Control Pantyhose are a girl's best friend
So between work and the baby, I am finding it so hard to squeeze in exercise. I wanted to have lost all my pregnancy weight by now but after I pick up my little one from daycare and come home, all I want to do is hang out with my family. I know, I know, I could just leave for 45 minutes and do a quick workout but I am just drained when I get home. Dinner, a movie and my two guys are all I want to do. So now I am a solid size 10, up from an 8. Some people can't notice but I can when I look at myself naked in the mirror. Oh what pregnancy does to the body. I feel so much pressure to get the weight off by springtime. Plus my best friend is getting married and wedding pictures are forever. If I could just take off 10 pounds by the end of May, I would be happy. It's totally possible to do in a healthy way, even with breastfeeding. But I quit Weight Watchers to save some cash and now I am wishing I didn't because all their online features and tools were really helping me. I am hoping if B and I get a little more stable I can join again by March. Okay, no more ranting. I don't want to think about my extra pounds right now.

Just wanted to encourage you sis. It's not easy juggling your needs and the needs of those you love. You keep doing the best you can. You'll get to your goal.
Was thinking maybe you could get with some DVDs . . . Jillian Michaels has one called 30 Day Shred. Three 20 minute workouts increasing in intensity. You could most likely squeeze that in more easily than going to the gym.
About WW . . . sorry you can't do it right now! Sucks. have you checked out spark people? Maybe they have some resources you could use.
(((hugs)))
hey darlin,
Have no worries, you'll get the weight off soon enough- i know its hard. But you are enjoying time, LIVING, with your new family. Even 40 min away is 40 min you can't get back, and they grow up so fast... cut yourself some slack and enjoy being fabulous (whatever size you are). If you want to work out at home- there are tapes and programes that involve the wee one- giving you both a little exercise and bonding time... I love and miss you- we'll talk soon...
