So I promised I'd chronicle my post pregnancy weight loss, and here I am... post babies!

I am of course coming at this from a different angle than my fellow bloggers on the site, but for those of you following who may be pregnant or newly delivered here's my appeal: BREASTFEED.

I gained 65lbs in about 6 months. Yep you guessed it: my pregnancy diet wasn't all blueberries and granola! It was more Burger King and Cheetos. God, I feel SO guilty about that now, sigh. But if I must say so, I look relatively good these days.

With the help of some of these delicious recipes posted by Licious, some strict portion control (Um, did I say Burger King?) and my second set of twins, aka "the girls," I'm kicking ass.

So two weeks ago I was 190lbs. About 9.5 lbs worth of baby, a whole lot of night sweats and two very sore breasts later, I'm at 160lbs and the belly is shrinking at quite a (painful) clip. (Yes, the breastfeeding causes ridiculous craps as the uterus sucks itself back in.)

So Mommies do yourself and those babies a favor and whip out the titties (if only for a while), it just might get you halfway there! Hell I'm actually burning 780 calories a day feeding these two... not bad, eh?
