How I lose my pregnancy weight

And after that, it went downhill until now. I breastfed and take care of my son exclusively. It plays an important role too. Breastfeeding need a lot of calories. It burns fat equally with run in a treadmill. I'm serious. After nursing I always feel starving. My meal portion now is much much bigger than my portion prior to breastfeeding.

But there were times when I litterally dressed up without special occasion. Because I missed my old self. I was stressed out. Let's say I eat stress for breakfast. Sometimes I gazed through old photos with Mr.D. I hardly got time for him nowadays. There were nights where I went straight to sleep without kissed him goodnight. I was so tired my bones hurt.  Vale had his tantrums ...
