I'm Totally in, 7 months Post Partum here. I am below my pre pregnancy weight, but have basically no muscle tone, so trying to get that back is really where I'm at. And eating healthier, I had MAJOR French fry and buffalo wing cravings while I was Pregnant, and that French Fry habit wont die. Also can you recommend any Breast Feeding Safe Protein Powders?

Sooo one dog got a bath and the other dog has the nails trimmed on 3 out of 4 feet sooo Half way there? Seriously For being "big" dogs you come at them with nail clippers and it's like I'm coming at them with a baseball bat or something

Sooo I showed up because your Profile pic is a horse, and I miss my guy SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much (sold him when I found out I was Prego to a sweet little girl who was leasing him). I see that it has been said already but, JUST GO, worst thing that happens is you get there he's nervous, you go home. Best case, you go you have a blast, you make new friends. And as all horsey people know, a day spent on a horse is never a wasted day. Now excuse me while I go browse horse classified adds and dream of the day I can get another horse.

5/29 Ran w/ the hubs and the kiddo (Boo for pushing a jogging stroller) was slow and I don't want to talk about it 5/30 I gave myself another rest day, I just didn't feel "right" I was shaky and light headed, I'm thinking the coffee I had was too much? Idk 5/31 Regularly Scheduled Rest Day, I did clean a lot this day though Oh yeah I made a cleaning schedule my husband hates it and threw a 3 year old style tantrum that he's a big boy and doesn't need a chore chart I then told him to prove it and help me keep the house clean. He's done the dishes 1x, after I asked, repeatedly. UUUUGGGGGHHHHHHH 6/1 Ran felt AMAZING 6/2 Writing this on my lunch break instead of working out. It's all windy and looking like it's going to storm and I just want a nap, but I'm going to drink some coffee (WWWAAAAAY less than I had Tuesday) and try to get motivated to do my work out once I'm off

5/27 This happened to be rest day for me. We did get rid of the second bench in the garage, and I did my living room deep clean, so whine for keeping the house neater. 5/28 Went for a 1.5 mile walk the did my body weight work out with pull up progression. 3x 20 squats 8 Push Ups 20 Lunges 6 Negative Pull Ups 30 Second Plank 1 min run Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks!! I love my munchkin, I just want to set a good example for her. That is my dog Morgan, she's my running busy when it's under 80 degrees. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cooking Feat: Try 1 new meal Strength Feat: Do 10 Squats or 10 Push Ups every time I go back to my desk at work Climbing Feat: Only use stairs Combat Feat: Bathe both dogs and trim their toe nails (this totally counts as a combat, I promise)

My daughter just turned 7 months last weekend, The fact that I now have a child should no longer be an excuse not to take care of myself so here I am, feeling like I'm starting back at ground zero but I have a plan!! Run a 5k (I have promised myself new running shoes once I can run a 5k with no breaks) -Continue the C25K Program - Run 2-3 times a week Eat Healthier (I'm back at work, and once I get off I want to snuggle my baby and not cook so fast food has becoming an option waaay to often) -Eat out fewer than 2x a week -Only have soda while out Do a Pull Up (I still have never been able to do a pull up, it's like a life goal) -Continue Pull Up Progressions as part of Strength Work out -Work Out 2-3 times a week Keep a Neater Home (My house has been borderline gross lately and I'm over it) -Create a cleaning schedule that works for me and DH -Follow said cleaning schedule

You've inspired me to attempt a run when I get home (off work in 5 minutes YEEESSSSSS), I plan to go MUCH slower than you did, and also with much more "steady pace involved". But thank you for the motivation to get out there.
