I made it 2 days so far counting calories and staying around 1800. It might sound low, but I feel like I was eating around 2200-2300 before being mindful and not losing any weight. I don't feel that I can eat more than that because I felt like I wasn't holding back. My genetics and metabolism are kind of crappy so I feel like I need to cut back not eat more. I don't feel like I am depriving myself at all. If I feel hungry, I'm going to eat - but be mindful of how much of things I am eating.
Now - carbs was a suggestion (and thank you for all of the suggestions!) How many carbs do you eat in a day? Mine is well over 200 and I didn't eat any bread, or pasta today. I did eat cereal. Do you cut out cereal too? Fruits, veggies, milk - all send it up there. What do you eat for breakfast if you are watching carbs? I almost always eat oatmeal,oatbran or cereal. I don't know if I will cut that out. I'm going to try for 2 weeks of counting and see if I see any results then re-evaluate! I don't feel tired so far, nor hungry. When I counted the first day, I felt like I was eating way more than that prior - so just being more mindful for a week or 2 seems like it will help!
I invite you to visit these blogs:
Angelea - food blog - Angelea came out of the wordworks and made a whole bunch of bids on auction day and has donated so much to help me to get sooo close to my goal ($246 to go!)
Danica's Daily - I made this eggplant lasagna for dinner tonight. It was AWESOME. Her blog has great ideas.

Operation Calorie Count
I try this every week and it lasts one day. I'm really going to try HARDER this week as the site of my stomach is motivation. I actually was starting to think somehow I was 3 to 6 months pregnant (from the looks of my gut combined with utter lack of motivation) and didn't know it. Luckily this morning I had to take a pregnancy test at the surgery center and it was negative - hah. Now, I don't understand how I could possibly be eating too much - what with working out pretty decently EVERY day and nursing, but I think that must be it. Otherwise I can't figure it out!
I don't want to cut calories much but want to be more aware. Today I went for 1800. I feel pretty decent. I think that is a good #, with max 2000, but this still seems high. I especially don't want to cut many out and decrease the milk supply. I'm at a loss though. 6 months out and I feel like I am gaining weight, when I wanted to be below my pre-preg weight. One thing that is killer is actually being at home all day. When I was working, I was walking up 3 flights to get to my classroom and so busy that I was eating only when I was really hungry. If you have any tips for me, please pass them along. I feel like I've given my body the opportunity to recover from pregnancy and have listened to it, but at this point, I'm ready to get rid of my love handles and get flat abs back! Rest of my body seems ok!
I didn't have much time to work more on the tabs, but will soon!

tabs...thanks
So I spent the morning working on tabs. I googled it and played around with code. It's a work in progress. Thank you for the comments on word press / blogger. Let me know what you think. One thing that I want to fix is how the picture is atop of every section (Nick- so that you have to scroll to get to the content) and I am still updating the content.
Thank you everyone!
Thank you everyone!
Thank you also for the feedback on the bake sale. The most common thing was the make it longer. It definitely would have helped and I wanted to extend it past Monday, but also wanted to be fair to everyone who made a bid on Monday. 4 boxes of purefit bars - retail $130 - went for $30. That was when I knew it was a fatal mistake to have only one day. 3 jars of peanut butter went for $27 but shipping was $20. Next time, I will know! I also learned alot about shipping, after spending around $80 on it. Check out USPS's flat rate boxes is all that I can say (after the fact)! Needless to say, I ended up raising a great amount of money because of you, and am super appreciative. I am $396.80 from raising $5000 (my personal goal). Some of you have asked me to post the link to donate so here it is! Thank you so much one and all - and especially the generous bakers!
I took Nick swimming today and it thundered outside and they cleared the indoor pool. Really? Never heard of that before!

Word Press versus Blogger
Some of you use Word Press and most use Blogger. What are your thoughts on each ? If you've checked out both, what were the pros/cons?
I signed up for Word Press, mainly because I want tabs. I want organization. I don't know how to do it in blogger. But, I am used to blogger and like the setup, besides the tabs. Anyone have advice?
I don't want to pay for someone to fix my blog up for me, but if anyone knows how I can set up tabs in blogger without changing much, would you let me know? And you word press peeps, would you let me know your thoughts, especially if you switched from blogger?
Thanks so much!

