Day 1

Well today was very productive in my weight loss journey! I know this because I can barely move ha ha My back is sore, my legs are sore, my feet are sore, my arms are sore, but they are all good sore. I feel so great! I'm not really all that tired, just... well... sore! HA

Today I started the day off really well. LM1 woke up at 7:45 and after diaper changes and getting dressed we were off! LM1 got in his stroller and I wore my 20 lb, 6 month-old in my homemade Moby Wrap. We walked 10 blocks to the post office and it took me 40 minutes to get there and back. I think that was a pretty good start. Both LM1 and LM2 LOVE going for walks, or "going buh-bye" as LM1 calls it.

When we got home LM1 was really fussy and said that he wanted to go "nigh-nigh". Now, mind you, we got home at about 9:30, so he had been awake for a total of an hour and 45 minutes. Off to bed he went and he slept until noon. It must have been really tiring for him to sit in a stoller and eat while being pushed around every where. Yea, exhausting.

After the boys awoke from their naps i wanted to do some ab exercises and this is what I came up with: LM1 loves it when I bounce him up and down on my legs so I combined this with crunches for a pretty serious work-out. I turned on some rockin' tunes and got goin! LM1 loves to dance so my heart was pumpin and LM1 had a blast. I will definitely keep doing these. And yes, I actually did do the workout in my jeans, I have an extremely limited wardrobe. Come on, at least those are the jeans I wore before I got pregnant with LM2!

Well, around 4 I was getting antsy again! I was bored just sitting around the house like I normally would, so I asked LM1 if he wanted to go buh-bye, and immediately we were getting shoes on and heading out the door ha ha We walked about 4 blocks to my friend's house were the LM could play with their friends. Then we walked the 10 blocks and serious incline to campus for a visit with Daddy. LM2 fell asleep on the way there and LM1 shed major tears when we finally had to walk away from Daddy.

Conclusion: Today was an awesome 1st day. I may have started a little over-zealously, but I'm feelin great and ready for another day!
