A Much Needed Update

The last time I really updated was in October 2010!  I never revealed this on my blog, but the reason why I really stopped blogging here was because I was pregnant with my first child.  I know that you can incorporate exercise when you’re pregnant, but for me, I was really cautious and decided the most exercise I would do was walking.  I was also feeling really sick due to pregnancy hormones, and felt sick a lot.  Fast forward to April 11, 2011, I gave birth to a healthy baby boy and being a mother took over and didn’t give me much room to do anything else.

My son is now 4 months old now, and it really hit me last night.  I really need to get back into shape.  I need to take off the pregnancy weight and I want to be able to fit into the clothes I used to fit into before I got pregnant.  Getting rid of a bunch of clothes made me sad knowing that I couldn’t fit into them, and the idea of buying clothing sizes that I never thought I’d buy also made me feel bad.  So I decided there is no better time to make a change than now.  Because if I don’t do it now, when will I ever?

I bought Jillian Michaels’ Ripped in 30 DVD and I’m pretty excited to try it out.  I also plan to buy new sneakers so it will motivate me to keep at working out.  I also want to start eating a lot better than I am now.  I know it’s a lot to get back into a workout routine, but I want to do this.  It’s not only for me, but it’s for my son too.  I want to set an example for him as he gets older too.

I decided that in the coming weeks I am going to start rearranging some things at the blog too.  One thing at a time, but I’ll get there.  I really gotta get back into workin’ on my fitness!