Feedback on the bake sale
What are your thoughts on the bake sale? If you didn't participate, what held you back from participating? I would love feedback to make it better if I do something like it again. The $20 minimum was to cover shipping for the bakers-it can be super expensive to ship!!
Tour
I *tried* to get up and run at 5am this morning for 2 hours. I didn't try hard, I just rolled over and went back to sleep. I ran for an hour in the morning then a half hour later on. I don't think I'm going to even try tomorrow to run in the morning. When I was running, and not into it AT ALL, the Tour was on. It was motivating and cool to watch and enabled me to finish. I think it is neat how the girls wear dresses the same color as the shirt that is being presented. I like the color thing. Lance - he can bike, he can run, can he swim? I wonder if an ironman is in his future...or past?
Baby Talk
When I was dating Bill, I was a wacko. He is from CT and I was living at home in PA. We would see each other on some weekends throughout the summer when we were both living @ home. When he would leave I would be in my room crying - yes crying, because I missed him so much. When I was growing up, I would be head over heels in love (or so I thought) with a boy - and he would be all I could think about, I devoted all my time to the boy and memorized his personal info, and just thought about him all day long. One of them was eating mustard and I didn't like it but ate it anyway. I was insane. It is in my personality - ALL or nothing and I took it to the extreme.
What does this have to do with anything? Lately I feel like I am a little wacko with Nick. I don't want anyone else putting him to bed or watching him. I don't want to miss a moment with him. I already miss the middle of the night holding him and him falling asleep on my shoulder. I don't want him to grow up before my eyes and boom! he's going away to college. I've been all emotional and weird about it and need to let go a bit. I am starting to think going back to work may have been the healthy idea for my attachment issue. I cannot imagine leaving him to go work 5 days a week for a minute as you know. No way! Some days though I just feel like the old me ended when Nick was born and here I am with a totally different life. It is weird. I think it will be hard for me when school starts up in a month. I miss the fulfillment of teaching and haven't been able to find part-time positions @ college level.
Oatmeal Flax Whole Wheat Pancakes (w/ blueberries and almond butter)
Some pancakes from today - it is a mix that you can store, adapted from King Arthur
3.5 cups oats
1/2 c flaxseed
4.5 c flour
3 tbs sugar
2 tbs baking powder
1 tbs salt
1 tbs baking soda
1/2 c smart balance oil
1/2 c hemp oil
(or just use 1 cup oil of your choice)
Put all ingredients except oil in the mixer and mix together. Turn on the mixer and drizzle the oil in while the mixer is running. Squeeze a clump in your hand. If it sticks together, it is just right. if it does not, continue to add 1 tbsp oil at a time until it sticks.
Store in the fridge indefinitely. To use, add 1 egg, 1/2 c milk and 1/2 c yogurt (1 c milk also works) and cinnamon to taste. I also added blueberries to this one and almond butter!

Happy Birthday to my Beez!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
!!!!
!!!! 
A very happy birthday to Bill, the best husband and dad that anyone could ask for!!
a great big thank you!!
I just wanted to thank everyone who participated in the bake sale! Most especially the bakers that made it possible - and all of you that bidded on items. It was a success and I was able to get closer to my goal! I made right around $800 that went directly to Dana Farber and came so close to my goal. I have until July 31 so I am going to try to raise my final 450 or at least get as close as I can!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, I AM VERY GRATEFUL! If anyone tries to do something similar in the future - please feel free to contact me for any help or questions! I saw this on a few other blogs and asked a few questions of the bloggers to get an idea and for some help - but I guess they were too good for me - no response. That left me feeling quite bitter!! I stopped reading those blogs. I will help anytime!
Thoughts on the bake sale:
It was really fun. I would do it again, with a few changes. I would let it run over the whole week to make sure I was getting people to check it out that might have been away on the one day. I wouldn't bake anything. I would really try hard to get outside bakers and donations. The baking to take pictures and then again to send out really took a toll - on my diet, expenses and my time! Having to ship the items to multiple people adds up, and some of the companies that donated shipped things directly to me and then I had to ship out which in some cases cancelled out any money that was made! A good deal of footwork went into setting it up, and so baking just took too much out of it.
There are still a few things that you can bid on - especially the Anzac cookies. I can't believe no one bid on them - they are SOOO good!! And from a native Australian!! (Lizzie!)
Swimming
I wish I had a setup like Mama Simmons where I had someone that could come watch Nick for 30 minutes while I finished swimming. It is like getting up before 5 to swim for 45 minutes and speed home to get back in time for Bill to leave for work. Sometimes Nick is sleeping when I get home, so I just wish I had a neighbor or friend that could just drink some coffee and read the paper until I returned!!
Masters swimming is out of college and older swimmers who get together and swim! Someone makes up a set every workout and it is like an organized swim workout on intervals. It is great - reminds me of swim practice back in the day. Unforunately I always seem to be one of the youngest people there with older people (like 40s/50s) kicking my a**. The good thing is that there seem to be a good # of triathletes so they can help me to get into one I bet!
Running
I don't know how I"m getting in a long run this weekend. I'm not interested at all. I have not really followed my training plan this week, I am just doing whatever I feel like. I plan to run the Philly marathon in November and tentatively Steamtown in October, but speedwise, I just don't feel like pushing it right now. I can't get motivated to do so. I'm so tired of my basement treadmill right now too.

