NICU/Baby Diet

Okay, so this post isn’t about David exactly, and I’m sorry to say it won’t provide any new photos.

However, it does report other good news.  Kristina and I have been trying to watch what we eat and to work out more, in an effort to bring our weights down more to our preferred weights.  Well, interestingly enough, I can tell you today about a new diet — the “baby in a NICU” diet.  We found that while David was there, we weren’t snacking between meals (we weren’t allowed to eat in his room), and were generally eating in the hospital cafe, which tended to serve healthier versions of the food they prepared, and available in smaller quantities than found in restaurants.

As of this morning, since we first met David, I have now lost 7 pounds, and Kristina has lost 5 pounds.  We’re going to celebrate by having milkshakes!

Oh, and in other news, David slept a little more peacefully last night, allowing both of us to be a bit more rested today.  Who knows what tonight will bring, but one day at a time, right?

  1. sorry about the pudding pie. didn’t know you guys were dieting. if you don’t want it, I would be happy to take it back and enjoy it since I am not thinking of dieting at the moment:)

  2. Hey
    You may have come up with a great new diet!
    Maybe you can get this published and put sales in David’s college fund!
    be glad to do the front cover for you!

  3. Don’t worry, we’ll eat the pudding pie. We were going to have a piece last night, but then I went to take a nap at 7:30pm and it turned into a 7 hour nap. So, needless to say, I didn’t have dessert. However, if you’d like to come over and help us eat it at any point, we’d be happy to have you over. Just let us know!!

  4. Yeah!! So glad to hear you got some more sleep 🙂 I finally have 5 min to read through some of this and look at pictures!
