Bye Bye Baby Weight Week 2

Week 2:

This Week’s Loss/Gain: -2.4lbs (might be a bit off b/c I didn't weigh in last week)
Total Weight Lost: 32.4lbs
Weight to Go: 14.6lbs

Food:

1. I did all right with this, this week, I didn't always have 2 snacks a day but when I did they were decent snacks. I also ate 3 meals every day (at least from what i can remember).


2. As for soda, I only slipped up one day, when we went out to dinner and they just kept re-filling, and of course I kept on drinking!


3. I successfully drank 6 glasses of water each day, though it appears I don't drink much during the day and then drink a lot more/am really thirsty in the evening.

Right now I'm not going to count calories just yet. I'm going to see how I go making choices on my own.

Fitness:
This was good and bad.. The good is that I did something 4 days this week, the bad, not my goals, but I'm not disappointed. You see, it's just plain too hot to walk with Alex. The heat is just too much for him when it's 90+ at 9:00am. So I did the Shred 1 day and a short walk, took a hike 2 days, and went to the gym another day. The hike was shaded but I have to wear the carrier and it gets heavy. 1 day I carried Jim and the other, Kurt joined so he carried him. I did crunches 3-days and I'm up to 60 of each type (regular crunches, reverse crunches (just started to only at 40), and side crunches). So I'm not saying I met my goals, but I met a modified form of them.

Goals for this Week:

1. Drink 8 glasses of water every day.


2. Get exercise 5days this week.
   
   1. Visit the gym at least 2x this week
   
   
   2. Attend Moms in Motion 2x this week
   
   
   3. Either walk or do a video or go to the gym


3. Determine how/when to start running, goal 5K is October 30th

Bye Bye Baby Weight Week 1

Well tomorrow I'll be 7weeks postpartum, so I thought I'd start linking up with Tami. I had hoped to do so last week but was out of town and didn't get a chance to blog. My numbers are from the week before too, since I won't be home until late tonight to weigh myself.

Week 1:

This Week’s Loss/Gain: N/A (being week 1, I'm going to start from scratch)
I gained 41lbs over my pregnancy so that's where we're starting from (plus the few extra I want to drop).

Total Weight Lost: 30lbs

Weight to Go: 16lbs (though 21 would be ideal)

Food:
This week I'm focusing on getting in 3 good meals, and 2 (healthy) snacks. Sometimes I forget to eat. Drinking only 1 diet coke per day and starting with 6 glasses of water per day.

Fitness:
I was given the ok to exercise. I have been doing some walking. (Like a 4-miler yesterday). I have a mommy and me class to find out info on this week so I can go next week. I would like to start with walking 4 times per week (3-days for 2+mi) and doing forward and side crunches every day. So far I'm at 3 sets of 10 each day, building my way up. I also need to figure out my workout plan from now forward.

Goals for this Week:

1. Drink 6 glasses of water every day.


2. Walk 4 times and do crunches (at least 30/day).


3. Find out info for class, I've already paid/signed-up just need to know the location.

Next thing is to decide on a workout plan and figure out if I want to do Weight Watchers or just count calories.
