6 months postpartum as of Friday and I weighed in at 138, up a couple lbs from last week but I've been eating so many reeses cups this week and last week that I'm actually impressed that I didn't gain more than that. I don't have a lot to report this week, other than yes,… Continue reading 6 Months Postpartum Exercise Transformation

19 Weeks Postpartum and my delicious Oatmeal!
19 Weeks today and I weighed in at 139 this morning. Yay! I've broken into the 130s! And I pushed past my plateau. I cut out my protein snacks in between breakfast/lunch and lunch/dinner, and I also have not been adding protein powder to my protein milk after workouts. So I've effectively eliminated around 700/calories… Continue reading 19 Weeks Postpartum and my delicious Oatmeal!
18 Weeks Postpartum and rethinking nutrition
18 weeks postpartum today and I weighed in at 143. When I first stepped on the scale this morning it said 139 and I was so excited until I realized that a corner of the scale was sitting on a sock. So after levelling the floor, lo and behold, I'm actually 2 lbs heavier than… Continue reading 18 Weeks Postpartum and rethinking nutrition
17 Weeks Postpartum and Enfamil Enspire
17 weeks postpartum Friday and I weighed in at 141 lbs, 1 lb down from last week but not the lowest I've been so far. Still, at least I started my journey back down. I've worked out every day this week. Only 5 days left in the Full Circuit program and then it's on to… Continue reading 17 Weeks Postpartum and Enfamil Enspire
16 Weeks Postpartum and Spectra S1 pump
16 weeks postpartum on Friday and I weighed in at 142. I'm a little disappointed, I've been working out pretty hard this week and I don't think my diet has been that bad, but alas. These things happen and I remind myself that the extra weight this week may even be the water and fluid… Continue reading 16 Weeks Postpartum and Spectra S1 pump
15 weeks postpartum
15 weeks postpartum Friday and I weighed in at 140. Whew! Hopefully next Friday we will see 139. I'm hoping to continue dropping at least 1 lb/week until I'm back to 127, which would be 13 more weeks so I can (wishfully thinking) say I'm over halfway there! This week has been tough. I'm back… Continue reading 15 weeks postpartum
14 weeks postpartum, back to work, and Full Circuit
14 weeks postpartum on Friday and I weighed in at 141, same as last week. I'm not discouraged by this though, it's been a pretty stressful week. I went back to work on Monday, so it was a jolt in schedule for me. I realized that one of the twins is a super night owl,… Continue reading 14 weeks postpartum, back to work, and Full Circuit
13 Weeks Postpartum, Christmas and sick :(
13 Weeks postpartum on Friday and I weighed in at 141 lbs. I survived Christmas! Yay! Of course, it helped that we didn't do a big traditional meal, we had vegetarian tamales (black bean and sweet potato--sounds gross but it's delish!), spanakopita, and rolls. Of course, I also single handedly devoured an entire fruitcake all… Continue reading 13 Weeks Postpartum, Christmas and sick 😦
12 Weeks Postpartum, dodging thrush, and sick :(
12 weeks as of yesterday and I weighed in at 142 lbs. I'm finally beginning to see a physical difference from where I started which is very encouraging. I worked out with the darebee dailys every night except 2 this week, have completed the deadhang challenge without making it past 1:20 - 2 mins is… Continue reading 12 Weeks Postpartum, dodging thrush, and sick 😦
11 weeks postpartum and a lesson in overtraining
I weighed in at 144 lbs Friday, not much difference despite working out every day this week with the daily darebee workouts, getting to level 2 everytime. I'm getting into the swing of working out again and almost feel like I'd be letting myself down if I didn't. I'm experiencing some severe shoulder pain though,… Continue reading 11 weeks postpartum and a lesson in overtraining
