About

I’m 26 originally from the US but been living in Japan for about 3 1/2 years now.  Got married to my Japanese husband in Jan 2008, and then our son showed up (3 months early) in March 2008.  So basically March - beginning of June this year was spent pumping breastmilk and making the 2 hour train trip to the hospital every day to visit my son for the allotted one hour a day visiting time.  Needless to say there wasn’t a lot of time or energy left for me to worry about proper eating eating and exercise,  though I got quite a bit of walking and bicycling to the train station in since I can’t drive.   Anywho… He’s been home from the hopital since June and I’m finally starting to get into the swing of being a mommy and decided now’s the time when I need to start trying to do something about the baby weight and all that extra stuff that I even had before pregnancy.
