it!! haha! am i right or am i right?
anyhoo, i like how you be celebratin' the random shizz, girl.
i am all about my water. but it takes discipline and consistency. i pretty much gave up diet coke alltogether and drink about 80-100 oz of H2-Freaking-O everyday. really helps flush the ole system out. and now i actually crave water..that and some glittah. :)
Amanda and Tara-I've tried drinking Diet Coke soooo many times in my life that its useless at this point. Each sip it makes me more thirsty than the last and so I end up reaching for something else to quench my thirst.
Katie-so you're telling me the best way to go is to quit cold turkey? Hummm....Lent is coming up soon.
I'm thinkin' that I should have named this post SNL 'cause no one caught on to my "Deep Thoughts" reference.
um, no, i caught it, girl. :)
I read that it takes two years for your body to resume as close it it can get to your pre-pregnancy size. That was certainly the case for me. Right about when Patrick turned two, I started looking like me again, althoigh I hadn't done anything different. Then, of course, I got preggers with Ben and it all went to hell in a handbasket!
I don't know...drink what you want!!!! I also HATE diet coke. I like milk.
Also, buy a ceramic hair straightener and night showers won't seem so bad! ;)
gin and juice. yep, i think you need to drink more gin and juice in '07! Holla!
Becky-I actually have a really good ceramic hair straightener (a Chi) but its on loan to my sister 'cause last March I got my hair permanently straightenend and it has been the best thing I've ever done for myself!
Girl your sistah wears her hair in curls, which I noticed on the last post, so you need to be sendin' that Chi ovah here!
You gotta give me the 411 on the permanent straightening, Andrea. Does it still give it a shiny, healthy look like a flat-iron does? My hair is getting dried out from using one and since I'm a SAHM that isn't even that much. (Joe really adores the housewife, rolled out of bed look the majority of the time anyway..haha.)
Seriously, is there lots of volume? Any frizz?
Becky-I know, I know. I think I need to be askin' for that back.
Amanda-no frizz, volume comes back once your hair grows out a little at the root (which takes no time at all since there is no need to dry your hair-in the summer at least)Most people usually have to get it done once a year (due to regrowth) but mine has lasted very well and I will be able to go over a year!
Oh and as far as shiny and healthy-yes but you really have to trust your stylist (which I do...she is awesome) and her peferred method of straightening (there are a few of them out there).
okay- so like i get the shaft now? you be respondin' to everyone else and then when i tell you to drink gin and juice i get nada? ahhh, snap! he! :)
No Shaft Katie-just no clever response!
