Body After Baby Challenge: Week One
Body After Baby
Week One
Mama Notes is hosting an 8 week Body After Baby Challenge for Dec 2010 / Jan 2011 and I”ve decided, totally spur of the moment, to give it a whirl. Technically, I will not be cleared to exercise, etc for another 2 weeks as the baby was born on Nov 1 via c-section, but I can certainly start planning, start out slow, and work on eating habits.
If you are coming over from Mama Notes, HI!!! I am Christy, mama to a brand spanking new baby boy, born on November 1 and to a rowdy, keeps-me-on-my-toes four year old boy, and wife to a firefighter. My favorite pasttime is creating blogs. (Getting them established and actually posting on them is sometimes a different story, heehee.) My home base is Shake The Salt, but I’ve also created Sweet Posh Baby, Florida Fun Reviews, Savvy Frugalistas, and Simply Sensational Divas Review. Right now I am working on Christmas Gift Idea features on Sweet Posh Baby and Christmas deals on Savvy Frugalistas. I hope to welcome new editors at Savvy Frugalistas in the very near future, but there are still a lot of kinks I have to work out before I go full steam ahead with it.
As I write this, I have a screaming one month old that I should probably get back to, so here’s to typing a little faster. He has these times at least once a day, for hours, where he is just very restless and I almost have to hold him non-stop to help him settle. Maybe it is meant for me to have that time each day to stop everything and take a breather.
I am very excited about taking this challenge and meeting other great ladies that will be participating.
From Mama Notes:
This challenge is about coming together as woman and moms to lose that extra “baby” weight and improve our overall health.
This week you should focus on what your goals are and what your plan is to get there.
My goal is to, obviously, lose weight. I’m not setting a number, since I still have to “take it easy” for 2 more weeks AND I’m nursing the baby, but I want the number to go down.
My plan to work toward that goal:
1. Drink water. I hate water, so any little increase will make a difference. I haven’t decided how much more, but I do want to increase my water intake.
2. Exercise. Once I am cleared to exercise, I’ll need to start slow and gradually build up a routine. With the brand new baby, the holidays, and other things going on, plus with me quite simply not being used to having exercise in the routine, it will take some getting used to. I have the Wii and some various workout DVDs – one with a weight ball type thing – so I will probably utilize those. I also want to add in some walking.
3. Eat healthier. I can’t do complicated and I eat a ton in the middle of the night since I’m up anyway. I need to make sure that whenever & how often I eat that I am making better, healthier choices. I have to be realistic. If Ifeel hungry, I’m going to eat, even if it is at the worst possible time of day for my metabolism.
I know those are atypical plans, but it is a start. Hopefully I can expand on them once I am able to sit and think and focus on the upcoming 2 months. My birthday is Feb 1, so what a great birthday present to myself to have this challenge end up a success!
