Here is the public announcement of (hopefully) an inner change and resolve.
I have to get fit, and hopefully look better too.
I recently had my daughter, so I'm currently in post-baby phase. Post-baby phase also means that for a long few months I let myself eat whatever I wanted. With this being the last (planned) pregnancy, I said "this is the last time in my life that it will ever be socially acceptable to gain weight." Well, that time has passed and now I need to get serious.
Especially because my brother in law's wedding is going to be in less than a month. Challenge accepted.
There are a few things you should know about my food-eating habits, and just myself in general. I am impulsive. I am also a very impulsive eater. I can start things easily... the follow through is where it gets difficult. You've heard the phrase "the journey of a thousand steps starts with walking out the front door," or something to that effect, thus emphasizing that if you just start your journey at least you'll be on your way. I constantly poop out at step 30 or so... Only to walk back to the beginning.
So this part is easy. I'm focused. I actually woke up before my kids. I did my first work out. My challenge is that I need to stay focused so the tempting bite of warmy, gooey, sugar-filled granola bars that I make for my husband this afternoon can be refused. I need to stay focused so that I continue to wake up early on day 3, 4, & 5.
I'll clue you in on some of my focuses as the days go on. But for now, rejoice with me that I have found this lovely woman's tumblr page:

That includes this workout, "An easy Strength and Cardio Workout that Works the Entire Body," that I did this morning:

Now, off to the rest of my day... and that joyous, ever-so-delightful, and always truly earned... post-workout shower. Delicious!!!
