Body After Baby

Hello!

So I decided to start documenting my journey to get

 back in shape after having this sweet little

guy right here :)

He was born April 30th (day after my birthday) weighed 7lbs 06oz

Sweetest little monster ever! lol

 

During the last month of pregnancy I was so ready to get back

out there and start running again that I attempted it too soon

and hurt myself lol So after some resting I slowly tried again.

 

I started out by working back up to being able to run 2 miles.

After not running for 9 months that was a lot harder than I thought it'd be.

Last summer I ran outside mostly but this summer has been way too hot

so I've been running indoors on the treadmill 3 days a week.

On my off days I've been doing arms and abs if I'm not dead

from running then sometimes legs as well.

I'll make a post with all the fun details of my workouts soon!

 

It's been a little over three months since Dean was born, I have

gotten back down to my prebaby weight of 160.

I would love to get down to 145-150 but I'm just not sure

my body is capable of getting into that range without

having to starve myself and workout like a psycho on crack lol

So my goal is to keep working out and get toned.

The number isn't as important as getting toned and fit.

At least that's what I keep telling myself lol

I'm trying to stay positive and not be so damn hard on myself

Doesn't help that I have a very skinny younger sister (big hooker lol)

But she hasn't had any kids.

SO once again, be nice to yourself Sam! Grr

 

I am setting a goal to be kinder to myself

to eat healthier

and continue my journey to getting fit!

 

SO here is my progress so far!

 

 

 

1 Month after Dean                                      3 Months after

 

 

 

So there has been a definite improvement but I still have a long ways to go!

 

Hopefully putting this out there will help keep me motivated!

Check back and I'll post some more awesome info about my journey

to get fit!
