Things have not been good on this front. I’ve been sick with some throat something or another for a week and a half, and it’s thrown me off my Couch to 5 K regimen. I’ve also been eating everything under the sun and my weight has started to creep up a bit from the post-baby low I reached a few weeks ago. So, it’s time to reign myself in and give myself a kick in the pants. I’m going to try and check in on this goal daily or close to it to keep myself accountable. I’d like to try and add in a better habit for myself on most days so today will be Day One.

Day One: Water! I’ve been slacking on my water drinking which is a big no-no while nursing. I want to make sure I get in at least eight glasses a day. Anything that can help my milk supply is a good thing and something I should be eager to do. I’ve also always heard that you can misinterpret thirst as hunger so maybe if I’m staying well-hydrated throughout the day I won’t feel so famished.
