SM - I know. It's discouraging. Definitely more pics to come!

Holly - I am really excited about it. :)

Ginger - I'll give that a shot. Basically a healthy tostada?

MM - thanks! I'll try it ...

Mandy - Oh god. But maybe it does? Ava IS the cutest name ever ...

Tilte - I think I know that, but it makes me too sad to acknowledge it.

Wildology - I managed to keep weight off for a long time before packing it back on. Emotional eating, blah blah. But I felt hungry EVERY DAY when I was thin. Like all day every day. Maybe I was doing it wrong.

If only I had the stamina to write a book!

...and while I agree with the biology of the article, I did start to feel "comfortable" eating less after about 4 months of eating clean. Of course that was quite awhile ago:) Hope to get there again some day.

Mexican food that's diet appropriate? As a 1/2 Mexican person, I can tell you with all certainty: It doesn't exist.

Also, I'm about two minutes away from eating a block of Cheddar as my dinner. So what do I know about diets.

Maybe that starvation feeling becomes the new normal? I can't believe I just wrote that sentence.

You will be fantastic with Ava! Call if you start freaking or want advice. No. 1 tip? Walks. Freaky baby? Bundle em up in the stroller and go outside. Babies are like "Oooh! Bright colors! Ooh! Different sounds! Shiny!" And then they fall asleep.

Ok, here are my secrets to "diet" mexican food:

Chicken breasts w/TONS of green chile, very limited cheese, lots of salsa, lots of cumin, and baked corn tortillas. If we do that, I can have a diet mexican meal that's under 500 calories. It's not Taco Bell, but it's not bad.

And YAY to watching your niece! You'll do great with her, I know!
