I’ve had four babies in 5 years.   I have been continuously pregnant and/or nursing for almost seven years straight.  These two things combined definitely take a toll on a mama’s body.  And while I generally lose my baby weight pretty quickly, over the years the scale had been slowly creeping upwards.  Even though I’ve been passionate about eating nutritious, whole foods for years—I was discouraged to see that despite feeding my body well, I was still slowly gaining weight.  Most days I found solace in the Lord and in knowing that my body was growing and nourishing another human being. So, so cool.  But it’s still no fun to look…
