Rough start. Beginning with the diet; which is actually fabulous and tasty, but got tricky as the week wore on. By Saturday I was losing it. We are doing the Baby-Led Weaning method of introducing solids to the tiger cub; so that means he eats finger food portions of whatever we’re eating. It also means as a family we adapted what we eat a little as well. Most of the diet is a little advanced for the tiger cub, and what was left didn’t interest Daddy at all so I spent half the week making two breakfasts, two lunches and three dinners.  Top it off with the tiger cub laughing at me during the first half my workouts, and crying for attention through the last half – Not an easy week. By some stroke of grace Sunday I woke up with my motivation renewed and my sanity intact, perhaps it’s because I’ve lost a pound, possibly from the hair on my head, but a pound nonetheless. I knew this was going to be tricky, and if I had found that balance before I wouldn’t have needed mommyfit so badly.  Bring on week 2.
