Mommy & Me Yoga

I got a Mom & Baby Fitness DVD and used it for the first time last week. Jackson loved it, and I loved it too because I got to exercise while entertaining him. He also got to do some yoga, and even got a massage out of it! The DVD is made by Parenting Magazine. I definately recommend it for those moms who have wee ones!

1 lb later....

So, I've only lost 1 lb in this effort to loose 40 lbs, but I have a positive outlook. My pants are too big, and thats always a good sign that things are going in the right direction! I'm sick this week, so I'm hoping to get better really fast in order to get back to exercising! I found another "skinny picture" of me. These photos always motivate me to get back to the shape I was!

This week's fitness goals...

1. Walk on Tuesday and Thursday.
2. Exercise with Fit Moms DVD twice this week.
3. Cut out on some sugary food items.
4. Eat at least 4 servings of produce a day.

Victoria Ave

Today my friend and I walked Victoria Ave with the kiddos and I must say I was reminded why I love Riverside. It was such a beautiful walk! My muscles also hurt from it, so it feels great to know that I got a good workout! Yea!

My Scale is Stuck

I weighed myself yesterday (Fridays are my weigh-in days) and I am still at 175. I know its not those Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwiches because I haven't had any in a while! :) I was told, however, by a friend of mine who has used my scale that the scale lies. She said the scale at the gym weighs her at less. At this point, I would love to think that my scale is lying.

On a positive note, I got out and walked a couple of times with a friend this week. It was good exercise and fellowship. We are going to get together twice this coming week too. I also walked once alone. Counting from last Saturday, I walked a total of 4 times this week! Yea! Today I'm going to buy a DVD called Fabulously Fit Moms and its basically a DVD for exercising with the baby. So we will see how that works out!

Three things...

First, Troy and I walked up Mt. Rubidoux on Saturday with Jackson in the Stroller (which is quite challenging on the way down). I would like to do that more often.

Second, I haven't lost any weight this past week. Booooo. Oh-well...I must persevere!

Third, Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwiches are the most AMAZING things!!! They are only 1.5 grams of fat, 140 calories and they have 3 grams of fiber! I don't know how they make 'em taste so good! I'm afraid its too good to be true...you know, like the non-fat frozen yogurt in that episode of Seinfeld? Hmmm...maybe that's why I didn't loose weight! :)

Update

It looks like I will be getting to exercise with someone (walking outside w/ the stroller) a couple times during the week, and a few girls on Saturdays, so I am very excited! The rest of the days, I will try my best to do some Tae Bo. I tried to do Tae Bo yesterday, but 13 minutes and 10 seconds into it, Jackson decided he had enough of watching his mommy punch and kick the air! I weighed myself yesterday and there is good news and bad news. I gained two pounds in Florida, but lost one pound within this week. So, I'm on my way to that goal weight of 135lbs! I just have to keep pressing on!