I might become a total raw eater soon!!
My boy is going to be so lucky when he grows up. He's going to go over a friends house and realize that things like chips ahoy exist and real ice cream... meat...oreos? Non soy chicken nuggets? haha. Any vegan/raw/vegetarian eaters out there with kids? How did you raise your kids?
The awesome Amanda tagged me for 7 personality traits... so here they are - the good, the bad, the ugly:
1 - Organized - I can be borderline OCD with having things in their places and having no dishes in the sink when I go to bed. I can't leave the house for a weekend away without the counters being cleaned off and dishes washed.
2- Thoughtful - I like to make someone's day and try to help my friends wherever I can. I love just sending things out of the blue to tell someone that I love them.
3- High expectations - This is a bad trait. I have not liked something that a friend has done or how someone has responded or not been there for me, I really hold a grudge and I dump them out of my life. I can be really critical of small things, mostly with my parents, which I'm really trying to work on. I have very high expectations for people because I do for myself, which translates into me being hard on people.
4- Motivated - In general, I'm motivated to do my best, be my best and do what I set out to do. Right now my motivation is super low for running but I still truck through it. I want to be the best that I can be - both in my job, as a mom, wife, and overall life. (rhyme!)
5- Creative - I like making things for people like cards, necklaces, pictures, food!, wedding countdown boards, ... I won't buy anything that I can make on my own.
6- Inner/Hermit/Quiet - Not sure of a good word for this one, but this is another trait I am working on. I'm quiet in that I won't stand up for myself all the time. For instance, one time in daycare they fed Nick formula that was in the diaper bag and I should have flipped out, but I didn't say a word.
Sometimes when I see people from the past that I recognize, I picture myself having an invisibility cloak on - thinking they won't recognize me. I have a self-worth issue sometimes, thinking people won't remember me or want to say hello. If they don't say something, I usually won't either.
Also, lately I realize that I need to tell the people that I love that I love them more often. I think about it - but I don't show it all the time. For instance, Bill. I think about how much I miss him during the day and how much he means to me, and think of things that I want to tell him, or something will remind me of him, but then when he gets home, I'm focused on having "me" time and getting things done that I wanted to do all day, and then it is time for bed. I do the same with my parents - instead I give them a hard time about things. In general, I need to work on showing the people that I love that I really love them!
And last, I'm a hermit in that I prefer being home. I don't like traveling anymore. I like my routine and would just like to be home!
7 - Hard core, Type A - I am usually all in or all out. I've been a vegetarian since I was 13 which kind of sums up my personality. One day I just decided that I wasn't going to eat meat anymore and I just stopped eating it! If I set my mind to something, I do it. If I don't want to do something or be somewhere, it is made known to everyone (usually just by looking at my face).
Masters, Baking
SWIM
I'm happy to report that I was up and out to get to the Masters practice both Monday & today . I got there before 5:30 and swam till 6:15. On the first day you never know where to swim, and I started in a lane which turned out being all middle aged men that kicked my A**!! I kept telling myself I could make it for 45 minutes. Today I moved over with the ladies in the next lane that seemed to be going more my pace! The first set was 16 x 100s. There is no way ever that I would do it on my own. I'm definitely swimming faster and more motivated to swim. I wish that I could stay later and finish the workouts, though. I need a live in nanny to watch Nick when Bill leaves for work (around 6:40) until I get home. It is good for me to workout with a group and socialize in non baby talk. Next Tues I have having minor wrist surgery (it is called de quervains release - a problem that I think started from typing up midterms in Jan '08 using equation editor and cut and paste to put the exams online), so I will be out 10 days but will return to do it when it is healed.
RUN
Blah.
