I just went to my son's six month WIC appointment, and when they weighed me, I realized that I am only three pounds away from my top preggo weight.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to eat on the run with two babies in the house and no partner to help out? I am a mama to one six month old DS and I take care of another baby during the day M-F for about 8.5 hours a day in order to stay home with him. I am a single mama, so I basically eat whatever I can grab.

More often than not lately, I have been going through the drive through at McDonalds to grab a burger and a diet coke. I know that is what is completely sabotaging my weight loss efforts, but I really, honestly have no idea what to stock in the house to keep it healthy and super quick.

I walk about 1-2 hours a day with the boys, so exercise is happening. It is just the food piece that I am stuck on.

Thanks for the tips. My childcare babe was picked up about an hour early today, which is a treat for me, so I took DS to the grocery store, and filled my cart with tons of fruits, veggies, yogurt, beans, and a couple of "healthy" treats (frozen raspberries and strawberries). I had big plans to cut them all up and bag them in portion controlled packs, but I then had a neighborhood meeting that I forgot about.

I did manage to eat a really healthy dinner of a turkey sandwich on whole grain bread with a ton of spinach tucked into it. I had a bowl of broccoli, green beans and some corn on the side and a dollop of low fat cottage cheese. It felt so good to have a healthy dinner for once this month.

I am going to make sure I get everything washed/cut/baggied up tomorrow after my CC babe goes home so I am ready for the weekend. (have to work all weekend this week too...

)

Oh, and I didn't buy any diet soda either.

Thanks so much for the encouragement.
