Ot. For Those Of You Who Workout??!!

[Country Kids]

I did awesome this last summer. I was walking in the morning and walking/running in the evening.

Then school started and there is no time at all. Between getting ready for the next day/homework/cleaning and trying to be in bed at a resonable time I just can't do it during the school year it seems.

I was actually in bed by 9:00 last night and it felt wonderful. I was only 3.5 hours though after getting off work and it was push, push, push all evening so I could do that.

I've been off my health kick a while now. I decided tonight I'm getting on my elliptical.

PS Daycare is great to have around ....everyone needs some advice from a personal trainer now and again::

I guess when you make it a way of life, it's no different than any hobby that anyone else has. Maybe your hobby is cooking or scrap booking, mine must so happens to be working out. My kids and husband are very understanding of it, becuase they have seen what I am like if I don't get into the gym or a good home workout. I must admit, that it is really a great way to release stress, anger and a great source of energy. Plus it always keeps me healthy and feeling good. you would be surprised how much healthier and happier you are when you are getting to do something you love every day. Especially something that helps keep you healthy. I feel good knowing that I like what I see in the mirror. Some say that it's egocentric to say, so, but nothing is better than looking at the results of all of your hard work...

I will admit that there are times when I am forced to take a break, but it's never more than a few days and I and everyone around me hates life when I can't. My mental health is really affected by the lack of it, so I keep on my routine as much as possible.....

My husband gets up at 4:30am to go to the gymn in the morning.

I do the school walk every day of the week...it adds up to 4 miles a day pushing my quint stroller. Three days a week I do the 15 minute Bum Bum Booty Rapido by Beach Body with the kids. They like the music. The other two days I go for a run in the evening when my dh gets home. I also run one of the two weekend days.

I have made it a way of life, just like those who can't wait to sit and just watch their TV show, I can't wait to get out there and work out..I crave it and desire it. My body cannot do without it.....

my dog freaks out if we don't go! Lol he HATES treadmill days. Lol

ahhhh that is so darn cute.... my old dog use to go get the leash right at 5:55 and follow me around the house until 6:00 when we would leave to go for our run.... I miss that dog and the beach.... Now I have to run in the smog....

Hey shout out to daycare---

I have 5 to 7 lbs left to lose from pre and post baby weight (I'm 5 ft, weighed 155 Jan. 2011 and now fluctuate between 110 and 113). I would love love to be 105 (what I weighed at high school graduation in 2004). Any tips? Thoughts? I've been at this weight now for about two months. I've lost several inches due to working out, but my weight has stayed the same. I'm starting to think it's not possible...

I plan to do 30 minutes in the morning on my elliptical before daycare hours and then another something during nap time...yoga or something low impact. I know I cant do anything after hours because I am just too exhausted by then. But doing mornings/naps has worked for me in the past.

my advice is to stop focusing on the weight.

are you lifting weights? Muscle weighs more than fat. With that being said, I would focus on what size of clothing you want to wear, but then again goes back to your type of work out as well as diet. ALSO, the last 7-5lbs are always the hardest to lose.

can you tell me what kind of workout you are doing?

sorry to hijack the thread....you can PM me if you want

[bluemoose_mom]

Sorry to hijack too! I did pm you daycare.

Thanks!

When I did fcc before....(I'm working on getting back into child care) Denise Austin was on from 6:00 to 7:00. Most of my kids came @ 7:30 to 8:00. This is one of my big concerns now. I want to have time to exercise. If I don't have kids till 6:30 then I'll exercise 5:30 to about 6:00 and again 5:30 pm to 6:00 pm. I like to do an hour a day.
