Body After Baby

Good week, not because the scale said so, but because my commitment to the gym was fierce! I did turbo kickboxing 4 X's this week and loved every class!! The scale barely budged at 0.5 lbs down but I felt amazing! I'm not loving the weight watchers online program. Plan to switch to meetings after my 3 months has ended.

Thanks to Samantha at Body after Baby for the questions/challenges. This week question was "what motivates me?"

I have a new baby girl so of course i want to be healthy so that I can set a good example for her as she grows into a lady so that she does not struggle with weight as I have, but I also have superficial reasons as well. one word: SUMMERTIME! It's not just about the bikini. I want to feel/look good in a tank top and shorts too!!

Looking forward to a new week! Hope everyone is still going strong!!

Got boxes of old photos??

Sent in about 400 pics to be scanned before Christmas and I love love love the job they did!! about 2 years ago I bought a $150 scanner all in one, but it takes time to get rid of some of the scratches and spots on aged photos! So i only scanned what I needed for my video montage and stopped.

Body After Baby -Week Two

The Goal- Drink 8-10 cups of h2o a day recording each one in my food journal. Work out at gym at least once.

Success! Although I dont feel very successful!! No weight loss this week! Even though I did 3 days of turbo kickboxing and serious saw my belly shrink before my eyes. Seriously, my baby blob, seems to be firming up a bit. Thank goodness!

Reflecting on the week I realize just how much of an emotional eater I am. I had one bad day at work and it practically ruined the whole week. I didn't just jump back on the horse like I had the week before with chinese food. This time I was feeding my emotions. BOY are they HUNGRY! lol. Anyways. It's a new week and I plan to keep going.

What is your favorite part of your workout? I would have to say my me time. I just posted this on my facebook "i thought working out with a baby would be more challenging, but it's actually more tempting. I get to leave the lil munchkin with daddy while i take a kickboxing class and hit a store on the way home! It's the best kind of me time!!"

My goal this week- Eat a healthy breakfast every morning!! It is the most important meal of the day! Make a habit!

Thanks to Samantha over at MamaNotes for posting the question of the week and I look forward to the mini challenges!

Body After Baby -Week One

The Goal: Start my food journal! Write everything I eat! No exceptions! Work out at the gym at least one time.

Success! My weekly goal obtained PLUS 3 lbs down. I know you are not supposed to rely on the scales as they can be deceiving but it sure feels good when they show you what you wanna see!! lol.

Like every weekend, I splurged. Had Chinese food (practically a buffet) with the family. Can never say no. But I jumped back on the horse by dinner. Before if I ate bad for one meal I would let it ruin my diet for the entire day or week even! But this time I just picked right back up.

Keeping my WW food journal is really my key to success. I only made it to the gym one time this week, but I am on my way to a 9am Core Central Class as soon as I post this!!

Hope everyone had a great week! Keep up the good work ladies!
