BAB Week #2

Body After Baby Week 2

How did I do last week with the goals I set for myself? Well, good on the water but bad on the exercise. I did loose 2lbs though :) My total point earned for last week are as follows

Tu- 4 points
W- 5 points
Th- 8 points
F- 6 points
Sa- 8 points
Su- 5 points
M- 5 points
Tu- 6 points

47 points total I may not have maxed out on water (80oz is more than half my weight so I don't think that's safe!) but I pretty much met my goal of water intake a day. Ok so it was off some days but still a lot better than the previous week! I also drank less Dr. Pepper in a day which is something for me.

Week 2's mini challenge is to walk/run/jog. Each 15 minutes of said exercise is worth 1 point with a max of 4 points. I have no excuses since I have the treadmill in the house now, & in the living room. I am also grateful she didn't measure by distance since the pedometer I recently purchased did not work and I have no way of knowing how far I have walked since the treadmill is old and the display no longer works.

Standing weight is 150lbs as of Saturday morning.

A New Challenge

Body After Baby Challenge Week 1

About a month ago I became really aggressive on trying to loose weight for the first time since having three kids in a row. Within 4 weeks I lost 10lbs and 3.5" overall which is pretty good progress. However, part of that time I was sick which helped with weight loss but halted my exercising. I was doing great too!

I was very glad to come across the Body After Baby Challenge that Mama Notes has started to help spark things back up. So for the next eight weeks I am going to do my best to pick up where I left off!

Starting Stats-

Height 5'4"
Weight 152lbs

Goals this week-

Drink a minimum 40oz of water a day
No more than 1 Dr. Pepper
Exercise 3 times

Sounds simple but it's not!

BAB (Body After Baby) Goals

To loose 12-17lbs which would bring me to 135 lbs.

My long-term goal is to get down to 120 lbs. I was 115 lbs and tiny before babies.

Well, here goes nothing!
