What is your workout plan??

I just got the go-ahead to start being more active and I can workout, but I'm not allowed to do any ab workouts just yet (too scared to start anyway!) I don't know where to really start. Maybe I will start with walking and go from there.

What have you ladies done or plan on doing to get back into shape??

    I'm starting with walking. It's hard enough to get out of the house with LO for a walk, so for now that's good enough for me. In the  next few weeks I'll probably start doing some DVDs while LO is sleeping. I have a couple yoga ones, one postpartum DVD, and some Jillian Michaels DVDs. I'm taking it slow even though I really feel all back to my pre-pregnant self (as far as achiness goes).

    I started with Stroller Strides right at 6 weeks.  I like the workout and the time with other moms.

    At 3 weeks, I would walk.  At 6 weeks, I'd get back to the gym with machines or classes as long as it felt comfortable.

    I wish we had that here, it looks like so much fun.  I did by her DVD's though, the Mama wants her body back and I like them a lot, and I also do Jillian Michaels 30 day shred.  They are both very similar in format, and a quick and fast paced.

    This is what I did.  I didn't feel comfortable doing anything before 6 wks.  That said, I tried running shortly after the 6 wk appt and after ~10 min, my abs hurt the next day.  It took another 2 weeks to run comfortably and not be in pain the next day.  I'm pretty much back to everything I did pre-pregnancy but working back up to the level I was before and during pregnancy.
