So after DD was born, I had a few extra pounds I wanted to kick; and for the most part I did but obviously my shape was never the same. NOW I've been going through a lot of stress at work and have relied on an incredibly unhealthy diet to keep me going (office donuts, way too many iced cappuccinos, and an equally unhealthy diet at home for fast "freezer" meals). No I have a whole new set of pounds to lose that I can't blame on baby weight. I am not one for exercise, because to be honest, I have this real aversion to sweat. I hate sweating, it gives me the heebie-jeebies (weird, I know). It took a really long time to accept my new shape post baby and I've made my peace with it, but now I'm feeling insecure all over again! I need to get motivated. How do some of your lose weight? my sister swears by running, which I know would be good for me AND my border collie. I'm making myself try it this week setting a goal of 100 minutes (she said to start tracking in minutes not miles since I'm new to this) and see how it goes.
What do you mommas do to stay in shape? My schedule barely accommodates meals so a gym membership is out.
Re: Need to kick the weight
I worked out at a gym literally 3 times before I found out I was preggers again....I still have 25 lbs of weight I gained with DD that I never lost, so...after this baby is born I will have lunch breaks 3 days a week to try to get skinny again. I really enjoyed the gym- I felt great when I left.
ETA: I should add that I literally just started exercising last week for the first time since DD was born. I was heavy before and actually lost all of the weight I gained when pregnant, but still need pants a size bigger than before thanks to m0the redistribution of weight at my hips and stomach.
