Finally...

I just got back from a 20 minute run/walk. I only ran for five minutes and tried to briskly walk the rest. I thought I was going to die and got a side cramp...arrgh! I haven't gone running since the 10K I did in Moab last December and I ran the whole 75 minutes, no problem. It is so frustrating to feel like I am starting all over from scratch, but oh well. And even with two sports bras on, my boobs hurt. I know I'm whining, but I just hate how squishy and big I am right now. I have no clothes that fit me, but I don't want to waste any money on new clothes. Anyway, it will get better right??? I have been doing great on my water intake. I used to keep a water bottle on my bedside table because I'd wake up in the night and feel so thirsty. Now when I wake up I don't feel that way, which is really good (but usually I have to pee like a madwoman).
This week
Exercise--20 min run/walk, 100 sit-ups, 10 pushups
Water--70+ ounces everyday

Next week my mom is coming to visit so it should be easier to get out and exercise.
Goals:
Exercise--30 min run/walk, 3 times
Water--70+ ounces
And eat less peanut butter!

Water so far so good

I've finished my 90 ounce water bottle on Sunday & Monday and so far today I am doing good...I can already notice a difference in how I feel. I still feel too tired/lazy to go exercise (and it is so hot), but I have 4 1/2 more days left in the week. Back to my screaming baby!

New week...

So, here is a pic of myself taken by my husband without me knowing last week. Isn't Lucy so cute?!?! I've been deleting almost every picture of myself lately because I can't stand it. I am only posting this here because I know no one really visits this site anymore. Can you believe I went out in public dressed like that??? Good thing Stacey and Clinton from What Not To Wear didn't see me. No make up, wet hair, frumpy old prego shirt and brown flip flops w/ black workout capris. YIKES!!! And what is up with my horrible posture and saggy boobs? Needless to say, I am NOT a fan of my post-prego body. Onto my goals...

I did pretty good drinking water on Wed and Thurs, but Fri/Sat were super busy (and exhausting--I took all three girls to the doctor), so I did not drink much water. Today I've done a little better, but tomorrow is a new week! My goals for this week are to drink at least 60 oz a day AND go walking two days this week for 30 minutes. Thankfully, Sage has started sleeping 6-8 hours a night, so I should have the energy to get my butt moving! I'll try and check in here midweek...
