A new me!

Well, today is the day, about a week ago I had my 6 week check up and I got the go ahead to start working out again! I was so excited, I have really missed a good sweat! Considering we moved to Eagle Mountain and there is not a Golds Gym right down the street anymore, and we only have one car at the moment, I have had to think and get creative on what exactly I was going to do to lose this baby weight. It took me about a year to even star working out with Daniel, due to stress of his situation, and lack of motivation, but once I made the commitment I started working out in October of 2006 and by the time I became prego with Brielle, I had lost 35 lbs, yes....you read that right, sadly on top of the baby weight from Daniel I added a little more, I finally hit a breaking point, and had enough of not feeling confident about myself, so I got my self to the gym and had so much fun doing kickboxing, pump, and cycling. So this time around I was determined I was not going to let that happen again, right now I'm about 9 lbs from my pre-prego weight with Brielle, and so, that is my goal! Lucky for me Daniel and Brielle both decided to nap at the same time so I got my first day in, now its on to taking care of 2 sick little ones, sadly Daniel got sick over the weekend, and then got Jason sick, and then yesterday Brielle woke up with a cough...poor little thing, but when you have a sick toddler in the house....its hard to not pass it to everyone. Well, wish me luck, as I am determined to fit in my jeans soon!

GOOD LUCK! I'll be joining you in your quest to once again wear my skinny jeans here in about 13(ish) weeks. Way to be motivated, I might need some help in that department when I get the go ahead.

Hope the kiddo's get better soon!

Only 9 lbs left?! You'll have that off in no time! Hope the kiddos are feeling better soon!

Yay! Congrats on only having 9 lbs left to go - that's totally do-able.

So what are you doing this time to lose it?

Hey, June is 4 and I still haven't lost the baby weight. I have just restarted my workouts.
