I feel like I’ve written this kind of post one too many times and then let my goals fade into the background. It’s one of those generic … I’m going to get fit posts … sorry if it’s a tad dejavu!
Since having Jaspy I’ve become fitness lazy; not lazy lazy, oh no, I’m far from that; but when it comes to getting fit and healthy I’ve been slack to say the least!
I’ve written my postpartum posts; my healthy eating posts and my ‘new me’ style posts; but sitting here I realise that I still look the same as before, I’m still eating the same and I’m still the old me.
I don’t drink enough water, since it’s been cold I don’t walk every day and I don’t give myself the pamper I need. That was fine before but now that I’m suffering from serious back pains, a depressing flat butt and a lack of energy – I’ve had a bit of a wake up call!
So, I’ve started stretching, mum bought me the BackPal to correct my posture and last night I joined the local gym. I’ve gone for the all inclusive package so not only can I do my Zumba and Spin classes but we can take the boys swimming and me and Pete can do rock climbing date nights!
We did a big food shop this week and got a better variety of food tan usual to get me back motivated in healthy eating and I’ve started taking my Starbucks flask with me every where to push me to drink more water.
I will be weighing myself but to make sure that I’ve put on weight. I’ve never been one for weighing as loosing weight was never an issue but I really do feel like I need to gain some now. I lost my curves completely after Jaspy and I’m really looking to gain a bit of weight even if it’s all muscle. So the scales are set in the bathroom and I’m going to try to stick to once a week, I don’t want to get too anal about it!
Wish me luck guys,
~J~

21st January 2015 at 7:31 amGood luck hun! I’m exactly the same since having Toby, I’m at my healthiest weight to be fair, but so low in energy and don’t look after myself. I’ve started a Facebook group called From Blogging to Jogging and a weekly linky on my blog if you fancy joining xx
