It's my body, I want it back!
In 2009, two years after our daughter was born, I made great progress in taking it back. Lost 40 lbs and 16" off my entire body. Thank you, P90x! As you may have guessed, I stopped. I could give excuse after excuse, but it still doesn't change anything.
Today is a day of change! I may not be able to commit 100% to P90x, but I will do my best to complete at least one workout each day. If I cannot, I will get on the treadmill for a minimum of 30min -- the goal being an hour. Even if I have to have Jake in the carrier while I'm on the treadmill, I will do it. I have to! Besides, an extra 15 lbs strapped to me will burn more calories! While I was pregnant with Jake, I walked all the time on that treadmill, in the stores, etc. I knew I was toning up during that time, because even though Jake grew inside me, I didn't gain weight. So I know my body is more than capable of getting in shape!
My hips may try to stop me (labral tear and inflammation in the joints), but I need to push through. A little pain is not going to kill me, and the results of it all are much more memorable than the pain itself!
I hope that by the time TIm is back from AIT that I will not be recognizable -- must be careful not to reveal myself on skype ;) I want to be able to go hiking, bike riding, jogging, etc. without regretting it the next day.
I will not post my weight at any point. I will, however, continually update pounds lost, inches lost, interesting fitness info, yummy recipes, and any other fitness-oriented adventure.
ps. that 40 lbs and 16" was in 30 days, forgot to mention that, sorry. -03/26/11 9:35pm
