About a month ago, I happened to weigh myself one morning. This doesn’t happen very often because I am afraid of becoming addicted to the scale, afraid of what it might say—and because I keep the scale in a cabinet in the guest bathroom.
But on this day, the scale was out so I stepped on. And, of course, at two and a half months post partum, I was disappointed with the reading—in fact, I’d even gained weight since the last time I’d ventured onto the scale.
That night, as Hayden brushed his teeth at the sink, I lamented to Ryan that I was still struggling with my weight. To illustrate my point, I stepped on the scale.
“Oh, I don’t believe this!” I exclaimed. “Since just this morning, I’m like ten pounds heavier!”
Ryan smiled sympathetically, reached out—and took Rebecca from my arms. That’s one way to lose the baby weight.

lol, that’s awesome, Jordan. Definitely a fast way to shed those baby pounds. 🙂
HA HA! This made me laugh out loud! And just for the record, I think you looked FANTASTIC and extremely skinny at the Halloween party!
Ahh . . . losing baby weight. I don’t think I can even call mine “baby” weight anymore. He’s almost 8 months. Still, I do the same thing. I lose a ton of weight in the month after the baby is born, then I gain about 5 pounds back and can’t ever seem to lose it. Lame.
LOL – oh that is too funny! I like that weight loss method though – does it work with toddlers? 😉
That is hilarious!
Oh, Jordan, that’s too funny.
And it’s one you’ll be telling your kids for years to come!
Even after you’ve lost the real baby weight :).

Too funny! It’s that momnesia thing kicking in, and might just be the reason I’m having a hard time losing weight – I’ve forgotten I’ve eaten already!
