Well....

I am almost to my 4 week mark after having my little man, and I am already 1 pound away from being to my post-baby weight after Gabby. Yay!! It seemed like I would never see that weight again. I love nursing! Ha ha!! =0) Now, I am going to start a slow work-out schedule starting Monday morning, to see if I can get back down to my high school weight. Baw-hahahahahah...pause...baw-hahahahahaha! =0 I wish!!! I'm hoping to start a jogging program that I found online, called "couch to 5k"! I'm a fan of it on FB if you guys are interested!! =0) Can't wait to feel in shape again!

Love the cool air!!

Sonja and I decided to go ahead and take a walk today. It ended up being a hour long walk, and let me tell you, I feel great!! =0) There was good conversation and lots of time watching Pixie run through everyone's yards. =0) She did good too. That is Sonja's little wiener dog. She didn't slow down once and we walked almost 2 miles. It was so fun. Poor Gabby didn't enjoy it too much. She whined a lot and complained about pretty much everything. Poor kid. She had taken a two hour nap, which was long for her, so I think she was just crabby from that. Other than that, I just have to say it was a great walk and I feel energized!!! =0)

Lovely Pregnancy!

Well, I'm taking a bit of a hiatus from this blog. Exercising is on my agenda every day, however it isn't enough to really blog about. I haven't posted on here in awhile too, because I haven't felt very well. The first trimester really kicked my butt, you could say. =0) I'll hopefully be back in full swing, after the baby comes, especially since I want to drop all of the baby weight and more, since I have not enjoyed being overweight and pregnant. =0) Hope you guys are having better luck and enjoying the New Year already! =0) Love y'all!!

Well...

What can I say. It has been a long Month and it has gone by way too fast. I've been walking at least once every week, some weeks, three times. I wish it was more. My walking buddy has been super busy, so we walk together when we can. I do attempt walking with Zaidy, it just hasn't been as often as it should. Needless to say my weight has suffered. I've gained two pounds and have had some trouble trying to get rid of that. Ay! I hope y'all are having more luck. =0)

Don't ya just love Fall??

It is the best time of year as far as weather is concerned. You can wear shorts, sometimes, t-shirts too, and not sweat like crazy in them. It feels so good to breathe the air in and out and just feel clean. I love the smell of the season while I'm jogging especially or even walking. =0) I love doing both, however I have fallen behind a bit. I've gained 3 pounds because of it too. Today when I woke up, I knew I had to get crackin' on this so I can continue with growing my Family. =0) So far, all is well!! I'm hoping that I'll get a hold of my eating, once again, and be able to feel physically capable of exercising again. I feel like my whole body is just a huge lead weight when I'm doing anything physical. It's such a bummer! I felt nice and light when I would run before, simply because I was eating so much better and taking the time to just breathe and not feel overwhelmed with the fact that I have let go of my control over my body. What a pain food is! You either love it or hate, and even then it doesn't really matter because you are going to have to eat! =0)

Do I dare...

step on the scale. It has been almost two weeks since I jogged and so I attempted last night with Gabby and Zaidy and then tonight, with the two of them once again. Boy, talk about killer. I was dying after just a lap and I know that had more to do with the fact that I was pushing a stroller while trying to keep a dog from running away. What a bummer! Oh well, once again, time to start all over again!

Oopsie!

So the past three and a half weeks have been kind of depressing. I had been fighting with the fact that I had felt like I had gained a ton of weight. Right before, and the week after that lovely time of the month, I had felt bloated and really fat. I had not dared to get on the scale for fear of depressing myself into a eating frenzy. Which I will do, when the numbers on the scale have moved in the wrong direction. I know it is silly, and I shouldn't put too much of my thought into it, but it really, really bugs the mess out of me that I can't just will myself skinny. I know I have to work for it, so I can feel some sort of accomplishment and joy in having reached my goal. It's still a pain in the rear though, when a new day comes about and the scale isn't budging. ~sigh~ Well, I finally stepped on the scale this morning, just to see what the damage has been from my lack of walking/jogging in the last three weeks. To my great relief, and I am so very grateful to say, I actually dropped a pound. So I have lost a total of 13 pounds, even though it doesn't always feel like I have, just because I am still 23 pounds heavier than my pre-pregnancy self. Once again, ~sigh~. =0) Any ways, the fire has been rekindled and I am happy to work out every day once again and attempt to get my mile up to a mile and half, and then so on and so forth. haha!! Yay for the scale, I still love you! Hope you guys are doing great and having some success!!
