It's funny, now that I have no homework to do, I have more time to devote to writing...and blogging...and napping (sort of) and that's a weird thing for me! However, for those of you who read this blog (and hopefully enjoy it) it means that I will be updating far more frequently (knock on wood).
Like today's post for instance. That's two days in a row!
Anyway, back to my original thoughts here. For the last few weeks, I've been working to get myself into running. I've always enjoyed it even if it does make my poor little flat feet tender. And, along with this, I've been working to get back into shape and feeling better about my figure. Babies are a blessing, but the baby weight? Er not so much. But that's not the point. The POINT is that I want to be my best self FOR my babies, FOR my husband, and most importantly, for ME. So each wednesday I weigh in. And good, bad or otherwise, I consistently do this. I want to see progress. I want to accept the challenge to better myself. It's kind of fun.
So each Wednesday be prepared to share this experience with me.
Okay, enough blathering, on to results.
This week I've done a myriad of different activities:
Jumping Jacks (the kids thought these were funny)
Crunches
Leg Lifts
Ducky Lifts (it's like lifting weights, but the weight is MUCH cuter)
Running
Dancing
And I consider cleaning the house to be exercise so we're counting it!
And of course I've increased my water consumption and forced myself to eat something for breakfast (not the biggest fan of breakfast you see)
The RESULTS?
Loss of 1.2 pounds! Hooray!
Now let's just keep it up eh? And lay off the oreos...
