Fit and fabulous!

So you all remember my quest to be fit. Well I have not given up. I did however lose track a little bit. For a while I was so worried about my health and even scared to work out because I thought something serious was wrong with me. I have all but given up worrying about that now. So what does it mean? Well since I was concerned with my health I decided that I need to take the whole working out thing seriously. So I got a Gym membership. I've been working out 5 days a week most weeks. I joined April 27th and have been going strong ever since. I am in week 5 and feeling pretty good. Of course there are days when I don't want to go, or that I'm tired. But this far I've been able to power through and still make it. They have a daycare which I love. I never know when my husband will be home so I can't depend on him and really I don't have anyone who can watch the kiddos. So I go at my leisure. I enjoy the Total body toning class. Its only a half hour and usually I get there about 30 minutes before hand to do some cardio. On the days there are no classes I do cardio and weights. I'm very proud of myself and really looking forward to what the future holds with my work outs. Fit by 30 is looking better and better!!

4 workouts in

So at the risk of running off my fellow bloggers I will try not to post as much after tonight. I've done 4 workouts. I've been sore after every single one and during every single one. Tonight I didn't finish up as strong as I would have liked too. I think working out late in the evening kills my thunder. By this point I'm tired and feeling sort of burnt out. So I think tomorrow I will take off of my work out and walk. I'm determined and I don't want to burn myself out. I feel that I'm am getting stronger and some things are getting easier. But tonight some of them felt harder. I felt lazy and sloppy. So I think my body is saying "hey slow it down, you just gave birth 15 weeks ago." It feel like longer but since I haven't done really a whole lot but walking I know I need to be easy on me. Plus as everyone snoozes here I sit ready to clean house. I've got extra energy now. Lol.
I must say I'm proud though. I give it a lot of thought and I am looking forward to work outs. Just gotta squeeze em in. I will let you know in a week or so how its going. If your curiosity gets the best of you message me on FB;)
Oh and if I get the nerve I may post a before pic. But then if I don't stick with it you'll all know how I really look. Accountability or what. Lol

Its getting tough!

Today was my 3rd official work out. I was so proud of myself thinking it was my 4th, but since I skipped one I am behind one. Things are going good though. I've noticed my endurance picking up a little. I am of course going through all the withdrawls of being painfully out of shape though. Tonight after my work out I felt nauseous. I'm sure the fact that I waited until 11pm didn't help. But the baby was cranky and I was determined not to miss another work out. So once he went off to dream land(and my shows were over) I popped in my DVD. I love these work outs. 20 mins, with cardio and weight training mix. I wouldn't have thought it would work, but my muscles get tired. I feel weak and they burn, they burn good. So its working. Plus I'm breastfeeding, so I should be burning uber calories. I'm not going to give up. I want this bad!! Plus watching the bachelor and all the women fawning over him really motivates me. They are gorgeous and in shape. I can taste the victory. 27 days to go! Plus it feels so good and I swear I can already see a difference.

Good luck to my friends who are in the same boat! I can't wait to hear how its going:)
