  What's the plan this week?
  I am attempting the following:

  Monday: 5 Miles, Back & Bis

  Tuesday: 3 Miles, Shoulders & Tris, Abs (JM: Six Week 6-Pack, Level II)

  Wednesday: 5 Miles, Back & Bis

  Thursday: 3 Miles, Shoulders & Tris, Strength (JM: 30-Day Shred, Level II)

  Friday: 5 Miles, Back & Bis

  Saturday: Free day--if I get a run in, cool. If not, that's fine.

  Sunday: 5 Miles, Shoulders & Tris

  
  

  What WAS the plan last week?

  Same as above, only Levels I of the DVDs

  
  

  Did you stick to it?

  Pretty close! Dailymile tells me I did 25 miles last week. 

  
  

  Are you pleased with progress so far? 

  Well, no, not really when it comes to weight loss. It's stalled in the last week. I lost 7 pounds in two weeks, and I was all "YEAH" and then I lost like 1 pound last week. I realize that is a perfectly normal and healthy number, but I was sort of hoping for miracles.

  
  

  I AM pleased with running. At this rate, I might be back to half marathon status by the spring.

  
  

  What are your struggles?

  I'm just so tired. I always get a good stretch where A naps from 1-3/4, and it's always a struggle to force myself to go then, rather than take a nap. 

  
  

  Name one exercise you actually LOVE to do.

  Duh. Running.

  What's the plan this week? Start working out on Saturday. I might even attempt Friday but we'll see. 

  
  

  What WAS the plan last week? No plan.

  
  

  Did you stick to it? Sure did!

  
  

  Are you pleased with progress so far? Nope, I still have 24 lbs until pp weight. 

  
  

  What are your struggles? Juggling 2 kids and breastfeeding. I don't necessarily like working out while still breastfeeding. However, the bigger struggle is having the baby and a toddler at home.

  
  

  Name one exercise you actually LOVE to do. I'm a runner too and love the sport.

  What's the plan this week?

  I'm on week 4 of C25K and planning to add in the 30 Day Shred one day this week.

  
  

  What WAS the plan last week?

  Week 3 of C25K

  
  

  Did you stick to it?

  I did!

  
  

  Are you pleased with progress so far? 

  Very.  I feel really good!  I think I've lost about 5 pounds since I started exercising after my 6 week visit and my belly appears smaller to me.

  
  

  What are your struggles?

  Timing.  I find that I have to get dressed for a workout first thing in the morning, then make myself start running as soon as the baby goes to sleep.  If DS1 is not at school, I bring him downstairs with me to play near the treadmill.

  
  

  Name one exercise you actually LOVE to do.

  Hmmm... I usually love jogging.  I really love pilates but don't do it often enough.
