Funny Tees and Weight Loss

E Commerce April 28th, 2010

A friend of mine - Dana - gave me one of the most hilarious birthday presents I’ve ever received - a great find from a t shirts website that read: DEAR LORD IF YOU CANT MAKE ME SKINNY PLEASE MAKE ALL MY FRIENDS FAT. 

Losing weight after giving birth the second time around is not at all easy.  I just gave birth a couple of months ago and I’m still adjusting to the new baby.  Taking care of two kids below three years old is no joke.  I’m up most of the night because I’m breastfeeding and, during the day, I take care of the eldest who goes to school for two hours.   So instead of going to the gym or doing my usual yoga exercise, I spend my little free time catching up on sleep. 

Aside from the kids, I have to take care of the house.  I’m an obsessive compulsive so I cannot live in a cluttered environment.  My mother told me that it’s impossible to keep the house tidy especially with a toddler but I still try to keep everything in order.  It’s insanity that keeps me sane.  Housework allows me to move my muscles but it’s not enough for me to go back to my pre-pregnancy weight.

Dana’s gift was so timely.  It gave me the laugh that I needed when I was so stressed.  I’m thinking of paying it forward.  I’m thinking of buying funny t shirts to cheer up friends.
